This blend is absolutely delicious! Its vibrant color and sweet, fruity, herbal notes make for a summer cocktail to share.
Absolut Vanilla Vodka lays down a smooth, creamy base, wonderfully complemented by the fresh, delicate flavors of Humble melon from Distillerie du Quai. This Quebec melon liqueur is exquisite and low in sugar. Maison Sivo's Liqueur de pêche Sivo enriches this fruity profile. Made from the maceration of real peaches, this artisanal liqueur captures the very essence of the fruit: it's sweet, juicy and has a pure, typical ripe peach flavor. Maison Sivo is renowned for its meticulous approach and respect for ingredients, which is reflected in the quality and authenticity of this liqueur.
The cocktail also contains fresh lime juice, which balances the homemade basil syrup. This syrup conveys an herbaceous, slightly peppery note, making it a perfect match for the fruity flavors. The crushed pineapple chunks release a tropical juice, which blends perfectly with the other ingredients. Finally, a touch of light Tonic 1642 adds a gentle effervescence, making the drink light and sparkling.
A piece of pineapple and a head of fragrant basil are used to garnish the mixture.
