What Ingredients do you need to make a Berry White?
Vodka
We compared 12 different brands of Vodka and determined that Smirnoff was the overall best option. Given the current climate with Russia, that may seem like a questionable choice, but Smirnoff isn’t made in Russia, it’s made all over the world.
It actually has a history of Russian persecution and the creators were forced to flee Russia.
Blue Curaçao
Blue Curaçao is a liqueur flavoured with the dried peel of the Laraha citrus fruit, which is then artificially coloured blue for effect.
It’s a great ingredient to use in cocktails because it pretty much has everything you could ever want as a cocktail mixer:
- It has an enticing colour.
- It has a bitter orange taste that blends well with most flavours.
- It has a great amount of alcohol in it.
