Sweet Refreshing

Zima Blasterは、1990年代に人気を博したクリアなシトラス風味のモルト飲料であるZimaとシャンボードラズベリーリキュールを組み合わせたシンプルなカクテルで、ハリケーングラスに氷の上に提供される。シャンボードの豊かな濃いラズベリーとブラックカラントの甘さが、軽くさわやかなZimaをより果実感のある複雑なドリンクに変え、鮮やかなカラーグラデーションを作り出す。1990年代を懐かしむカクテルだ。

History & Origins

The Zima Blaster emerged in the early-to-mid 1990s alongside Zima's commercial launch by Coors Brewing Company in 1993. Zima was marketed as an 'alternative to beer,' appealing to consumers who found beer too bitter — adding Chambord was a common bar customization that increased sweetness and complexity. The drink's origin is disputed and likely evolved simultaneously across multiple American bars as bartenders experimented with the new product.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Light citrus and malt from the Zima with Chambord's intense raspberry and blackcurrant sweetness. Palate: Sweet and fruity, with Chambord's dark berry richness complementing Zima's light, citrusy malt character; the combination is more interesting than either component alone. Finish: Sweet and berry-forward with lingering raspberry and a light malt note from the Zima.

Pro Tip

Pour the Chambord over ice before adding the Zima to create an attractive color gradient that slowly integrates as the drink is consumed.
