Bakewell Tart is a sweet and tart cocktail that takes its inspiration from the classic British dessert. The drink incorporates a delicious combination of lime juice, cranberry juice, lime cordial, amaretto, and grenadine to create a perfectly balanced and refreshing concoction.
The tangy lime and cranberry juices provide a zesty kick, while the sweetness of the lime cordial and amaretto adds a rich and nutty flavor. The addition of grenadine not only enhances the sweet factor but also lends a beautiful pink hue to the cocktail.
This drink is perfect for those who enjoy a fruity and slightly nutty flavor profile. So, whether you're looking for a unique twist on a classic British treat or simply craving a delicious and refreshing cocktail, Bakewell Tart is the perfect choice.

FAQ's
Can I substitute Lime Cordial for something else in the Bakewell Tart cocktail?
Yes, if you don't have lime cordial, you can substitute it with a mixture of fresh lime juice and simple syrup. Use about 15ml of fresh lime juice mixed with 15ml of simple syrup to replace the 30ml of lime cordial. This substitution will give you a similar balance of sweetness and tartness.
What’s the best way to serve a Bakewell Tart cocktail?
The Bakewell Tart cocktail, given its vibrant and sweet nature, is best served cold in a highball glass. To enhance its presentation, consider adding a lime wheel or a maraschino cherry on top for garnish. Additionally, ensure the drink is well shaken before serving to properly combine all ingredients, offering a balanced flavor.
How does the alcohol content of the Bakewell Tart compare to a standard cocktail?
The Bakewell Tart cocktail has an alcohol content of 2.8%, which is quite low compared to most standard cocktails, which typically have an alcohol content ranging from 10% to 25%. This makes the Bakewell Tart a lighter choice, suitable for those seeking a less potent beverage option.
How can I customize the Bakewell Tart cocktail to make it sweeter or stronger?
To make the Bakewell Tart cocktail sweeter, you can increase the amount of grenadine or lime cordial, or add a bit of simple syrup. If you prefer a stronger drink, you might consider adding more amaretto or incorporating a shot of vodka or rum. Adjust the ingredients gradually to suit your taste preferences.
Is there a non-alcoholic version of the Bakewell Tart cocktail?
Yes, you can create a non-alcoholic version of the Bakewell Tart by substituting the amaretto with a non-alcoholic almond syrup. Keep the other ingredients the same, and you'll have a delightful non-alcoholic beverage that captures the essence of the original cocktail.
