Description:
With a vibrant red hue, this fruit-forward, low-proof cocktail is a refreshing option for summertime sipping. Haskap liquer from Okanagan Spirits offers hints berries and blackcurrant, while cranberry bitters and fresh lemon juice lend a tartness that helps to balance out the sweet flavours. Served in a tall glass adorned with coastal decor, the cocktail’s naughty nautical name is sure to make you giggle.
