Cocktail Mixology
Chelsea’s Tasting Notes
Crystal Head Onyx Shot
- Nice!
- I love how the flavor builds on your tongue.
- We did Simply Apple in one and Honeycrisp Treetop in another.
- Even the apple juice changes it.
- It’s like a perfect autumn drink.
- It’s got that nice crisp, like eating a fresh apple.
Skull Candy Cocktail
- That doesn’t taste like vodka, it tastes like tequila!
- It’s good, but it’s definitely confusing.
- It does have that tequila taste to it, but not the burn.
Erick’s Tasting Notes
Crystal Head Onyx Shot
- Delightful
- I taste mostly apple and a little of the St. Germaine.
- I like them both, they’re very good.
- I like that this drink doesn’t require ice.
- It’s pretty much like a spiked apple juice, very refreshing.
- It’s what we would call a dangerous drink.
- If you’re an apple fan, by all means.
Skull Candy Cocktail
- That’s the beauty of vodka is that you can do pretty much anything with it.
