    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

    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.
