A funny iPhone/iPod application by MIDORI


A while ago on the Midori's website was released a very nice iPhone application, which allows you to mix and shake some of your favorite cocktails that contains this nice melon-flavored liqueur! I find it really appealing and it gives me some ideas. By this application you can freely reading and memorizing cocktails in your free time if you are a bartender. Or perhaps if you go to a bar you can show to bartender what exactly you want by showing him the exact proportions of your drink or exactly how you want to look like, what garnish you want, etc.

The application has over 120 drinks recipes and really nice graphics. But the thing I find the most is the fun that you can have! You can shake your iPhone/iPod and listen to the nice sound that the ice cubes make:)  Though Midori is a japanese concern the service is available in Japanese and English. 

Here are the functions :
