French Flamingo Instructions

Looking for a vibrant and refreshing cocktail to enjoy this summer? Look no further than the French Flamingo! This delightful drink combines the tanginess of grapefruit with the sweetness of raspberry to create a balanced and zesty flavor that will have you reaching for another sip.

To make a French Flamingo, you will need a few ingredients such as grapefruit juice, raspberry liqueur, and a splash of grenadine. You can also add a garnish of fresh raspberries or a grapefruit slice to add a touch of elegance to your drink.

To prepare the French Flamingo, start by filling a cocktail shaker with ice. Add 2 ounces of grapefruit juice, 1 ounce of raspberry liqueur, and a splash of grenadine. Shake vigorously until all the ingredients are well mixed and chilled.

Next, strain the mixture into a chilled cocktail glass. If you want to add a dramatic flair, you can create a flaming effect by carefully lighting a sugar cube soaked in high-proof rum and dropping it into the glass. This will create a brief burst of flame that adds a wow factor to your drink.

Finally, garnish your French Flamingo with fresh raspberries or a grapefruit slice. This will not only enhance the visual appeal of the drink but also add a subtle hint of flavor to each sip.

The French Flamingo is a perfect choice for a summer gathering or a relaxing evening by the pool. Its vibrant colors and refreshing taste will transport you to a tropical getaway with every sip. So why not mix up a French Flamingo and enjoy the flavors of summer today?
