The Falling Night Cocktail: A Bold Kiwi & Chocolate Rum Creation with Viking Spirit
The Falling Night cocktail blends bold flavors of kiwi and chocolate with smooth white rum, inspired by fierce Viking nights. Dive into this unique, refreshing drink and uncover the story behind its legendary name.
" The Falling Night "
In the depths of Iceland’s valleys, under a darkened sky, the fearless Vikings clashed in a fierce battle. As swords struck and war horns echoed, the sun seemed to fall—ushering the arrival of the mystical Falling Night. This cocktail draws inspiration from those legendary warriors and their tales of bravery.
Crafted with smooth white rum, vibrant kiwi liqueur, and a touch of rich chocolate liqueur, The Falling Night pays tribute to Viking resilience and celebration. Legend says this was the drink raised high in Valhalla’s halls, where warriors toast “Sköl!” to honor their victories and their gods.
