Smooth Sheets
Cocktail recipe

Rating

3.57 / 5
The Smooth Sheets cocktail is a fruit-forward and refreshingly sweet concoction, designed to tantalize the taste buds with a harmonious blend of flavors. It combines the sweetness of peach schnapps with the tartness of blackcurrant cordial, and is smoothed out with the depth and warmth of whiskey. Served chilled in a lowball glass, this cocktail is typically topped up with lemonade, which adds a fizzy, refreshing dimension to the drink. The resulting flavor profile is one of sweet and sour notes, balanced with the complexity of whiskey undertones. The inclusion of a lime garnish brings a zesty finish to this colorful, mixed beverage.
