Coral Blossom Cocktail

This was my cocktail experiment for the night. I'm very happy with it. I bought some Maraska Cherry Wine to try in place of Maraschino liqueur. I can't say that it's the same (it's really not even close), but now I have this bottle of very sweet earthy Cherry Wine to use.

I was trying to think of something to consume a little of it and came up with this very simple sweet but not too cloying drink. I like it. I couldn't find something just like this so I decided to name it after the pretty coral blush color. I'll probably forget about this tomorrow, but if anyone wants to try it the recipe is as follows:

2 oz Vodka (I just used Titos)
1/2 oz St. Germain
1/4 oz Maraska Cherry Wine

Pour ingredients into an ice filled shaker, shake, and strain.

  1. Hmmm... Coral Blossom Cocktail... Orange Blossom Special... I think I am hearing a new cover song with slightly changed lyrics headed down the track.
