Review:

Tastes distinctly like a Fruit Pastille sweet.

History:

Created in late October 2005 by Darren Thrush at the Fourth Floor Cafe and Bar at Harvey Nichols in Leeds, England. To quote Darren, "The martini glass must have a sugared rim to enhance the presentation and the sweet concept. What's amazing about this concept is that the colour represents what is probably everybody's favourite flavour fruit pastille - the blackcurrant one."
