Cocktail Hour: Berry Dream

by Stephanie Nolasco
07.27.2011


Nothing satisfies one’s sweet tooth faster than ice cream on a sizzling hot summer afternoon, but truthfully, we need something that packs more punch and our childhood love doesn’t always cut it. Fortunately, there’s a new tantalizing number available in bars right now and it’s a treat that’s just for adults. The Berry Dream, created by world renowned mixologist Jonathan Pogash, is a grown up take on the beloved classic, one that will easily have you screaming from joy. The Berry Dream features vodka infused with juicy blueberries and acai berries, a fruit from Latin America that tastes like luscious chocolate dipped in red wine. The icy vodka is blended with raspberry sorbet and velvety coconut cream to create a thickness that resembles a milkshake. Along with toasted coconut flakes, The Berry Dream is exactly that, a fantasy come to life just for your tastebuds. Just be warned: you may make enough to serve an entire party, but would you really want to share after one taste?
