Paradiso
Cocktail recipe

Rating

3.75 / 5
The Paradiso is a vibrant cocktail that boasts a tropical and fruity flavor profile. It combines the sweetness of triple sec, a liqueur made from the dried peels of bitter and sweet oranges, with the succulent taste of strawberries and the tartness of pomegranate juice. These fruity elements are balanced by the unique grassy and slightly funky notes of cachaça, a Brazilian spirit made from fermented sugarcane juice. A dash of Angostura bitters adds a subtle layer of complexity to the cocktail. Typically served in a cocktail glass, the Paradiso exudes an aura of exotic escapism, making it a refreshing choice for those who appreciate lively and bold fruit-forward concoctions.
