Rose
Rose is an elegant and slightly fruity classic cocktail made with kirsch, dry vermouth and raspberry syrup. Thanks to its pink color and balanced aroma, it is a nostalgic drink especially preferred as an aperitif.
The Rose cocktail is one of the classic drinks that emerged from the elegant bar culture in Europe in the early 20th century. It became particularly popular in cocktail bars in Paris and London. The recipe spread rapidly thanks to its first appearance in Harry MacElhone's cocktail books published in the 1920s.
This cocktail gets its name from its pink color. The raspberry syrup gives the drink both a slight sweetness and its characteristic color. Kirsch, with its cherry flavors, gives the drink a fruity depth. The dry vermouth balances all these flavors and gives the cocktail a more elegant structure.
