Cocktail Colin says:

4/5

The Surfing Soursap strikes a delightful balance between the tropical tang of soursap juice and the zesty kick of lime, perfectly complemented by the refreshing hint of mint. The white rum adds a smooth, warm undertone, while the soda water gives a bubbly lift, making this cocktail a zesty and invigorating choice for party-goers.

FAQ's

To prepare the Surfing Soursap cocktail, add the soursap juice, lime juice, sugar, mint leaves, and white rum to a cocktail shaker filled with ice. Shake well until the mixture is cold.

INGREDIENT_SUBSTITUTIONS

Can I use a different type of rum in the Surfing Soursap cocktail?
