We've been given the chance to try a new product from Hotel Starlino - namely a very light and refreshing rosé aperitivo. This bottle could not have arrived at a better point, it is just perfect to use in these type of low ABV longdrinks that fit summer so good.⁠

This aperitivo is bittersweet in just the right way. We don't like overly sweet products, but this rosé certainly balance on the right side of sweetness. We also really enjoy its colour, with this pretty pink appearance it's easy to feel thirsty.⁠

Rum in Cocktails
Barceló Imperial

Rum in Cocktails

Rum is a versatile spirit. It can be enjoyed both neat and in cocktails. It is a vital ingredient in several classic drinks, as well as in newer cocktail creations. Here are suggestions for three fantastic cocktails, made with Barceló Imperial. It is a rum made in the Dominican Republic, aged for up to ten years on oak casks. The rum tastes of caramel, vanilla, toasted nuts and wood - hence making it an excellent rum for mixing cocktails with. In Sweden Barceló Imperial can be ordered here. DO

Plum & Done
A gin cocktail, with plum syrup and lemon

Plum & Done

On a recent visit to Skåne, in the south of Sweden, we stumbled upon a plum tree with thousand of ripe plums on it. We turned them into syrup, and we put some others in rum, to be used as garnish. The result is a gin sour with taste and color from those plums, we call it Plum & Done! 50 ml gin (we used Skånska Spritfabriken's) 30 ml fresh lemon juice 20 ml plum syrup Shake with fresh ice, strain into a chilled coupe and garnish with a brandied plum pierced by a tiny fork.
