Cocktail of the Week: The Kiss

This recipe was in Texas Monthly magazine a couple years ago. It supposedly comes from the ever-so-hip Hotel ZaZa's Dragonfly bar here in Dallas. It's what my other half would refer to as a "tutti-frutti," a sweetish drink that is just slightly girly. Who cares? It's delicious.

The Kiss

2 ounces raspberry vodka (like Stoli Razberi)
1 ounce fresh lemon juice
1 ounce simple syrup
1 ounce Chambord liqueur
Slice of lemon for garnish

Shake vodka, lemon juice and simple syrup in an ice-filled cocktail shaker. Strain into a chilled, sugar-rimmed cocktail glass. Pour Chambord carefully down side of glass; it will sink to the bottom and create a layered look. Garnish with the lemon slice.
