Cocktail Colin says:
Classical Lady offers a delicate balance of fruity and citrus notes from apple vodka and Cointreau, set against a backdrop of white grape juice for a smooth, refreshingly light taste. Suitable for those who enjoy delicately flavored cocktails, it’s a refined choice for an elegant gathering.
