Flavors
is an alcoholic cocktail that has been a beloved classic since the early 20th century. Its flavor profile is complex and somewhat sweet, with a distinct tartness. It starts off with apple brandy as its base, which adds a pleasant fruity sweetness to the drink. This sweetness gets balanced out by lemon or lime juice and grenadine, giving it some tartness.
