材料

手順

Fill a tall glass with ice. Layer the Finlandia Vodka, lemon and apple juices, Pisang Ambon, and top up with lemonade. Stir slightly and garnish with a spiralled cucumber skin and a red cherry. The cucumber provides zest and looks attractive. This drink, created by Timo Haimi, took first prize in the 1991 Finlandia Vodka Long Drink Competition.

Fruity Refreshing

Avalonは、ウォッカとトロピカルなバナナハーブ風味のピサン・アンボンをアップルとレモンジュース、レモネードでトップした、フルーティーで爽やかなハイボールです。9.16%ABVで軽くアルコール感があり視覚的に印象的な飲み物で、ピサン・アンボンの独特な緑色がアバロンの特徴的な鮮やかな色合いを生み出しています。

History & Origins

Avalon takes its name from the mythical island of Arthurian legend, evoking a sense of an otherworldly paradise — an appropriate choice for a colorful, tropical-inspired drink. The cocktail's origin is disputed, though its use of Pisang Ambon, a Dutch banana liqueur, suggests European cocktail bar culture of the 1980s and 1990s. The combination of multiple juices, lemonade, and a brightly colored liqueur is characteristic of the elaborate long drinks of that era.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Tropical banana from the Pisang Ambon, fresh apple, lemon, and the light sweetness of lemonade. Palate: Sweet and fruity with banana and apple flavors leading, brightened by lemon juice's tartness; vodka provides a clean spirit base and lemonade adds a sparkling sweetness. Finish: Clean, refreshing, and moderately sweet.

Fill the glass with ice before building the drink, adding each ingredient in order and stirring gently before topping with lemonade.
