COSTA DEL SOL
2 measures white rum
1 measure sweet red vermouth
1 measure sugar syrup
½ measure lemon juice
3 measures soda water
Happy first day of Spring! It got
up to an unprecedented 83 degrees in Cleveland today and it felt more like summer.
Shorts and sandals were everywhere, and the sun shinned bright for a change.
The sunny weather was a perfect complement
to today’s cocktail – the COSTA DEL SOL. The English translation of Costa Del
Sol is “coast of the sun” or “sunny coast.” It is the name of a region in southern
Spain known as the Spanish Mediterranean. There is also a Costa Del Sol Resort
in Mexico, and a line of tanning products named Costa Del Sol. And that was
only the first two page results of a Google search. Popular name.

Sounds good. I've never heard of sweet red vermouth. Never too old to learn :)
