Drink recipes: Feijoa dancer

The Feijoa Dancer is a cocktail which is made up of 42 Below Feijoa vodka, Apple Sourz, Southern Comfort, Red Bull and lemonade. Other bourbons may be used but it is found that Southern Comfort is the best due to it’s soft and sweet flavour. It is this which softens the kick of the vodka. The addition of Red Bull and lemonade makes the Feijoa Dancer a cocktail which lacks alcohol flavour whilst still being very high in alcohol content.

The Feijoa Dancer was invented in 2005 by Paul Dodd and during 2006 it gained popularity between his friends and colleagues and is now served in several Auckland bars and nightclubs.
