A fruit tingle cocktail is a brightly blue and purple colored drink that has a sweet fruit flavor. It’s a perfect treat for any summer get together.
What is a fruit tingle cocktail?
A fruit cocktail is made of four simple ingredients. Those are lemonade, vodka, blue curacao, and grenadine or raspberry cordial.
One of the fun things about this drink is the gradient color that goes from Blue to purple. The Chambord is what helps the color change just like in a black opal and a black martini.
It is surely a crowd-pleaser for any get-together with its bright color.
This super sweet and fruity drink it’s particularly great for the heat of Summer however it works well for any occasion. If you like this drink you may also enjoy
How to make this drink:
Even though this drink has a flashy look to it it is fairly simple and easy to make.
Equipment:
Ingredients:
- 3 oz lemonade
- 1 oz vodka
- 1 oz blue Curacao
- 1 oz grenadine or raspberry cordial like Chambord
- (optional) Garnish with Lemon wheel or Maraschino cherries
Instructions:
Step one
As you get started, the first thing you want to do, is together your equipment and ingredients together.
Step two
Next, you want to fill your glass with ice almost all the way to the top.
Step three
Then, using your jigger, measure 1 oz of vodka and pour into your glass over the ice.
Step four
Now, again your jigger, measure 1 oz of blue curacao and pour that into your glass with the vodka over the ice.
Step Five
There are two ways to get the purple coloring of your fruit tingle.
What we like to do, is to next measure and pour 3 oz of lemonade into your glass and lightly stir.
Then take 1 oz of raspberry cordial or grenadine and pour into your glass which will sink and create a purple gradient color.
You may also pour the lemonade and the grenadine in your glass at the same time which will again cause them to mix creating a purple color.
Step six
You can garnish the drink with a lemon wedge or wheel. Or a couple of maraschino cherries.
