Alcoholic Cocktail Any Glass 3 ingredients

Recipe

  • 3 parts Wine (Red)
  • 2 parts Coca Cola
  • 1 part Bacardi Silver O3

Instructions

Greg Taylor made this drink while at a college theatre cast party. For its odd call for ingredients, its still popular. Since a party cup is listed as the beverage holder, and the ABV isn't quite known yet, the exact measure is never perfect, but if you're in a hurry for a buzz, start with this. The aftertaste is that of a nice Sour Strawberry. Enjoy, folks!Its easier to just guess when pouring one of these. The way you fill it is your choice, but the order is pyramid from largest to smallest, adding the extras afterward: White Z. first, then the Coke/Soda (Cola), then the Biaardi. Optional slice of Strawberry or dallop of Whipped Cream. No need for mixing, watching the drink swirl (if you've done it right) is nice eye-Candy for the prospective drinker whos next in line. The extras are just for kicks.

About Strawberry Buster

The Strawberry Buster is a delightful and refreshing cocktail that combines the rich, robust flavors of red wine with the fizzy sweetness of Coca Cola, and the citrusy punch of Bacardi Silver O3. This unique blend results in a drink that is both sophisticated and playful, making it perfect for a variety of occasions. The cocktail is characterized by its deep red hue, courtesy of the wine, and it offers a harmonious balance of sweet, tart, and slightly bitter notes. The inclusion of Bacardi Silver O3 adds a touch of tropical zest, elevating the overall experience with a hint of citrus.

The origins of the Strawberry Buster are somewhat elusive, as it seems to be a modern invention rather than a drink steeped in decades of tradition. It likely emerged as an experimental concoction, capitalizing on the popular trend of mixing wine with cola—a combination known as "Kalimotxo" in Spain. The addition of Bacardi Silver O3 to this mix brings a fresh twist, appealing to those who enjoy innovative and flavorful cocktails. While it may not have a long history, the Strawberry Buster has quickly garnered a following among those who appreciate its bold and refreshing profile.

This cocktail is alcoholic, so drink responsibly! Best served in a Any Glass, though any glass works!

Feel free to get creative with substitutions — try different fruit types, sugar substitutes, or liquor brands. Crafting cocktails should be fun!
