Legally Green
Cocktail recipe

Rating

3.68 / 5
The Legally Green cocktail is a simple, refreshing drink that combines the crisp, clean taste of vodka with the tart sweetness of apple liqueur, topped off with a fizzy lemonade. Designed to be served cold in a pint glass, this concoction offers a delightful balance of flavors where the tanginess of the apple and the citrusy zing of the lemonade complement the neutral spirit base. It's a bright, effervescent beverage that can be enjoyed as a casual sipper or as a fun addition to social gatherings. The name "Legally Green" suggests a playful nod to its vibrant hue and possibly the feeling of carefree legality one might associate with enjoying a good cocktail.
