AbortionCocktail recipe
Rating
The Abortion cocktail is a bold and potent drink that is not for the faint of heart. It is often served as a shot, making it perfect for lively parties and gatherings.
This controversial cocktail gets its name from its bold crimson hue, which resembles the color of a newly formed embryo. It is made with a combination of vodka and grenadine, giving it a sweet and tart fruity flavor.
The addition of the tangy grenadine not only gives it a unique taste but also adds depth to the drink. Just like its name, this cocktail is not to be taken lightly, as it packs a punch and is not suitable for those with a weak palate.
Overall, Abortion is a unique and flavorful drink that is sure to get the party started.

Abortion's striking concept, marked by its vivid red color from grenadine matched with the clean sharpness of vodka, invokes robust yet simple fruity flavors. It cuts straight to the chase, offering an intense experience that’s as bold in taste as it is in appearance.

FAQ's
What type of vodka is best for the Abortion cocktail?
For the Abortion cocktail, a high-quality, neutral-flavored vodka is recommended to maintain the balance of flavors without overpowering the grenadine's sweetness. Grain or potato-based vodkas are suitable choices.

The Abortion cocktail is best served cold but not over ice. Chilling the vodka and grenadine beforehand will ensure the cocktail maintains its intended flavor profile and temperature.
How does the alcohol content of the Abortion cocktail compare to other shots?
With an alcohol content of 26.67%, the Abortion cocktail falls into the mid-range category for shots. It's stronger than liqueur-based shots but not as potent as shots made with overproof spirits or neat high-proof alcohol.
What occasions are suitable for serving the Abortion cocktail?
