CARIBBEAN CLARIDGE

Cocktails with high alcoholic strength are not always liked or designed for all audiences, often we need to make a version or add a complement to make them fit in more palate profiles.

In this case, by making an apricot spherical to be eaten before the first sip of the cocktail, we generate a film on the palate so that the first impact of the Claridge is less and the perception in the mouth is much more pleasant.
