Amsterdam: A Sauvignon Blanc, Chambord, & Vodka Cocktail

Amsterdam is my favorite place in the world. The canals, the houseboats, the architecture, the history, the people riding bicycles, the way it feels like a global village. And of course, Tess Posthumus and Door 74 (see The Making of a Mixologist, the BLOG entry for March 2, 2016). In keeping with my love affair with all things Amsterdam, I've created a cocktail in its honor...

AMSTERDAM

1½ parts Cîroc Redberry Vodka


½ part Sauvignon Blanc wine


½ part Chambord


½ part Triple Sec


¼ part fresh-squeezed Lime juice


liberal dash of Hella Bitters citrus bitters. Shake everything over ice, then pour into a chilled 
cocktail glass. Garnish with a lime wedge.

"Amsterdam", the cocktail.
