Looking for an easy cocktail recipe for your next Zoom Happy Hour? Try the corona cure. While it sadly won’t cure the virus, it will help you forget about it for a few minutes!
Basically, this is my take on an old fashioned and is a super easy cocktail recipe. While I like the bourbon and cherry combo, I prefer more cherry and adding a little soda to the mix.
First:
*Add cherry juice to the glass. If using Morelli cherries, I use a full shot, but you can adjust according to your taste. Maraschino are a little sweeter so you may want to use a little less.
*Add 1 shot of bourbon or vodka
*Top with club soda
*Garnish with cherries
The best part is the garnish and these are the best cherries! I have linked the Luxardo brand cherries, these are what you find in restaurants and are available on Amazon. If you can’t find them, the Morelli cherries in a large jar from Trader Joes work well too and are less sweet! Depending on the cherries you use, taste the juice before deciding how much you want in your Corona Cure. (It’s all about improvising these days, right?)
Hope you enjoy this Corona Cure. Here’s to reaching out to loved ones via video, staying home and safe and enjoying a well deserved cocktail.
