Matt

Very tasty tequila cocktail. Lightly tart berry notes lead the taste, with nice tequila flavors following quickly, finishing with a moderate drying astringence in the mouth. Very nice - an excellent cocktail. I was disappointed that my cocktails coloration was only light pink, and not more reddish - maybe another type of cranberry juice is needed.

Much bettter than a vodka based Cosmo (IMO). Nice light pink color. Lime juice is prominent and maybe too much (perhaps 7.5 - 10 ml instead), with nice smooth backbone of cognac and Cointreau - this doesn't present as boozy at all. Barely any impact from the falernum (I used Taylor's Velvet) - maybe boost to 15 ml to get some seasonal spice.

It's a daiquiri, and is delicious. The cranberry juice adds a bit of color, but not much - so while it tastes great (and the falernum adds some nice seasonal spice notes), I think it needs something to give a bit more red tint.

A very nice, light, slightly sweet spritz - starts with distinct flavors of elderflower liqueur (but not overly strong or sweet), then a hint of cranberry in transition to modest botanicals of the gin. A very refreshing spritz that doesn't present as too sweet or too strong. Very enjoyable - this should be a revisited often as a light and delicious refresher! I note I used sweetened cranberry juice, and didn't find it too sweet at all.
