Le Kern's

1 1⁄3 oz Vodka (Chilled)
1⁄3 oz Lime juice
2 2⁄3 oz Apple cider (Chilled)
Instructions

Shake vodka, crème de cassis, and lime juice with ice until well chilled. Strain into a balloon wine glass over a large clear ice sphere. Top with brut cider and stir gently. Garnish with a thin slice of red apple on the rim and a few floating red berries.

Notes

Le Kern’s is a festive, fruit-forward cocktail that combines the sparkle of brut cider with the richness of cassis and the clean punch of vodka. The lime juice keeps it bright and refreshing, making it perfect for both casual gatherings and special occasions.

History

Created in Normandy by mixologist Louis Kernelle in 2025, Le Kern’s was inspired by the region’s iconic apple cider and the desire to craft a drink that is approachable for students yet refined enough to please seasoned cocktail lovers.

Sprezzatura (BroVo)

1 oz BroVo American Aperitivo
1 oz Tequila (The original recipe mentions mezcal as an alternative)
1⁄4 oz Lime juice
4 oz Grapefruit soda (We use Portland Syrups and Soda water)
Instructions

Mix everything but soda over ice (we used a collins glass) and top with soda. Garnish with grapefruit slices.

Notes

We discovered BroVo looking for a Chartreuse alternative (their Uncharted Rhapsody American Forest Liqueur). We also liked the sound of their American Aperitivo and this made a very nice deeper Paloma.
