Sex on the Beach is a cocktail that has many variations.
General types
There are two general types of the cocktail:
- The first type is made from vodka, peach schnapps, orange juice, and cranberry juice. This is an International Bartenders Association Official Cocktail.
- The second type is made from vodka, Chambord, Midori Melon Liqueur, pineapple juice, and cranberry juice. This type is listed in the Mr. Boston Official Bartender's Guide.[1]
The drink is built over ice in a highball glass and garnished with orange slice.[2] Sometimes they are mixed in smaller amounts and served as a shooter.
Variations
Several variations are sometimes referred to by the same name:
- Hard Rock Cafe's recipe is based on the second form, calling for vodka, Midori, Chambord, lemon juice, pineapple juice and sugar syrup, shaken and strained over ice into a Collins glass.
- Other variations use both orange juice and pineapple juice.
- Coconut rum is often substituted for the vodka.
- Grenadine is sometimes used in place of cranberry juice, especially in locales where cranberry juice is hard to come by.
- Amaretto is sometimes added for extra flavor.
- Sex on the Beach is often made as a shooter by using half vodka, half peach schnapps and a bit of grenadine.
- Yet another variation of the basic Vodka, peach schnapps, orange juice, & cranberry juice recipe is the addition of apple schnapps. This recipe can be served as either a cocktail or a shooter.
Some derivative variations have their own names:
- "Sex on Fire" is Sex on the Beach with Fireball Cinnamon Whisky in place of the vodka.[citation needed]
- A "Woo Woo" is Sex on the Beach without orange juice.[3]
- The alcohol-free variation is sometimes referred to as "Safe Sex on the Beach" or "Virgins on the Beach".[4]
