Pythagoras

Metaxa is a Greek spirit which is made from the combination of Samos Muscat wines, aged wine distillates and Mediterranean botanicals. Although it is commonly considered to be a brandy, Metaxa is technically not classified as brandy due to the presence of the Muscat wines and the Mediterranean botanicals. Metaxa 7 Stars has an amber colour since it is aged in oak barrels for at least 7 years and has fruity notes with plums and peaches as the forward notes. That’s why I would like to make a fruity cocktail supporting the peach notes with creme de peche and tropical fruits, while trying to boost the toffee notes with vanilla rooibos syrup.⁣

Ingredients

  • 50 ml Metaxa 7
  • 15 ml Creme de peche
  • 45 ml Pineapple Juice
  • 25 ml Passionfruit Puree
  • 30 ml Lemon Juice
  • 15 ml Vanilla Rooibos Syrup

Instructions

  • Add all ingredients into your shaker and shake well with ice. Double strain into your ice-filled glass. Garnish with a pineapple wedge and a maraschino cherry.
    Cheers! 🍹
