Cocktail Description

This golden elixir brings together the sophisticated clarity of vodka with the lush sweetness of French apricot liqueur for a cocktail that tastes like sunshine in a glass.



The Sunny Side Stir strikes a beautiful balance between bright fruit notes and refined complexity, with Ketel One providing a clean canvas for the rich, authentic apricot flavors of Giffard liqueur to shine. Timbal Extra Dry Vermouth adds subtle herbal dimensions while Angostura Orange Bitters provide a perfect aromatic counterpoint that ties everything together. Perfect for early evening gatherings or weekend brunches when you want something more elegant than a mimosa, this cocktail makes an impressive addition to any springtime celebration. Despite its sophisticated flavor profile, it's surprisingly straightforward to prepare—the stirring technique preserves clarity while properly diluting and chilling the drink. Pair this vibrant cocktail with light appetizers like goat cheese crostini, smoked salmon canapés, or even a simple cheese board featuring dried apricots and honey to complement its fruity character.
