World cocktail
“Cosmopolitan” is a drink for real fashionistas. The world learned this truth thanks to the light hand of Hollywood. How to make the famous cocktail at home? Its main ingredient is Cointreau liqueur. Although it can be quite successfully replaced by Triple Sec or any other orange liqueur. Before cooking, cool all the ingredients in advance and fill the cocktail glass to the top with crushed ice. Next, alternately pour 50 ml of vodka, 25 ml of liqueur, 50 ml of cranberry and 25 ml of lemon juice into the shaker, then shake the mixture vigorously. Pour ice out of the glass, fill it with cocktail and garnish with a slice of lime or lemon.
Tropical paradise
Delicate sweet Pina Colada is a constant favorite of alcoholic cocktails for girls. Prepare it at home and throw an impromptu bachelorette party. Pour a handful of ice cubes into a blender, pour in 50 ml of light rum, 100 ml of pineapple juice and 50 ml of Malibu coconut liqueur. If desired, you can add sliced banana here. Then the cocktail will be thicker and richer. Whisk all the ingredients until a homogeneous mixture is obtained and pour it into a pre-chilled cocktail glass. Before serving, decorate it with slices of orange, pineapple and strawberries or cream.
Azure dreams
Do you dream of the gentle rustle of the sea surf and the velvety sandy coast? The Blue Lagoon cocktail will help you transport yourself to a tropical fairy tale. Let’s start with lemonade. Cut the peel from 3 lemons, add 150 g of sugar, pour 800 ml of boiling water and let cool. Add the juice of squeezed lemons, leave it in the refrigerator for an hour, and then filter thoroughly. If you don’t have time, lemonade can be replaced with a mixture of 30 ml lemon juice and 120 ml high-quality soda. Fill a tall glass to the very brim with ice cubes. Next, pour 45 ml of vodka, 20 ml of Blue Curacao liqueur and 150 ml of ready-made lemonade into it.
Strawberry caresses
Another ladies’ cocktail hit is the famous Margarita. The combination of stunning tequila and refreshing citruses is truly sweet to a woman’s heart. In addition, preparing such a cocktail at home is quite simple. We rinse 30 g of fresh strawberries under cold water, remove the stems and place them in a blender bowl. Add to the berries 50 ml of tequila, 20 ml of Cointreau liqueur, 30 ml of lime or lemon juice and 2-3 tbsp. l. crushed ice. Whisk all ingredients until you obtain a homogeneous drink. Before serving, wet the edges of the glasses and dip them in powdered sugar, then fill it with the chilled cocktail.
Chocolate perfection
Chocolate is perhaps the most tempting delicacy that almost no woman can resist. Therefore, recipes for sweet alcoholic cocktails with its participation turn out to be especially tasty. Melt 50 g of dark chocolate in a water bath with a mass fraction of cocoa beans of at least 75%. Add 40 ml of dark rum to it and cool slightly. Place 2-3 thin rings of hot red pepper on the bottom of the glass, season them with 3-4 drops of lime juice and carefully break 2 quail eggs on top. Carefully, without stirring, pour them with the chocolate-rum mixture. It is recommended to serve this cocktail with a glass of freshly squeezed grapefruit juice.
The magic of fragrances
Among alcoholic drinks, many ladies unconditionally prefer the classic Martini or vermouth. Its sweet, tart taste and subtle herbaceous aroma are ideal for creating a variety of cocktail fantasies. If you add a little sparkling champagne to your martini, you will get a particularly harmonious union. So, combine 50 ml of Martini Bianco, 60 ml of orange and pomegranate juice, 70 ml of cranberry juice and 100 ml of champagne in a shaker. Fill the glasses one third full with ice cubes and pour in the finished cocktail. Before serving, decorate them with lemon slices.
Fruit Sunset
Another child of the hot tropics is the Daiquiri cocktail, named after the beach of the same name near Santiago. The classic recipe contains only white rum, lime and ice. However, today in many bars you can find banana, strawberry and coffee variations. This is how “Daiquiri” has earned its place of honor among the recipes for light alcoholic cocktails. We offer you another interesting improvisation. Place 3-5 tbsp in a blender bowl. l. crushed ice, add 60 ml of white rum, 15 ml of passion fruit syrup, 30 ml of lime juice and whisk all the ingredients, then pour the cocktail into chilled glasses.
