IBA NewEra

El Russian Spring Punch es un moderno cóctel clásico nacido en los bares de cócteles británicos. Vodka, zumo de limón, licor de cassis y champán se combinan para crear un sabor fresco y burbujeante como la primavera.

History & Origins

The Russian Spring Punch was created by British bartender Dick Bradsell in the 1980s, widely regarded as one of the most influential cocktail creators of the modern era. Bradsell developed the drink as a lighter, sparkling alternative to the Kir Royale, incorporating vodka and lemon for greater complexity. It was recognized by the IBA in its New Era Drinks category, cementing its status as a contemporary classic.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Fresh blackcurrant from the crème de cassis and lemon zest, with a delicate effervescence from the sparkling wine. Palate: Sweet and tart in balance, with the blackcurrant's jammy richness complemented by bright lemon acidity and vodka's clean warmth; the sparkling wine adds lightness and lift. Finish: Dry and refreshing, with a lingering berry note and gentle effervescence.
