History & Origin

The Santorini Sunset pays homage to the island's world-famous sunsets, when visitors gather along the caldera rim to watch the sky turn orange and pink over the Aegean Sea. This cocktail captures those colors and flavors using Santorini's distinctive Assyrtiko wine as a base, combined with honey (recalling ancient Greek wine traditions) and fresh citrus.
