Cherry Lane cocktail
The Cherry Lane is a sweet cocktail featuring cherry vodka, lemon juice, Benedictine herbal liqueur and simple syrup.
The Cherry Lane cocktail combines sweet and sour flavours with the herbal taste of the benedictine. Made with 27 different herbs, spices, and peels, Benedictine liqueur adds to the cocktail a subtle taste of licorice, with a flavor of smoothness brought by sweet spices.
