Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 oz Vodka
- 1 oz Midori (melon liqueur)
- 1 oz Sour mix
- 3 oz Lemon-lime soda
- 0.5 oz Grenadine
- 1 cup Ice cubes
- 1 piece Lime wheel (for garnish)
- 2 tbsp Sugar (optional for rim)
Instructions
If you prefer a sugar-rimmed glass, start by running a lime wedge around the rim of a highball or cocktail glass. Dip the rim into sugar to coat, then set the glass aside.
In a cocktail shaker, combine vodka, Midori, sour mix, and grenadine with a handful of ice cubes.
Shake well for about 10-15 seconds, until the mixture is thoroughly chilled.
Fill the prepared glass with ice cubes, leaving some room at the top for soda.
Strain the shaken mixture into the glass over the ice.
Top off the cocktail with lemon-lime soda, pouring gently to preserve the fizz.
Give the drink a light stir to incorporate the soda.
Garnish with a lime wheel on the edge of the glass and serve immediately. Enjoy!
