I suggest a cold drink with a low alcohol content. One of the countless galaxy of simple and cheap cocktails with cola in the composition.
Recipe:
1 part of Riga Black balm
2 parts cherry juice
2 parts of cola
Mix all the ingredients and pour them over ice into a tall, narrow glass.
My notes:
The recipe for this cocktail came to me in a booklet that was attached to a bottle of Riga Black balm – and it is extremely minimalistic and good for everyone. In general, this booklet contains many good recipes of varying complexity and for different occasions, and, in addition, most of the cocktails from it are really good. And the balm is a pretty good bitter at a standard price of about a thousand rubles per bottle. Thanks to the guys from Latvia – it’s not surprising that they have balsam bars there that are entirely dedicated to this drink.
Summer is a great reason to buy cherries and make one hundred percent homemade cherry juice, including for this cocktail. In principle, of course, the difference between purchased and homemade is not very noticeable, but with 100% juice, the taste turned out to be a little more saturated and tart.
And yes, this cocktail is not sweet. It’s quite a man’s potion. Although, of course, if you take a very sweet coke, then maybe something else can come out. If anything, I use Dr. Pepper is my favorite brand of Cola.
Your health.
