Description

Midori is a bright, green-coloured, muskmelon-flavored cordial made by Suntory. It is manufactured in Japan, Mexico, and France, though it was made only in Japan until 1987. It was first concocted in 1978, with a launch party held in New York's famous Studio 54. Midori is usually 2021% alcohol by volume. The name comes from midori, the Japanese word for "green". As it is extremely sweet, Midori is generally used in a mixed drink or cocktail; for example, a Japanese slipper. It is usually used in a range of long drinks with lemonade, fresh lemon juice, lime juice, pineapple juice or orange juice. Sour flavours are often used to balance its sweetness.
