Make me a simple cocktail using medium sherry.
Cocktail Colin says:
If you're looking for a simple yet elegant cocktail using medium sherry, the "Sherry Cobbler" might be the perfect choice for you. It's a classic cocktail that dates back to the mid-19th century, and its symphony of fruity flavors makes it quite enticing. Here's why it's great and how you can make it:
The Sherry Cobbler combines both sweet and dry sherry as its base, giving the drink a complex and nuanced foundation. Bright orange juice and tropical pineapple juice add a refreshing, fruity touch, while a hint of maraschino cherry liqueur adds depth and a teaspoon of sugar syrup balances out the flavors with a bit of sweetness.
- Ingredients:
- Sweet sherry: 15ml
- Dry sherry: 60ml
- Orange juice: 7.5ml
- Pineapple juice: 7.5ml
- Maraschino cherry liqueur: Teaspoon
- Sugar syrup: Teaspoon
- Glass: Highball glass
- Alcohol content: 14.11%
- Details: Cold. Alcoholic. Shaken, not stirred.
To make the Sherry Cobbler, simply combine all the ingredients in a shaker with ice, give it a good shake, and strain it into a highball glass filled with fresh ice. Garnish with fresh fruit and mint for the visual and aromatic allure. This cocktail is not only easy to make but also refreshing, making it perfect for sipping on a warm day.
