Jealous June
Cocktail recipe

Rating

3.68 / 5
The Jealous June is a vibrant and fruity cocktail that combines the sweet and citrus notes of Cointreau with the tropical flavors of pineapple juice and melon liqueur. The addition of white rum provides a smooth and subtle alcoholic backbone, tying together the melon and pineapple for a refreshing and summery drink. Its name suggests a playful and possibly envious character, much like the feeling of a warm June day inviting you to indulge. Typically served in a cocktail glass, the Jealous June offers a tantalizing burst of flavors that can transport you to a sun-kissed beach with every sip.
