Create a Cocktail: Dubonnet Rouge, Cointreau & Kahlua

Dubonnet Rouge - Cointreau - Kahlua Especial 006 photo copyright Cheri Loughlin

I recently posted a photograph of three spirits (Dubonnet Rouge, Cointreau and Kahlua Especial) to The Intoxicologist Facebook page to encourage a little cocktail creativity. The directive: What cocktail would you create using these three ingredients plus base spirit and / or mix-ins such as juices, syrups, etc.? The following three recipes were shared in response.

Thanks to all those who shared recipe ideas! I look forward to doing this again soon.

Grape Season – via Daniel Delgado Teran

1 ounce Kahlua (Coffee Liqueur)

1 ounce Cointreau (Premium Orange Liqueur)

1/4 ounce Dubonnet Rouge

1/4 ounce Hazelnut Liqueur

1/2 ounce Merlot Juice

Sea Salt Rim

Combine liquids in cocktail shaker with ice. Shake to blend and chill. Strain into chilled sea salt rimmed cocktail glass.

Bloody & Bitter – via Justin Scappaticci

1/2 ounce Kahlua (Coffee Liqueur)

1-1/2 ounce Cointreau (Premium Orange Liqueur)

1/2 ounce Dubonnet Rouge

2 ounces Blood Orange Juice

2 dashes Orange Bitters

Club Soda

Justin didn’t give instructions on glass type, but due to the volume of this drink I would imagine the Bloody & Bitter should be built in highball glass over fresh ice.

Duke of York – via Steve Asmussen

Steve didn’t leave a name for his creative concoction, so I took the liberty of naming it. Steve, if you’re reading this and would like a name change for the cocktail, let me know.

2 ounces Kahlua (Coffee Liqueur)

1 ounce Dubonnet Rouge

1 ounce Cointreau (Premium Orange Liqueur)

4 ounce Peach Nectar

Combine liquids in cocktail shaker with ice. Shake to blend. Strain into highball glass over fresh ice. ~ This makes an 8 ounce drink, so it might be advisable to cut the measurements in half. This makes the drink more manageable and you can take your time sipping without worrying about the bottom half of the drink becoming watery from ice melt.

What cocktail would you create using the spirits above?

Making Springtime Sparkle

Springtime calls for lilting cocktails with fruited flavors of the season that tickle at the nose and linger on the taste buds. The Springtime Martini pegs the name right on, but comes across with wisps of perfume in the finish. While fresh juice usually wins out for better cocktails, this one would perhaps taste better with Peach Liqueur in place of the peach nectar.  

Springtime Martini - NUVO Sparkling Liqueur cocktail - photo copyright Cheri LoughlinSpringtime Martini

2 ounces Vodka

1/2 ounce Peach Nectar

1/4 ounce Fresh Lime Juice

1 ounce NUVO Sparkling Liqueur

Place vodka and juices in cocktail shaker with ice. Shake to blend and chill. Strain into chilled martini glass. Top with chilled NUVO Sparkling Liqueur.

NUVO Sparkling Liqueur is vodka infused with French sparkling wine, raspberry, peach and strawberry fruits. The wine is predominantly chardonnay with a touch of pinot noir. NUVO is best served chilled. Since it is sparkling liqueur, it will go flat if not consumed within 18 to 24 hours. Best if consumed within shorter time frame.
