Cocktail recipe

Rating

3.88 / 5
The Anka cocktail is a fruity, vibrant drink that combines the sweet and nutty flavors of peach schnapps and amaretto with the tropical essence of pineapple juice. The inclusion of grenadine not only contributes to its sweetness but also adds a beautiful gradation of color, reminiscent of a sunset. Typically served in a cocktail glass, the Anka is a refreshing choice, well-suited for those who enjoy a balance of almond-like notes from the amaretto with the fresh and juicy flavors of peach and pineapple.
