This eerily romantic Phantom Love Song sake cocktail is essentially a French Gimlet that’s smoother, more delicate and perfect for an elegant Halloween party!
This cocktails is similar to a French Gimlet, made with sake instead of Gin. It’s lighter, smoother and more delicate than a traditional French gimlet.
It’s a perfect signature for a party where you want the cocktails to be elegant, light and less intoxicating. I personally don’t want to get too tipsy before 10:00 at parties, and I can have at least 3-4 of these before I start to get the giggles.
Help yourself to the recipe below, and enjoy a little ghostly romance!

This is lovely! I cannot wait to try but I’m racking my brain trying to figure out what this garnish is. It makes the whole drink! Send help!!

Aww. It’s called “snow berry” or “ghost berry.” It’s only available in my florists around late September/October. But you can use a sprig of baby’s breath or white waxflower to give a similar effect 😉

I just made one of these tonight and it was exactly how you described it. Subtle, smooth, and just so good. I liked it better than the French Gimlet, and I’m a huge gin fan.The frosted glass is a must, as is using a decent sake. For simple cocktails like this, the quality of your ingredients become more important than ever. Thanks for posting this!
