The Universe
This exquisite cocktail took home the grand prize at the US Bartenders Guild Annual Competition in 1978.
Its major sales point is the superb balance achieved between five different ingredients, that manages to maintain each one’s unique characteristics.
Everyone knows MIDORI goes well with pineapple juice, but the addition of pistachio liqueur in the same quantity as MIDORI works as a perfect complementary accent.
The drink is well-balanced enough without the vodka, but adding vodka gives it that extra kick and makes it an even more rounded cocktail.
