What cocktail can I make to surprise my wife that we are going on holiday to Florida?

Cocktail Colin says:

Surprising your wife with a trip to Florida calls for a cocktail that embodies the sunny, vibrant spirit of the Sunshine State. The **Orlando Quencher** seems tailor-made for this occasion. This cocktail is a citrus-forward delight that beautifully captures the essence of Florida with its refreshing blend of tangy orange and lemon juices, perfectly complemented by the smooth kick of white rum. The addition of lemon-lime soda adds a bubbly effervescence, creating a thirst-quenching drink that mirrors the exhilarating warmth and zest of a sunny day in Florida.

Served in a highball glass, the Orlando Quencher not only looks appealing but also offers a zestful and invigorating taste experience. Its bright citrus notes can evoke the excitement and tropical vibe of Florida, setting the perfect mood for revealing your exciting holiday plans. This cocktail can serve as a symbolic toast to the adventures awaiting you both under the Floridian sun.
