Cocktail recipe

Rating

3.59 / 5
The Tropical Foam is a vibrant cocktail designed to bring together the sweet, fruity tastes of summer. It combines the refreshing tang of pineapple juice with the soft, sweet notes of melon liqueur and the zesty kick of lemon juice. These fruit flavors are intertwined with the botanical complexities of dry gin, which adds a layer of sophistication to the drink. Fizz from the soda water gives the Tropical Foam a bubbly lift, making it an invigorating choice. Typically served in a hurricane glass, this cocktail offers a tropical escape, embodying a playful balance between sweet, sour, and fizzy elements.
