Summer is almost here and with the warmer weather comes the need to mix up something more refreshing than normal to help battle the heat. Meet the Cointreau Blush, this summer it will be making its début in many bars around Sydney, designed especially for the Australian summer this number tastes fresh, tangy and is extremely refreshing.
You don’t have to leave home to enjoy this cocktail though, like most great mixed drinks this one shines with simplicity. All of the ingredients can be found at your local supermarket and kept in the fridge without having to worry about spoilage (the lime is the exception) making it a great drink for unwinding after a long work day.
Ingredients
- 30mL Cointreau
- 1 Fresh lime
- Pink grapefruit juice
- Soda Water
Assembly
Take a long glass add your Cointreau and some ice, a dash of soda water, some lime juice, then top up with the grapefruit juice, garnish with a lime slice and your done! You may want to play with the amount of soda water added according to your personal preferences though. I found the cocktail a bit tart for my liking with just a dash of soda, the addition of bit more took the edge off the tartness though and made it very easy to enjoy!
