The Crimson Avenger

character:

Dandelion

vodka

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

The Crimson Avenger is inspired by Dandelion, the ever-charismatic bard from The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. This cocktail balances bold vodka, sweet-tart homemade raspberry juice, smooth maraschino liqueur, and a bright kick of lemon juice. A maraschino cherry speared on a swizzle stick provides a perfect finishing touch—just as memorable as one of the bard’s unforgettable performances. This drink is as charming and bold as Dandelion himself.
