Ingredients

• 2 oz Vodka
• 1 oz Midori (melon liqueur)
• 1 oz Sour mix
• 3 oz Lemon-lime soda
• 0.5 oz Grenadine
• 1 cup Ice cubes
• 1 piece Lime wheel (for garnish)
• 2 tbsp Sugar (optional for rim)

Directions

Step 1

If you prefer a sugar-rimmed glass, start by running a lime wedge around the rim of a highball or cocktail glass. Dip the rim into sugar to coat, then set the glass aside.

Step 2

In a cocktail shaker, combine vodka, Midori, sour mix, and grenadine with a handful of ice cubes.

Step 3

Shake well for about 10-15 seconds, until the mixture is thoroughly chilled.

Step 4

Fill the prepared glass with ice cubes, leaving some room at the top for soda.

Step 5

Strain the shaken mixture into the glass over the ice.

Step 6

Top off the cocktail with lemon-lime soda, pouring gently to preserve the fizz.

Step 7

Give the drink a light stir to incorporate the soda.

Step 8

Garnish with a lime wheel on the edge of the glass and serve immediately. Enjoy!
