THE BLONDE

Acidity is key in many cocktails in order to find a balance between ingredients and their final perceptions.

What happens when you have in mind a fresh, acidic cocktail, with a markedly aperitif character, but you don’t want to cloud the final result …

The citric solution, i.e. a concentrated solution of citric acid and water, allows us to add acidity to a mixture, altering the result and final balance, but hardly altering the result and the clarity of the mixture.
