Miss Piggy
Cocktail recipe

Rating

3.8 / 5
The cocktail Miss Piggy is a distinctive blend that combines the rich, robust flavors of whiskey and port with the fruity sweetness of WKD Red, a popular British alcopop. Served in a highball glass, this cocktail offers a layered taste experience, where the deep notes of the whiskey are complemented by the lighter, sweeter undertones of the WKD Red and the complex flavors of the port. The resulting drink is a bold fusion of flavors that might appeal to those who enjoy a stronger, fruit-tinged alcoholic beverage.
