This is one of those recipes that shouldn't really work, but at the end do so! Because who would have thought that super bitter Campari, super sweet blackcurrant liqueur and super sour lime could form such a wonderfully complex, tasty and memorable drink!⁠ ⁠ So do you trust us, and drink composer Rafael? The truth is in the pudding - and if you do go ahead and try it - then let us know what you thought.⁠ ⁠ (It's worth mentioning that we found the recipe in Gary Regan's cocktail bible “The Joy of

This drink gets such a nice ruby red colour from the cassis. And it tastes as good as it looks. They smokiness of the mezcal combines with the sweet liqueur in a really pleasant way. The sparkling club soda helps refresh things and it all turns out in the most delicious of ways.⁠ The Tarnish Recipe from “Tequila & Mezcal” by Sondlo & Rapp Ingredients: 1,25 oz mezcal⁠ 0,25 oz rhum Agricole⁠ 0,25 oz crème de cassis⁠ 1 oz lime juice⁠ 0,5 oz simple syrup⁠ Club soda⁠ Mixing: Shake all ingredients

Yes we are using vodka! It's rare but this is proof it does happen!⁠ ⁠ But this punch is topped up with so many other good things, or how about gorgeous Swedish cassis liqueur from Hernö Gin [https://hernogin.com/] and bubbly Monopole Champagne?⁠ ⁠ Long-drinks are nice and we usually have them with our weekend dinners. Even though we would never say no to a glass of wine, sometimes switching it for a good low ABV cocktail can be so good.⁠ Russian Spring Punch Recipe by Dick Bradsell⁠ Ingredien

It's when the purple crème de cassis blends with the other three pale ingredients that this drink comes to live. Enhanced by some purple synthetic feathers and lime zest a really colourful cocktail is born. Crème de cassis is supposed to float on top of the drink in this recipe, but it just doesn't work. The density of the blackcurrant liqueur is way too high (thanks to the sugar) to work as a float. But even when the liqueur dives to the bottom of the glass it still looks pretty pretty. Secon
