0.5 oz
The second most common juice used in cocktails. This citrus juice is about 6% acid; 4% from citric and 2% from malic, with small amounts of succinic acid (this is what gives it a little bloody taste). Lime juice should be used the day it is squeezed, some like it freshly squeezed and others like it a few hours old.
0.5 oz
A sweet dark red blackcurrant liqueur. Consumed as a digestif or in cocktails like the Kir; 15% ABV.
1.5 oz

4 oz
A carbonated soft drink flavoured with ginger. A 'dry' variety is sold with the addition of mint.
Squeeze and the drop lime wedge into a Collins or highball glass. Fill glass with cracked ice. Build the drink by adding the remaining ingredients; stir. Garnish with a swizzle stick. #build #ontherocks
