The Saturn cocktail is a tiki drink with a complex and fruity taste. Originally developed by J. “Popo” Galsini in 1967, it features both gin and rum, along with passionfruit syrup, lemon juice, and orgeat.
This combination of flavors creates a tangy and sweet drink that is perfect for a summer evening. The Saturn cocktail is typically served in a tiki mug with a straw and garnished with a cherry and a slice of lime. While originally popular in the 1960s and 1970s, the Saturn cocktail has regained popularity in recent years as the tiki drink trend has resurfaced.
