Cocktail Colin says:
The Saint Clement’s is a zesty nod to citrus bliss, combining the sharp sweetness of orange juice with the lively kick of lemon-lime soda, creating a refreshing and fizzy experience in every sip. This effervescent concoction not only tantalizes the taste buds with its sweet-tart interplay but also pays homage to its British roots through a light and frothy texture, perfect for anyone seeking a non-alcoholic option bursting with flavor.

FAQ's
What is the origin of the name Saint Clement's for the cocktail?
The name 'Saint Clement’s' is inspired by the traditional nursery rhyme 'Oranges and Lemons' which mentions several churches, including St Clement's, that historically were in the vicinity of citrus markets in London. The cocktail's use of orange juice pays homage to this association.
Can I make Saint Clement’s an alcoholic drink if I want to?
Yes, you can easily transform the Saint Clement’s into an alcoholic beverage by adding a spirit of your choice. Vodka or gin are popular options that blend well without overpowering the refreshing citrus flavors. A standard measure would be 1.5 to 2 ounces, depending on your preference.
What kind of orange juice is best used for Saint Clement’s?
For the best flavor in Saint Clement’s, it’s recommended to use freshly squeezed orange juice. This ensures a refreshing, natural taste without the added sugars or preservatives found in some store-bought orange juices. However, if in a pinch, a high-quality, pure orange juice without added sugars can also work well.
How can I adjust the Saint Clement’s cocktail if I find it too sweet or too tangy?
If the Saint Clement’s cocktail is too sweet for your liking, you can reduce the sweetness by adding a bit more lemon-lime soda for a lighter flavor or by incorporating a splash of fresh lemon juice for added tartness. Conversely, if it's too tangy, increase the amount of orange juice or consider a splash of simple syrup or agave nectar to add sweetness.
Is the Saint Clement’s cocktail suitable for all age groups?
Yes, the Saint Clement’s cocktail, being non-alcoholic, is suitable and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It's a great option for parties or gatherings where guests might prefer a non-alcoholic refreshment or for those looking for a delicious and healthy alternative to sugary soft drinks.
