The French horn is a shooter that has a vibrant red-violet color. Los Angeles bartender JaNee Nisonger demonstrates how to make a French horn with Chambord Liqueur Royale De France. This alcoholic beverage is prepared in a shaker tin and served without ice.
According to Nisonger, the drink is related to the purple hooter, which combines Chambord, vodka and 7-Up soda.http://www.drinksmixer.com/drink1139.html http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SfrSa56BFYA However, a French horn substitutes lemon juice for the 7-Up. This gives it a more intense citrus flavor.
The featured component in this beverage is the Chambord Liqueur Royale De France. It is a fragrant liqueur flavored with framboise (fruit beer), herbs, honey and black raspberries.https://www.wineanthology.com/p-2684-chambord.aspxhttp://www.webtender.com/db/ingred/54 The raspberry flavor dominates the taste. The base alcohol in a French horn is vodka, which is colorless and essentially tasteless.http://www.drinksmixer.com/desc28.html?q=vodka
