Balalika

Bright, tart and citrus-forward: sharp lime juice is balanced by sweet orange liqueur while vodka provides a clean, neutral backbone. It pours pale and translucent into a chilled cocktail glass with a curled lime peel for an aromatic finish. Worth trying if you like brisk, simple sours that showcase fresh citrus and quality liqueur.
