Dunya
Build ∙ 2 min ∙ 9.6% ABV ∙
The Dunya is a low-ABV built cocktail of quince rakija, limoncello, dry Marsala, chamomile cordial, tonic water, and dry sparkling wine, served in a wine glass. Delicate and floral, with quince and chamomile up front, a bittersweet Marsala thread underneath, and a crisp, faintly bitter tonic-and-sparkling-wine finish.

Tips
- Pour in the order the card lists — rakija, limoncello, Marsala and chamomile cordial before the tonic and sparkling wine — then give it one brief stir.
- Use one large cube or a few large ice chunks rather than crushed ice, since the tonic and sparkling wine already add cold volume and fizz.
- Stir the rakija, limoncello, Marsala and chamomile cordial together briefly before topping, so the fortified base ingredients integrate before the carbonated components go in.
- Express the lemon twist over the surface and rest it on the rim rather than dropping it in, keeping the citrus oil aromatic rather than muddling into the drink.
