Russian Kiss Cocktail
Description
This cocktail starts by muddling cocktail cherries to release their flavor, then shaking them with grenadine, vodka, and ice to blend and chill the mixture. The grenadine adds sweetness and a deep red color, complementing the cherries. After straining into a glass, it is topped with club soda or lemon-lime soda, adding effervescence and a hint of citrus when lemon-lime is used. Additional cherries may be used as garnishes.
The drink balances sweetness from grenadine and cherries with the vodka’s clean spirit and the soda’s bubbles, making it refreshing and fruity. It is suited to those who enjoy cherry-flavored cocktails with a fizzy texture.
Ingredients
- 3 cocktail cherries

Instructions
- Muddle the cherries and add them to the shaker with the grenadine, vodka and ice.
