With low ABV cocktails being one of the biggest trends in the world of booze, I thought this would be a great moment for me to introduce a flavor-packed, easy-to-make and delicious cocktail based on our Flavor Atlas trends.
Bartenders have started using Spanish sherry (again) in the past three to five years, realizing the powerful flavor and intrigue it can bring to a cocktail. Jerez (sherry) made in Spain comes from Andalusia. It has a delicious nutty aftertaste that very few ingredients can provide, yet it still offers a dryish mouth feel and light body.
Along with the Jerez Oloroso, we use the Italian amaro Cynar for a bittersweet flavor note, delightfully bright and sweet tangerine juice as our main citrus, lemon juice, a bit of simple syrup and lots of ice. All of those ingredients combined make this shaken cocktail a summer beauty, and we top it with grapefruit mineral water for a bubbly and refreshing feel.
The Andalusian Sunset is an homage to the colors of Andalusia, the flavors of its sherry and the beauty of the Mediterranean.
