What is MIDORI Melon Liqueur?
MIDORI Melon Liqueur brings a vibrant, sweet melon flavor to cocktails, with its distinctive bright green color making it a standout in any bar collection. Interestingly, despite its strong association with Japanese culture, MIDORI was actually first introduced to the world at the legendary Studio 54 nightclub in New York City in 1978, marking its debut with a star-studded party that helped cement its place in cocktail history.
Why do we love MIDORI Melon Liqueur?
MIDORI Melon Liqueur stands out for its vibrant green color and intensely sweet, honeydew melon flavor that's derived from two Japanese melon varieties: yubari and musk melons. Unlike rum, which is distilled from sugarcane byproducts, MIDORI is a fruit liqueur that offers a lower alcohol content (20% ABV) and a distinctively fruity profile, making it ideal for adding a bright, tropical twist to cocktails or enjoying on its own over ice.
How do you drink MIDORI Melon Liqueur?
MIDORI Melon Liqueur shines brightest in refreshing cocktails, particularly those with citrus or tropical flavors, making it perfect for sipping poolside or at outdoor gatherings during warm spring and summer days. Its sweet, fruity profile also lends itself well to pairing with light appetizers or desserts, especially those featuring fresh fruit or subtle cheeses.

Nose: Fresh honeydew melon dominates, with subtle hints of cantaloupe and green apple. A light, sweet aroma reminiscent of melon hard candy lingers in the background.
Palate: Intensely sweet with a syrupy texture. Ripe honeydew melon flavor takes center stage, supported by notes of kiwi and green grape. A slight citrus tang emerges, balancing the sweetness somewhat.
Finish: Medium-length and candy-sweet. The melon flavor persists, gradually fading to leave a subtle green apple aftertaste. A gentle warmth from the alcohol becomes noticeable at the very end.
MIDORI Melon Liqueur is crafted using a unique process that begins with premium muskmelons and Yubari melons from Japan. These melons are harvested at peak ripeness, juiced, and then combined with a neutral grain spirit and other natural flavors before undergoing a proprietary infusion and filtration process to achieve its signature bright green color and luscious melon flavor.
