Yeah that could definitely work. I think the sweetness the vanilla would add would balance this really well

FAQ's

Can I substitute the raspberry liqueur in a Chambord Vodka Sour?

Yes, you can substitute the raspberry liqueur with a different berry liqueur, such as blackberry or strawberry liqueur, to maintain the fruity profile. A homemade raspberry syrup can also work if you prefer a non-alcoholic substitute.

What are some recommended garnishes for a Chambord Vodka Sour?

A lemon slice or twist works beautifully with the acidity of the sour, while fresh raspberries or a sprig of mint can enhance the drink's visual appeal and complement its raspberry notes.

What type of occasion is the Chambord Vodka Sour most suited for?

The Chambord Vodka Sour, with its elegant appearance and balance of sweet and sour, is perfect for summer parties, celebratory occasions, or as a sophisticated cocktail choice at a dinner party.

Is there a non-alcoholic version of the Chambord Vodka Sour?

Yes, for a non-alcoholic variation, replace the vodka with soda water or a non-alcoholic spirit, and use a raspberry syrup instead of raspberry liqueur. Adjust the sweet and sour balance with lemon juice and simple syrup as needed.

What's the best way to achieve a well-balanced Chambord Vodka Sour?

The key is in the ratio and shaking technique. Use fresh lemon juice for the sour component, and shake the ingredients vigorously with ice before straining into the glass. This ensures a smooth, chilled drink with a perfect blend of sour and sweet flavors.
