Astronaut recipe
When you set out to make the perfect Astronaut Drink, there are some important things to keep in mind. Firstly, the balance between the ingredients is crucial for the right taste experience. Gin, Sprite and grenadine must be mixed in precise proportions to achieve the desired sweetness and freshness. In addition, careful serving is important – especially when it comes to adding the fun Vingumi teddy bears as a festive decoration. Make sure to serve your Astronaut Drink well chilled, so that it gives you the optimal, refreshing experience.
Ingredients
- 4cl gin
- 10cl Booze
- 3cl grenadine
- Vingumi teddy bears
Astronaut drink step by step
- 1. Fill a glass with ice cubes to ensure a cool drink.
- 2. Add 4 cl of gin to the glass.
- 3. Carefully pour 10cl of Sprite over the gin to create a refreshing base.
- Use the back of a spoon to create a slow stream of 3 cl of grenadine into the glass. This will create a nice layered effect, where the grenadine sinks to the bottom and mixes with the other ingredients.
- Garnish with Vingumi teddy bears on top to add a playful and festive feel.
Serving tips
To achieve a multi-colored effect like that found in the Astronaut ice cream, pour the grenadine and Blue Curaçao very carefully along the rim of the glass or use a teaspoon to guide the liquid down the glass.
For an extra fun twist, consider adding a few wine gummies or other candy that can swim in the cocktail as a tribute to the childlike joy that ice cream brings.
Astronaut variations
Origin: The Astronaut drink originates from the well-known Astronaut ice cream, known for its lemonade flavor, which is popular in Denmark.
Gin as an alternative: While classic Astronaut contains vodka, you can use gin to add another flavor dimension. Depending on the type of gin, the drink can have a sweet citrus profile or a more spicy and bitter character.
Astronaut Non-alcoholic version
To make the Astronaut drink child-friendly, it can be made without alcohol, making it a hit at children's birthday parties. Replace the alcohol with an extra amount of soda or a non-alcoholic gin to preserve the flavor, and garnish with wine gummies to make it extra appealing to the little ones.
Other ice cream-inspired cocktails
The Astronaut drink is just one example of how classic ice cream varieties can be transformed into refreshing cocktails. Like the refreshing one Copenhagen bar cocktails, The champagne shower or the sweet Filur, there are many opportunities to bring the taste of childhood ice cream favorites into adult cocktail experiences.
