Product details
Smirnoff Cherry Drop 70cl is a cherry-flavoured spirit drink from Smirnoff, made with Smirnoff vodka and natural cherry aromas and bottled at 35% ABV. The flavour is sweet and tangy, with ripe red cherry lifted by a hint of citrus. Because it is bottled below the 37.5% minimum for vodka, it counts as a flavoured spirit rather than a cherry vodka in the legal sense, and it is designed for long drinks rather than neat serves. It suits adults who enjoy fruit-forward highballs with cola, lemonade or soda. Wodka Company delivers Smirnoff Cherry Drop to UK customers, packed and sent from London.
Cherry Drop tasting notes
- Nose: Ripe red cherry and a little lemon peel.
- Palate: Sweet and tangy, like cherry compote brightened with citrus.
- Finish: Short and fruity, ending on a tart cherry-stone note.
How to serve Smirnoff Cherry Drop
Serve it well chilled over ice in a tall glass with a mixer, using about three parts mixer to one part spirit. Cherry works naturally with chocolate and almonds, so try it beside dark chocolate, a Black Forest gâteau, a cherry clafoutis or a Bakewell tart. It fits a relaxed evening with friends, a summer barbecue or the dessert course at a dinner party.
Long drinks with Smirnoff Cherry Drop
- Cherry Cola: 50 ml over ice in a highball, topped with 150 ml cola and a wedge of lime.
- Cherry Lemonade: 50 ml over ice with 150 ml sparkling lemonade and a couple of fresh cherries.
- Cherry Almond Sour: 40 ml shaken with 15 ml amaretto and 20 ml lemon juice, strained over fresh ice in a rocks glass.
How it compares
Against Smirnoff Raspberry Crush, which is berry-led at 37.5% ABV, Cherry Drop is tangier and a little lower in strength. Smirnoff Vanilla offers a creamier, dessert-style alternative from the same brand. For a dry, unflavoured option, Smirnoff Red is the classic choice.
Good to know
Smirnoff is a Diageo brand. A 70cl bottle stretches across plenty of highballs, which makes it a practical choice for a party, and fresh cherries make an easy garnish when they are in season in early summer.
