Giffard Pink Grapefruit Liqueur 700 ml

Product Information

Do not pop the expensive stuff for a mimosa! Any cheap, but good champagne is good for a mimosa. Prosecco is the wine of choice in a bellini, while champagne is used for mimosas. It’s bright, very refreshing while being both sweet and tart at the same time. The balance of sweet and tart flavors will vary depending on the grapefruit you select. It uses pink grapefruit juice, fresh lime juice, blanco tequila, and grapefruit liqueur (secret key ingredient!). Why you will love this recipe:

Fresh Pink Grapefruit Juice: you can use fresh squeezed or store-bought grapefruit juice, but fresh-squeezed usually tastes best. Once you get to the point of straining out the pulp and rind, gently wring the cheesecloth to extract all of the liquid and juice. Make simple syrup by cooking 1 cup water with 1 cup sugar in a small pot on medium heat until all the sugar had melted. With: Vodka, Suze, bianco vermouth, sugar syrup, pink grapefruit juice, Peychaud's bitters and egg white. We say: Bittersweet gentian is the prevalent flavour (hence the 'Suzie' name), toned down by bianco vermouth and freshened with pink grapefruit over a fortifying grainy vodka base. Peychaud's subtly adds its distinctive flavour.

More Cocktails

We say: Spirit-forward and bittersweet yet balanced and eminently drinkable. Reminiscent of an old-fashioned but with the option to enjoy as an aperitif. We say: A wonderfully delicate and dry aperitif. Genever provides a bready spirituous base over which flavours of gentian, fennel and absinthe are layered.

Fresh Squeezed Blood Orange Juice:you can use fresh squeezed or store-bought blood orange juice, but fresh-squeezed usually tastes best. The martini is a bold drink so while the fruit tempers the alcohol a bit, it’s still vodka forward. With: Bourbon, cognac, Suze, dry vermouth, amaretto, sugar syrup, Peychaud's bitters and Angostura aromatic bitters. The mimosa is said to be invented by a bartender at the Ritz Hotel in Paris in 1925. Coincidental? Maybe, maybe not.We say: A fruity bittersweet aperitif with "orchard fruit, citrus and bittersweet gentian sipped through a sarsaparilla-like layer of Peychaud's Bitters." Keep in a cool dark place and strain out the grapefruit zest after two weeks.. Age at least two more weeks. The longer you age it, the smoother it becomes. The spirit base for cordials is often neutral, but it certainly doesn't have to be. A robust spirit like whiskey, for example, can mix beautifully with other flavoring agents. Common flavors include fruits ranging from stone fruit to citrus and berries to nuts, as well as coffee and chocolate and even aromatic spices and seeds. Some liqueurs include a touch of cream to round out the other tasty elements. This is the perfect fresh grapefruit margarita! It's more than tart than sweet, as all margaritas should be, and it's bursting with fresh grapefruit and lime flavor! As a bartender, I've seen my fair share of trends come and go. But one combination that has consistently stood the test of time is elderflower and gin.

These fruits are then macerated or steeped in alcohol, allowing the flavors to infuse and develop over time. Some recipes may include additional spices or herbs to enhance the complexity of the liqueur.It also pairs well with other spirits, such as tequila, gin, and vodka, making it a go-to ingredient for mixologists looking to create complex and flavorful drinks. There are many different categories of liqueurs and the lines between these are often fluid. There are: These roasted grape sweet potato crostini scream sophistication (like a martini) but are pretty easy to whip up. We would love to hear your opinion on this topic. Let us know your favorites, and which one we should try or possibly add to the list. We say: A bittersweet refreshing drink for a summer's afternoon or an aperitif with grape and peach fruitiness and complexity courtesy of gentian and fresh mint.
