At first taste, I notice the sweetness from the candy corn infusion. It’s sugary but balanced, making it delightful for those with a sweet tooth.
The hints of vanilla and marshmallow add a creamy texture. It’s smooth, almost like dessert in a glass.
I also catch a slight citrus note from the orange liqueur. This tanginess lifts the sweetness, making the drink refreshing.
