Are you ready to tantalize your taste buds with this colorful and sweet fruit tingle cocktail? The beautiful and vibrant-colored drink features a creative blend of vodka, lemonade, blue curacao, and raspberry liqueur that will surely leave you wanting more.
Fruit Tingle Cocktail Ingredients
You’ll need:
- 1 cup ice cubes (or enough to fill the glass)
- 1½ ounces vodka
- 1½ ounces blue curacao liqueur
- 6 ounces lemonade
- Splash of raspberry cordial (such as Razzmatazz, Chambord, etc.)
- Pineapple wedges and/or raspberries for garnish.
Substitution And Additions
VODKA: You do not have to use top-shelf vodka, but I do, however, recommend using a good quality one that you enjoy drinking.
How to Make This Fruit Tingle Cocktail Recipe
OUR RECIPE DEVELOPER SAYS
We served the fruit tingle in a hurricane glass, but a stemless or stemmed wine glass would also work. A highball glass would also show off the colorful layers nicely.
STEP ONE: Fill your cocktail glass with ice.
PRO TIP:
You can also pour the liquors and lemonade first and then gently add the ice to fill the glass. The raspberry cordial will sink to the bottom of the glass because it has the highest sugar content (so it is the heaviest).
STEP TWO: Add the vodka, blue curacao, and lemonade to the glass. Stir.
STEP THREE: Drizzle the raspberry cordial over the top; you can pour it over the back of a spoon to direct it down the inside of the glass if you’d like. The raspberry cordial will sink to the bottom, creating a layered effect.
PRO TIP:
The color of your layers will depend on the color of the raspberry cordial. Most readily available raspberry cordials are a darker burgundy color and will make a deep blue-purple layer on the bottom.
STEP FOUR: Garnish with fruit.
How To Serve
This pretty layered cocktail is a fun addition to any party and a great way to show off your bartending skills. Serve with a platter of cucumber bites and stuffed mushrooms for delicious appetizers.
