Refreshing French Martini Cocktail

If you’re looking for a sweet, fruity, and delicious cocktail for spring – we’re sharing our new favorite!

We’re using chambord, pineapple juice, and vodka to bring a fruity cocktail inspired by our favorite French liqueur – Chambord!

Itโ€™s a sweeter martini, but not in dessert-like way – there are notes of raspberry, pineapple, and citrus – it tastes like a cotton candy martini, without being overly syrupy sweet.

Itโ€™s definitely a fruity cocktail but the flavor of this drink is really fascinating to me, it kind of tastes like cotton candy!
