THE MILLIONAIRE COCKTAIL
Join the Siduri wine club at https://www.siduri.com/wine-club!
Today we’re making the Millionaire Cocktail 2 ways! Actually, there are numerous cocktails that go by the name Millionaire, but these two are the most popular. Both are sours sweetened with liqueurs and grenadine, but that’s where the similarities end. We’ll talk about some history and touch on the potential complications you might encounter when mixing drinks with egg whites. Hope you enjoy these recipes! Cheers!
