Croatian Cocktails Take to the Skies

We've stumbled through Hungary, Slovakia and the Czech Republic proving that alcohol is a hot theme in Eastern Europe, and now it's Croatia's turn. An entrepreneurial barman from Zadar on the Dalmatian coast is selling rich tourists the Wings of Zadar cocktail.

This mix starts life as a normal enough drink based on Maraschino liqueur. Then things get literally a bit loopy: the barman takes to the sky and pours the mix in freefall, shaking it by turning flips. The chilly air you find up at 10,000 feet cools the liquid perfectly and it's finally served up in a tall glass on a beach in Zadar. Sounds like a perfect summer adventure to us.
