Nuka-Fusion

Had a Transfusion cocktail years ago, thought it was very disappointing, has been on my backburner to try and make it better. Bethesda Softworks and Jones Soda doing the Vault Tec Soda collab gave me an excuse! I give you the Nuka Fusion. The cranberry juice tempers the overwhelming sweetness of the grape soda, but at the same time, the grape soda masks the alcohol, this drink is DANGEROUS.

(I’m a certified bartender as well, so expect cocktail recipes too!)

Ingredients

  • Highball glass, filled with ice
  • 2 oz vodka
  • 1/2 oz lime juice
  • 1/2 oz ginger liqueur
  • Cranberry juice
  • Nuka Grape (or grape soda of your choice)

Instructions

  1. Take the highball glass with ice, add vodka, lime juice, and ginger liqueur. Top with cranberry juice until about a 1/3 of the glass is empty.
  2. Roll the glass (pour the drink into a metal shaker or other glass, then pour back into the highball glass).
  3. Top with grape soda, add straw, and enjoy!

Yield: 1 drink
