KINNIE
Soft Drink & Mixer
THE BITTER SWEET FLAVOUR OF THE MEDITERRANEAN
Made from a secret blend of bitter Mediterranean oranges, herbs and spices since 1951
Ice-cold Kinnie is delicious straight with a twist of orange but its bitter sweet taste lends itself well to mixing and enhances most alcoholic drinks. Kinnie as a mixer goes well with practically every spirit, including vodka, rum and whiskey.
Kinnie & Vodka is a particularly popular combination.
Simply pour a measure of vodka over ice in a highball glass. Stir, adding Kinnie to taste and dress with a slice of orange.
Kinnie Kiss
For those wanting those wanting something more sophisticated, try the ever-popular “Kinnie Kiss” by blending Kinnie with some sparkling white wine like Prosecco. Take a long drink glass or goblet, put in some ice, fill halfway with Prosecco and top up the glass with Kinnie. Additionally you can add some soda or sparkling water for that extra fizz.
Kinnie with Campari
For something truly Mediterranean, try Kinnie with Campari. Pour one measure of Campari and half measure of orange juice into an ice tumbler half full of Kinnie. Stir and garnish with a slice of lemon or orange.
The list of cocktail possibilities is endless, and since Kinnie is such a versatile mixer, that you can easily create your own “Kinnie cocktail” or long drink for your enjoyment at any time of the day or night.
KINNIE - GREAT WITH FOOD
