As I use a snake or serpent as my avatar of choice in nearly every aspect, and this is a combination of my favourite flavours in a delicious, sweet cocktail, I think the name fits. The name "Snakenip" is a play on words with "Catnip", as this is my favourite cocktail of all time. ~ Dominic, known around the internet as DomTSVG.

Method
How to make a Snakenip

Serves 1 · Takes 3 minutes
Add ice to a highball glass
Pour in two shots of apple cider-flavoured whisky
Without mixing, add in a splash of grenadine
Fill the rest of the glass up with lemonade and stir lightly
Garnish with cherries and a lemon slice, and serve
~ This cocktail is sweet but you can make it less so by adding less grenadine or lemonade. My preferred whisky for this particular cocktail is "Serpent's Bite" apple cider whisky. The blend should have a very light red tint in the yellow of the lemonade, and look orangeish. ~

Can I substitute the lemonade in Snakenip with another ingredient?

Yes, if you're looking to substitute lemonade in a Snakenip, you could consider using a sparkling water with a fresh squeeze of lemon or lime for a similar tangy and refreshing taste. This substitution can also reduce the sugar content, making it a bit healthier.

SERVING_SUGGESTIONS

What is the best way to serve a Snakenip for maximum enjoyment?

Snakenip, being a cold, non-alcoholic drink is best served in a chilled highball glass. To maximize enjoyment, ensure that the lemonade is well chilled and consider adding ice cubes or crushed ice to keep it cool, especially in warm weather.
