Chard-Tini
The Chard-tini cocktail is poured over ice, combining crisp Chardonnay with the delicate assertiveness of vodka and the sweetness of peach liqueur. This modern twist on the classic spritzer is light, aromatic, and effervescent, with a splash of soda water to enhance every flavour and provide a bright, breezy texture.
Ingredients
Serves1- Check off ingredients
- 15mL Chardonnay
- 10mL vodka
- 5mL peach-flavoured liqueur
- 30mL soda water (to top)
- Ice cubes
- Peach slice or mint (optional garnish)
Method
- Step 1
Fill a cocktail shaker halfway with ice and add Chardonnay, vodka, and peach-flavoured liqueur. This chills the mixture a little while blending the alcohol components.
- Step 2
To guarantee that the wine and spirits are well combined and slightly aerated without being overly diluted, give the combination a quick shake (8–10 seconds).
- Step 3
Strain into a highball glass with new ice or chilled wine. To keep the fizz and clarity, lightly pour soda water on top.
- Step 4
Add a piece of peach or a sprig of mint as a garnish. To savour the harmony of fruit, fizz, and a hint of warmth from the spirits, serve right away.
Tips & Suggestions
Preparation Tip 1
To keep the cocktail crisp and fresh, choose a dry, chilled Chardonnay; richer wines may overshadow the peach liqueur and disrupt the drink's clear, balanced flavour profile.
Preparation Tip 2
Top with well-chilled soda water just before serving to maintain the bubbles and heighten the flavours; dull soda will flatten the spritzer's vivid texture.
