Cocktail recipe

Rating

3.7 / 5
The J-Lo cocktail is a luxurious and fruity blend that embodies a celebratory spirit, reminiscent of its namesake's star quality. Crafted with a base of smooth vodka, the drink is brightened with the fresh citrus notes of orange juice and the subtle effervescence of champagne, which adds a sophisticated sparkle to the mix. The inclusion of raspberries lends a tart sweetness, offering a balance to the zestiness and complementing the complexity of the champagne. Served in a highball glass, the J-Lo presents a vibrant red and orange hue, making it not only delicious to taste but also a feast for the eyes. It is a cocktail that promises both elegance and a burst of flavorful excitement.

Serving suggestions icon
