Ingredients
Scale
Main Liquors:
- 1 ounces (30 milliliters) raspberry liqueur (like Chambord)
- 1 ounces (30 milliliters) vanilla vodka
Carbonated Mixer:
- 4 ounces (120 milliliters) lemon-lime soda (such as Sprite or 7 Up)
Garnish and Optional Elements:
- 1/2 teaspoon edible silver shimmer dust (optional, for a magical effect)
- Maraschino cherries
- Ice
Instructions
- Chill the cocktail shaker by adding a generous handful of ice cubes to prepare for mixing the vibrant ingredients.
- Pour the raspberry liqueur and smooth vanilla vodka into the ice-filled shaker, ensuring precise liquid measurements.
- Vigorously shake the mixture for approximately 10-15 seconds to thoroughly combine the flavors and create a frosty consistency.
- Select a tall glass and fill it with fresh ice cubes to maintain the cocktail’s cool temperature.
- Carefully strain the shaken liquid from the cocktail shaker into the prepared glass, allowing the drink to cascade smoothly.
- Gently pour lemon-lime soda over the liquor blend, creating a delicate fizzy layer that enhances the drink’s refreshing profile.
- Use a bar spoon to softly integrate the soda with the existing liquors, ensuring a harmonious flavor distribution.
- For an enchanting finishing touch, delicately sprinkle a whisper of silver shimmer dust across the cocktail’s surface, creating a magical, sparkling effect.
- Complete the presentation by artfully threading maraschino cherries onto a decorative cocktail pick and perching them elegantly on the glass rim.
Notes
- Infuse the vanilla vodka with extra vanilla bean for a more intense, richer flavor profile.
- Chill the glass beforehand to keep the cocktail colder for longer and enhance the drinking experience.
- Use fresh, high-quality raspberry liqueur to ensure a vibrant and authentic fruity taste.
- For a non-alcoholic version, swap vodka and liqueur with raspberry syrup and clear sparkling water.
