A riviera is synonymous with the seaside, and true to the cocktail we were inspired by the beautiful Greek seaside and created a delicious and fruity combination of our Baton Brandy and Rakomelo, added with apricot, honey and lemon for the perfect sipper transporting us to the sandy sun-drenched beaches of Greece!
A very well-balanced cocktail that is super easy to make. Topping it off with a little Rose or sparkling for a lighter take.
Enjoy it!
