Fat FrogCocktail recipe
Rating
The Fat Frog is a vibrant, often neon-hued cocktail that gained popularity due to its simplicity and sweet taste, which stems from its ingredients, typically consisting of bottled alcopops. A quintessential party drink, it is known for its mesmerizing blue color, achieved through the inclusion of blue WKD, which is mixed with Smirnoff Ice, a type of clear malt beverage.
Both of these ingredients contribute to its fruity and sugary flavor profile that makes it particularly appealing to those who prefer lighter and more refreshing drinks. Served in a pint glass, the Fat Frog creates an eye-catching presence and is intended to be enjoyed cold.
