There’s something about sunsets — the colours, the calm, and the promise of a good night ahead. The Citrus Sundowner captures that very feeling in a glass. Built on the sweet, fresh vibrancy of Alkemmy Summer Cider (orange, mango, and a playful kick of pepper), this cocktail is the kind of drink that instantly turns an ordinary evening into a vibe. Paired with vodka and soda, it’s light, crisp, and perfect for warm evenings or a houseparty that begins before the sun sets.
