Wormhole

Wormhole

The Wormhole is a coffee based low ABV highball drink by Ryan Perry. There is no sweetener in it so it's a rather earthy and bitter flavour experience you're in for. But as the alcohol is low it still becomes a very refreshing acquaintance. The coffee in the recipe means this is a good brunch cocktail. The mint used as garnish is home grown. The plant is not huge yet (hence the tiny sprig in the drink) but with all the heat we are currently experiencing it will soon be a big plant! Hence, expec

April in Paris

April in Paris

When your strawberry loving mum visits, and you want to impress her with a cocktail, you serve an April in Paris. This gorgeously pink drink is composed by David Vaughn and we found the recipe in Imbibe Magazine. And I'm proud to say this cocktail got mum's approval. She adored the cocktail, both its look and its flavour. It's a refreshing experience and the strawberry and the elderflower shine through. Vodka is a good base in this drink, as it lets those other fruit flavors take center stage.

Full Sneak

Full Sneak

From the The Fortune Teller Bar, St. Louis comes the Full Sneak. It's a whiskey highball topped with ginger, lemon and port wine. This one is so refreshing. Perfect for the hot summer days to come. And that's also how we tried to style the drink adding both a pretty flower as well as a seagull. We think whiskey and ginger pair particularly well. There are quite a few recipes out there taking full advantage of this successful combination. Most of them are regular cocktails though, so we thought

Shipwrecked

Shipwrecked

The Shipwrecked cocktail by Raffi Jergerian might be more of an autumn cocktail. But we gladly made it also now during spring as it's anyway such a delicious cocktail. With both rum and cinnamon syrup in the ingredients list this is kind of a tiki cocktail, minus the traditional tiki styling and garnishing. What might look like a simple cocktail when served turns out to be a quite complex flavor experience. The rum paired with the scotch, accompanied by cinnamon and sweet Drambuie surely creat

Five Point Palm Exploding Heart Technique

Five Point Palm Exploding Heart Technique

The Five Point Palm Exploding Heart Technique cocktail might sound a bit violent (referring to the death blow in Kill Bill). And sure, this mezcal based drink is both characteristic, messy and loud - but in the most wonderful of ways! Mellowing that mezcal a bit is what the coffee liqueur in the recipe is doing. And this was the perfect opportunity for us to try out Conkerspirit's [https://www.conkerspirit.co.uk/] Cold Brew Coffee Liqueur. This is a premium product made with Brazilian and Ethio

Blank Slate

Blank Slate

The Blank Slate by Sean Hord is a Jägermeister driven cocktail. Also in the mix are grapefruit juice, lemon juice, pear brandy and ginger syrup! Basically a flavour explosion you will not forget very soon It tastes really delicious. It's herbal, bitter, stingy, sour and sweet - all at once. The silky look of the cocktail further enhance the impression this cocktail makes. Also our excitement for this vintage Woodmet tray is big. We've seen quite a few varietes of these trays (made in the 1980s

Analogue's Gin & Juice

Analogue's Gin & Juice

The Gin & Juice from Analogue in NYC is a very refreshing yet elegant cocktail. Gin and grapefruit combined equals a pretty bitter cocktail, but it's freshened up by sweet maraschino and sour lemon. This is actually a great spring cocktail, and a solid gin drink. We used pink grapefruit juice rather than regular, as we only had that on hand. It gave the cocktail a pretty colour without altering the flavour too much. Analogue's Gin & Juice Recipe Ingredients: 2 oz gin 0,5 oz maraschino liqueu
