Amaro Kalimotxo

cocktail Sep 1, 2019

 

It is not that often that we mix red wine and coca cola. It might seem like a very odd combination but we can almost guarantee that the first sip will convince you. This quencher is so delicious, and the odd ingredients pair surprisingly fantastic together.⁠

⁠The sweet coca cola, in this case Fritz Kola, somehow mellows the harshness of the red wine, resulting in a silk smooth cocktail that taste 50 percent childhood and 50 percent sophistication.⁠

We simply love how recipes you might frown upon at first can turn you completely over and make you kind of fall in love with them.⁠
