We've kicked off our Summer Cocktails series where we profile fun new summer drinks that hotels are making. Got one we should know about? Send us the recipe with a photo of the drink. Otherwise, enjoy and @reply us when you're wasted!
So you're kicking back in the lobby bar at the Desert Springs JW Marriott Resort in Palm Desert but you get the feeling there's something missing. It might be a loved one to give you a kiss … or failing that, get a cocktail kiss. They've got the Raspberry Kiss cocktail on offer this summer and it sounds refreshing enough to make you forget all your city woes.
With a mix of Bacardi Limon and the delicious raspberry tang of Chambord, plus plenty of mint to keep the refreshment value up, it gets our thumbs up, and has the bonus of being very reasonably priced – just $11, so you'll have enough change to down a couple (or more, if you're more desperate for refreshment). But just to get things in the right order we recommend hitting the spa before the bar, because tipsy tub therapy can be a bit dangerous.
Raspberry Kiss
In a Shaker, muddle 15 fresh Mint Leaves. Add 2 Oz. Bacardi Limon, 1 Oz. Freshly Squeezed Lemon Juice and ¾ Oz. of Simple Syrup.
In a tall chilled glass add 1 Oz. of Chambord then fill to the top with ice. Shake all contents in shaker and slowly pour over ice. Stir slightly and garnish with Fresh Mint Sprig and Lemon Circle.
It may also be garnished with Frozen Raspberries or Thinly Sliced Cucumbers for a more refreshing taste.
