Forgotten Fruit
Cocktail recipe

Rating

3.68 / 5
The Forgotten Fruit cocktail is a vibrant and fruity concoction that marries the tropical and melon notes of melon liqueur with the rich, sweet flavors of crème de banane. This mix is then balanced with sour mix to add a zesty tartness, and a generous amount of orange vodka infuses a citrus kick, creating a layered taste experience. Served in a cocktail glass, the presentation is enhanced with a colorful garnish of strawberry, apple, and pear slices, offering a visual nod to the 'forgotten fruits' the drink is named after. This cocktail offers a lush and refreshing taste, ideal for those who enjoy a sweeter, fruit-forward beverage.
