Cocktail recipe

Rating

3.56 / 5
The Red Smoothie Lips cocktail is a vibrant and fruity concoction that presents a mix of sweet and tart notes. Combining the robust, tart flavor of cranberry juice with the sweet, tropical essence of melon liqueur, this refreshing beverage is rounded out with the clean, strong kick of white rum. The addition of lemon-lime soda adds a fizzy component, balancing the sweetness with a zesty edge. The drink's bright red hue and alluring flavor profile make it a charming choice served in a classy champagne glass, which makes it well-suited for celebratory occasions or as a tantalizing summer refreshment.
