Save The Sharks Cocktail

Sharks are our friends! Did you know our parent company, Amyris, saves over 6 million sharks annually by replacing shark-derived ingredients with our sugarcane-derived squalane? We are so proud of our family brands that we show our love for the sharks with a low-sugar save the sharks cocktail! You can even make it a mocktail for the kiddos by replacing alcohol with a little club soda.

Ingredients:

Purecane Raspberry Syrup:

6 oz fresh raspberries (can use strawberries)
½ cup water
6 packets Purecane™ Zero Calorie Sweetener Packets
2 tablespoons lemon juice (about 1 large lemon)

Save The Sharks Cocktail Ingredients:

1 oz Purecane Raspberry Syrup
1 oz lemon juice
1 oz vodka (replace with seltzer for mocktail version)
6 oz seltzer water
6 drops blue food coloring (depending on desired blue color)
Ice
Optional: garnish with reduced sugar fish gummies

Directions

Combine raspberry syrup ingredients in a small pot and bring to a low boil. While cooking, use an immersion blender to get a smooth consistency. Cook until it reaches a syrup consistency (approximately 5 minutes). Set aside to cool.
In a cocktail glass, add about 6 drops of blue food coloring. You can add more to get to your desired blue color.
Add 1 oz of lemon juice and 6 oz of seltzer water.
Add 1 oz vodka. If you’re making a mocktail, replace the vodka with another ounce of seltzer water.
Add ice until just shy of the top of the glass. Optional: garnish with reduced sugar fish gummies. We used Smart Sweets Sweet Fish, and Smart Sweets Peach Rings.
Top with 1 oz of Purecane Raspberry Syrup, or more depending on how sweet you like it.
Enjoy!
