Aphrodites Pink Lady cocktail drink. 22 August 2019
Myself and my son, John, spent a wonderful afternoon sipping, a perfect cocktail in the early autumn golden white sunlight. It was an experimental work in progress, and quite inspired, writing the recipe down before i forget it, lol,
Tin of mixed pink and grey Grapefruit segment,s ... ( which i’d opened for breakfast the other day... and needed “useing up” ) and a handful of fresh Strawberries, ( also, that desperately needed “useing up”, ) ..... ( mixed together in a glass bowl and refridgerated for two day,s ) .... ((hense why I needed to “use it up” lol, smile,s))..... lots of Ice... Water... quite a bit of Cherry Gin ( ....according to requitement ..... .....) giggle,s ...... whizzed up in my magic smoothie maker ...... (very pink, and a little frothy, mmm,) ... then added fresh Mint leaves and lastly which just made the flavour perfectly delicious ..... dried Cherries (fresh or cocktail cherries would have been better, but i had to use what i got, ).... on a stick, to stir, and add a few to the glass ....
very homemade, and on a budget, our verdict, was sweet on first sip, then, slightly bitter, from the Grapefruit, but which was kind of “balanced out” with the Cherries, Strawberries, and Gin.... made about 10 flute glasses full . loverly....... hehe..... smiles, ( with a slightly flushed pink looking grin) ♥
