My very own cocktail

Everybody should do something creative every now and then.

Today I’m proud to announce that I created my very first cocktail!

Its called "Frozen Melissa" (1.0) – (Fanfares!!!)

You might scratch your head about the name, but let me explain:
One of the main ingredients of the cocktail is lemon balm syrup, which is usually used to prepare a soft drink. The Latin name for "lemon balm" is "Melissa officinalis" - hence the Name ;-).

So, what do we need for a cocktail for one person:

4cl Vodka
2cl Brown Tequila
3cl lemon balm syrup
Champagne
Crushed Ice

I can't promise that Lemon Balm Syrup is available everywhere but at least in Austria and Germany it is.


How to prepare the Cocktail:

Put the crushed ice into a glas, add vodka, tequila and the lemon balm syrup and fill the rest of the glas with champagne.

Enjoy!

This might not be the final recipe, so for right now lets call it the Frozen Melissa 1.0, I'll let you all know if I come up with a better mixture.
