I made strawberry kvass (tepache de fresa) and wanted to leverage it. This came out a little too sweet for my preference but nice, round, fruity and I do love a pink cocktail.
2 oz tequila (Tequila Ocho Plata)
1 oz St Germain
1 scant oz lemon juice (juice of one not very juicy lemon)
Shaken together, then mixed with 3 oz of the kvass.
If you have never made a tepache/fruit kvass, just do it. Easy beginner level ferment project and so delicious you will want to do it again. Literally just fruit & sugar in water, stir twice a day with a clean spoon. (ETA: when it gets fizzy it’s done, bottle & refrigerate)
In Japan highballs are a shot of whisky with soda water and a lemon slice.
That is one of my favorite drinks, ranch water or scotch & soda with lemon. Squeeze of sour citrus and fizzy watered down tasty strong liquor. It’s almost like LaCroix but good. In general I can taste the strong stuff better if it’s stretched out like that. Straight it is too heavy and I don’t like it as much.
