Sip into the sweet and tangy bliss of a vibrant Midori Sour! A mixture of Midori melon liqueur, lemon or lime juice with a splash of soda. Perfect drink that offers sweet and tangy flavor.
First fill a cocktail shaker with ice, and add the Midori and vodka.
Next add the lime juice and lemon juice. Remember, fresh juice is always worth the effort!
If you want a darker green hue, you can add a tiny bit of blue curaçao. It tastes like oranges, so it won’t change the flavor, just the color.
Shake vigorously, then strain into a rocks glass filled with ice.
Top it up with a splash of soda. Garnish with a citrus slice. You can also add a cocktail cherry if you like.
Notes
For best results, use fresh citrus juice. You can substitute sour mix, but you may want to use ¾ ounces (instead of 1 ounce) as it is very sweet.Blue curaçao is totally optional. Some bartenders add it to give it a deeper green color.
