조리법

There are many good cherry liqueurs you can use, but I prefere Heering. Add one share of the liqueur. Then you add one share of Soda. For a sour sling use Tonic (most people prefer the drink without Tonic). Afterwards you fill the glass with Orange Juice and ice cubes.

Dark Herbal

Darkwood Sling은 Cherry Heering 리큐어를 베이스로 소다수와 오렌지 주스를 올린 단순하고 낮은 ABV의 체리 칵테일입니다. 체리 리큐어가 깊고 어두운 붉은색과 달콤하고 허브향 가득한 베이스를 제공하며, 시트러스와 탄산이 이를 가볍게 해줍니다. 스피릿-시트러스-소다 구성의 슬링 계열에 속합니다.

History & Origins

The sling is one of the oldest cocktail families, documented in early 19th-century American bartending guides. The Darkwood Sling is a modern variation that swaps the traditional base spirit for Cherry Heering, a Danish cherry liqueur dating to 1818. Its exact origin is disputed, though the drink draws on well-established sling conventions.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: ripe black cherry, orange blossom, and faint herbal spice from the Heering. Palate: sweet cherry up front, brightened by fresh orange juice and a slightly tannic herbal note. Finish: clean and refreshing with lingering citrus and a gentle effervescence.

Pro Tip

Use freshly squeezed orange juice and well-chilled soda water for the brightest flavor, and serve over large ice cubes to slow dilution.
