Fra le tante varieta’ di bevande che invadono il mercato finlandese nel periodo delle feste, l’anno scorso abbiamo scoperto questo ottimo drink leggermente gassato, dal colore festivo e dal gusto che ricorda il panpepato: si chiama Rudolf’s Red Mule.
Il nome fa il verso ad un cocktail famoso, il Moscow Mule, ma nella versione di Rudolf, il quale, come sapete tutti, e’ la renna ammiraglia della slitta di Babbo Natale che col suo naso rosso fa luce nella notte. Quindi un drink leggero, sotto i 5 gradi alcolici, ma molto gustoso, fatto con birra aromatizzata con vari ingredienti: limone, vaniglia, lampone, zenzero e cannella, cardamomo. Ideale per qualsiasi brindisi di Capodanno!
Delizioso!!
La presentazione sulla lattina e’ originale e intraducibile: un misto fra parole di canzoni popolari natalizie e ingredienti (la potete leggere nella versione in inglese qui sotto).
Salute! Kippis!
A Toast in Red.
Among the large variety of beverages appeared on the market in the festive period, I have chosen to share with you this agreeable spicy drink: the Rudolf’s Red Mule. (It was on the market last year).
Its colour is festive red, its taste is light (below 5% alchohol) and with pleasant bubbles it can accompany every New Year’s toast!
Its name comes from a famous cocktail, the Moscow Mule, but in the Rudolf’s version, the head-reindeer of Santa’s crew. It consists in beer flavoured with Lemon, Vanilla, Raspberry juice, Cinnamon & Cardamom syrup, Ginger juice.
The presentation on the back of the can is a mixture of Finnish traditional Christmas carols and list of ingredients: “Stop worrying about the ordinary day tasks because this red nose leads you to the refreshing paradise. In the night of elves the Christmas tree is built of cardamom and ginger taste, which will jingle your sledge bells until the snow smells of the coming spring”.
Delicious!
Kippis! Cheers!
