Admiral White is a refreshing and fruity cocktail that is perfect for a hot summer day. This cocktail originated in Russia and is a popular choice among sailors and navy officers, hence its name. The combination of Peach Schnapps, white rum, vodka, and lemon vodka creates a well-balanced flavor profile that is sweet and tart with a strong kick from the alcohol. The peach schnapps adds a burst of tropical sweetness, while the white rum and vodka provide a smooth and crisp base. A slice of lime is added to give a hint of citrus and a pop of color to the cocktail. Served on the rocks, Admiral White is a go-to for those looking for a fruity and boozy drink with a touch of sophistication.
