Notes

The Story Behind the Tingle The Fruit Tingle cocktail gets its name from the popular Australian candies. It's a modern classic that rose to fame in the country's bar and nightclub scene, particularly in the 1990s. The drink's success is tied to its vibrant colors and sweet, easy-to-drink flavor profile, which perfectly mimics the taste of the fizzy, fruity sweets it's named after.
Tips for a Perfect Cocktail
  • The Color Change is Key: The magic of this drink is in the color change. For the best effect, add the raspberry cordial last, pouring it slowly over the back of a spoon. This creates a beautiful layered look before the colors naturally blend.
  • Customize Your Sweetness: If you prefer a less sweet drink, you can use soda water instead of lemonade and add a squeeze of fresh lime juice to balance the flavors.
  • Make It a Frozen Slushie: For a fun summer treat, blend all the ingredients (minus the cordial, which you can drizzle on top) with ice to create a vibrant, slushie-style cocktail.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
  • Is the Fruit Tingle very strong? The Fruit Tingle is a relatively mild cocktail. The high amount of lemonade and cordial makes it a refreshing, sessionable drink that's easy to sip.
  • What does it taste like? It has a sweet, fruity flavor with prominent notes of raspberry and orange. The lemonade gives it a fizzy, refreshing finish, just like a sugary sweet.
