Really? First log a five star? Yes, and justly so. This drink is the reason I started this blog in the first place. After discovering this incredible cocktail I felt that I needed to share this with others. And for someone as busy as myself, it takes a lot of convincing to take up yet another thing with which to occupy myself. But I digress; onto the drink!
This drink has exceptionally well-balanced flavours. Each flavour can be picked out free of guessing and work together in perfect harmony. This cocktail is the liquid version of "The Avengers" movie with regard to balance. It has just the right creamy richness, and the alcohol mostly disappears. It is not overly sweet and is quite refreshing. This is a perfect summer cocktail and would be enjoyed by any palate. I look forward to enjoying this one again!
Note: Midori and Cocktail are not to scale. Else that would be one hell of a big martini glass punch bowl, or a 50 ml bottle of Midori; either of which would woefully impractical.
