Ingredients

Liquids

  • 1 ounce Strawberry rum
  • 1 ounce White rum
  • 1.5 ounces Grenadine
  • 1¼ cup Lemon-lime soda

Garnish

  • Strawberries or a cherry


Instructions

  1. Fill the shaker with ice: Add enough ice to a cocktail shaker to chill the mixture effectively.
  2. Add ingredients: Pour in 1 ounce of strawberry rum, 1 ounce of white rum, and 1.5 ounces of grenadine into the shaker.
  3. Shake lightly: Gently shake the mixture to combine the flavors without diluting too much.
  4. Strain: Strain the mixture into a serving glass, leaving the ice behind in the shaker.
  5. Add soda and garnish: Top off the cocktail with 1¼ cup of lemon-lime soda, then garnish with fresh strawberries or a cherry.
  6. Serve: Present your Cupid’s Cocktail immediately and enjoy its refreshing taste!

Notes

  • Use fresh fruit for garnish to enhance the presentation and flavor.
  • Adjust the grenadine quantity if you prefer a sweeter or less sweet drink.
  • Use ice cubes or crushed ice depending on your preference for chill and dilution.
  • For a non-alcoholic version, replace the rums with additional lemon-lime soda or a non-alcoholic rum substitute.
