Review:
Made to resemble the colours of the Ukrainian flag which is said to represent a blue sky over a yellow field of wheat, a reflection of Ukraine being considered Europe's breadbasket. The sunflower is the Ukrainian national flower so the flag also represents a blue sky over sunflowers.
History:
Adapted from a recipe created in March 2022 in support of the people of Ukraine by Karol Terejlis, a bartender at Ognisko Restaurant at the Polish Club in South Kensington, London. Funds from sales of the cocktail are donated to Ukraine Crisis Fundraiser. Karol's recipe calls for Kavka Polish vodka.
