The Lemon Pie Martini - French Eurovision Cocktail Recipe
Whether its to celebrate Eurovision or you just want to know what a lemon pie cocktail tastes like. This French cocktail recipe is a great way to do just that.
It also happens to taste like a fresh slice of Lemon Pie! But I’m assuming you guessed that already…
How to make a cocktail French
There’s a few ways to make a cocktail fit the theme of a country.
You could make it look like the country. Check out this Ukraine cocktail for an example of just that. It’s colours match the Ukraine flag, blue and yellow.
You could also garnish the cocktail with something that would suit a country. Like this Eurovision cocktail that represents the UK garnished with English strawberries and mint.
The last option is to use ingredients and flavours that represent that country. Which is actually what we’re doing with this cocktail made easy by Flävar - A Swedish Schnapps brand infused with Swedish flavours. Yet this particular flavour is of lemon pie. Typically something you will see on French dessert menus.
But just in case you thought that was a loose connection, we’re also adding in a healthy glug of French Vodka.

Lemon Pie Flävar
But more about that Swedish Schnapps Flävar.
Each of these Eurovision cocktails will use one of the 5 flavours of Flävar. This one will use Lemon Pie.
And oh my god let me be the first to tell you. This tastes just like lemon pie! It’s also a new release from the guys at Flävar so that’s exciting.
It also happens to be the second drink I’ve made for Eurovision with this lemon pie schnapps. I also used it in a Finland Flag layered shot recipe so do check that out here.
