Cocktail recipe

Rating

3.84 / 5
The Mighty M.I.T. is a vibrant and energetic cocktail that combines a unique blend of tropical and citrus flavors with a stimulating kick. Its ingredients include coconut rum, which contributes a sweet, tropical essence, and melon liqueur with its distinct fruity note that pairs well with the zesty and slightly sweet orange liqueur. The inclusion of vodka provides a clean, strong base that is rounded off by the warm, sugarcane notes of white rum. The cocktail is topped off with an energy drink, giving it a fizzy boost that not only energizes but also helps to balance the sweetness of the liquors. Served in a highball glass, the Mighty M.I.T. provides a compelling mix for anyone looking for a lively and flavorful drinking experience.
