Beautiful! I’ve played around with this too… substituting good quality berry sorbet for the strawberries, and Lillet Servir Tres Frais for the creme de frais liqueur…

Oh my. This is a surprisingly complex and delightful cocktail. For this English ex-pat it brought back fond memories of English beer. All that and a great cocktail too.
