The Classic Kamikaze Drink Recipe and Its Fascinating Origins

If you're a fan of cocktails, then you've likely heard about or tasted the famous Kamikaze drink. This classic cocktail is known for its refreshing citrus flavor that perfectly balances sweet and sour notes.

A Brief History of the Kamikaze Drink
