Red Sherry Summer Fizz

This refreshing Collins-style cocktail takes inspiration from the Spanish Tinto de Verano drink, adding a scarlet twist with Chivas Extra 13 Sherry Cask and redcurrant syrup. The rich, Mediterranean flavor of Chivas Extra 13 Sherry Cask, finished in Oloroso sherry casks, combined with the sweetness of redcurrant syrup and the tartness of lemon, offers a delightful summer cocktail experience. The addition of dry Oloroso sherry and a dash of soda water completes this sweet yet wonderfully refreshing beverage.
