3.53 / 5
Bottle Caps is a unique cocktail that combines sweet, tangy, and bubbly flavors to create a refreshing and whimsical drink. Its name is inspired by the candy of the same name, as the ingredients used in this cocktail mimic the fizzy and fruity taste of the popular candy. The base of the drink is made with raspberry liqueur, which adds a burst of tartness and a deep pink color. The root beer schnapps brings in a delightful creamy vanilla taste, while the lemon-lime soda adds a zesty and effervescent element. The result is a playful and nostalgic cocktail that will take you back to your childhood days of enjoying bottle caps candy. Served over ice, this cocktail is perfect for summer or any occasion where a fun and delicious drink is needed.
