Flavor Profile and Tasting Notes for Kiss Land Coffee Liqueur Cocktail

Sheringham Coffee Liqueur creates this sweet and fizzy Kiss Land cocktail that combines rich coffee notes with bright raspberry sweetness and refreshing bubbles. The coffee liqueur provides deep, roasted flavors while raspberry jam adds fruity sweetness and the soda brings light effervescence for a balanced drinking experience.

The flavors work together in layers, starting with coffee richness on the nose, followed by sweet raspberry on the palate, and finishing with a clean, fizzy sensation. The Sheringham Coffee Liqueur delivers premium java complexity that pairs beautifully with the fruit elements. Sweet vermouth adds depth and balances the acidity from lemon juice. If you prefer less sweetness, reduce the raspberry jam by half, or add more soda for a lighter profile.

Coffee and Raspberry Flavor Balance

The raspberry jam sweetens the coffee without overwhelming its roasted character. This creates a dessert-like cocktail that maintains sophistication through the vermouth’s herbal notes and the bright acidity from fresh lemon juice.
