The Mirage cocktail is an original and refreshing drink that captivates not only with its taste but also with its appearance. The recipe can be adapted to suit your preferences.
Ingredients:
- White rum – 50 ml
- Orange juice – 100 ml
- Grenadine (pomegranate syrup) – 10 ml
- Ice – a few cubes
- Orange slice or cherry – for garnish
Instructions:
- Fill the glass with ice. Use a highball or cocktail glass.
- Pour the rum. Add the white rum into the glass over the ice.
- Add orange juice. Gently pour in the juice so the ingredients mix smoothly.
- Add grenadine. Slowly pour the syrup along the side of the glass or over a spoon. The grenadine will settle at the bottom, creating a sunset effect.
- Garnish the cocktail. Add an orange slice or a cocktail cherry to the rim of the glass.
Variations:
- For a non-alcoholic version, replace the rum with sparkling water or lemonade.
- You can add a splash of lemon juice for a brighter flavor.
Enjoy!
