Sweet Tart Cocktail Recipe
This sweet tart cocktail recipe with Chambord and Gin will remind you of the classic candy treat! It’s a delicious and refreshing drink with only 3 ingredients. Mix up this pretty drink for cocktail parties or girls night in.

Sweet Tart Drink with Alcohol
I think I’ve found my new favorite drink! I created this Chambord and gin cocktail, and it was the perfect blend of sweetness and tartness.
As I tasted the flavors on my tongue I knew I would have to name it the Sweet Tart as it reminded me of those little candies.
A single sip sort of hits you in waves, much like the candies do. First you get a sour note from the lime before getting a hint of sweetness from the raspberry liqueur. The result is a drink that’s really refreshing and whimsical, and leaves you wanting more. I may have to deem this the cocktail of the season!
This drink is a bright orange color so it would make a pretty signature party drink if you host a ladies luncheon or for Easter entertaining. So why not set up a tray with the ingredients and tools you need to shake up this tasty beverage.

Gin cocktail for entertaining
I think I’ve mentioned here many times that I don’t like cocktails that are overly sweet. This one hits the mark, making it perfect to pair with some happy hour appetizers or to serve before dinner.
- Serve it with some salty snacks like blue cheese & balsamic kettle chips.
- Mix some up along with ham & Parmesan canapes.
- Sip and sample cheese & charcuterie.
