Eddy DelightCocktail recipe
Rating
The Eddy Delight cocktail is a refreshing and fruity concoction that perfectly balances the tartness of citrus with the sweetness of blackcurrant. With its vibrant orange and purple colors, this cocktail is visually appealing and offers a burst of flavors on the palate.
Its main ingredients include 120ml of orange juice, 10ml of lemon juice, 60ml of gin, and 30ml of blackcurrant cordial. The citrus juices provide a zesty and tangy base, while the gin adds a subtle botanical note.
The blackcurrant cordial brings a touch of sweetness and a deep berry flavor to the cocktail. This combination of ingredients creates a well-rounded and summery profile, making the Eddy Delight a perfect choice for a sunny afternoon or a night out.

FAQ's
Can I substitute blackcurrant cordial with something else in the Eddy Delight?
Yes, if blackcurrant cordial is not available, you can use crème de cassis or a mix of blackberry syrup and a little bit of lemon juice as a substitute to mimic the tartness and fruitiness.
What garnishes work well with Eddy Delight?
For the Eddy Delight, a slice of orange or a twist of lemon peel makes an excellent garnish. Adding a few blackcurrants or a sprig of mint can also add to the visual appeal and complement the flavors.
What is the best way to serve an Eddy Delight to enhance its flavor?
Eddy Delight should be served cold in a highball glass. Fill the glass with ice and stir the mixture well before serving to ensure it is chilled thoroughly. This helps enhance the flavors and makes the drink more refreshing.
How does the alcohol content of Eddy Delight compare to a standard cocktail?
The alcohol content of Eddy Delight is approximately 10.91%, which is slightly lower than many standard cocktails, which typically range between 12-40% alcohol by volume. This makes it a milder option, suitable for those who prefer drinks that are less potent.
Is there a non-alcoholic version of Eddy Delight and how can I make it?
Yes, you can make a non-alcoholic version of Eddy Delight by substituting the gin with a non-alcoholic spirit or more simply, with sparkling water or ginger ale. Keep the rest of the ingredients the same, and you'll have a refreshing, alcohol-free beverage.
