Green Dream
Cocktail recipe

Rating

3.63 / 5
The Green Dream is a vibrant, refreshing cocktail known for its striking color and tangy flavor. This drink combines the clear, smooth essence of vodka with the zesty tang of lime cordial, and is further complemented by the unique fruitiness of WKD blue—an electric blue-colored, fruit-flavored alcoholic beverage. It is balanced with the addition of cider, which introduces a crisp and slightly sweet apple undertone, giving the cocktail an interesting twist. Typically served in a pint glass, the Green Dream is a popular choice for those seeking a fruity and colorful beverage to enjoy in a casual setting.
