The Next Level of Homemade Drinks
I heavily anticipated the arrival of the Ferrand Dry Curacao Yuzu. The regular one already is my go-to orange curacao, especially in Mai Tais. Obviously, I had to try the new one in a twist on that classic cocktail!
It is time for Soundtrack my Friend’s Drink again! For Volume 14 Adam collected song suggestions reminding us of our youth and randomly assigned them to another participant. In addition, we should include a childhood snack in the drink or as a garnish. So, I went for a high school party inspired mess of ingredients.
Since you can never have enough series going on, I thought I would start a new one. This time it is all about overproof eau de vies. While with whisky and rum overproof is a thing now, eau de vies are usually bottled at drinking-strength. So, we will take a closer look at some exceptions.

Well, I missed the Secret Sante event on Instagram, but for the start of Tropical Month f.k.a. Tiki Month, I decided to still pay tribute to my namesake Matthias Soberon. It is just crazy how many beautiful cocktails he is putting out there every day. So, when Johann from Cocktailbart came up with a Chartreuse […]
After all this bourbon whiskey, it is time to focus on some interesting agave spirit again! In the case of the Don Fulano Fuerte, we are not only talking about a high quality tequila, but it is also bottled at overproof. And I do not have to tell you that a higher ABV is always […]
So, you want to create your own cocktail? Maybe, it is just the thing you have always wanted to do, or you got that new bottle of booze standing around, but no useful recipe at hand. Do not despair, creating your own cocktail is not as hard as you might think! You also do not […]
View in: de en Über den Windspiel Gin wurde an anderer Stelle schon ausführlich berichtet. Dennoch fand ich das Konzept dieses Gins so interessant, dass ich ihn auch auf meinem Blog vorstellen wollte. Besonders die begleitenden Produkte beflügelten meine Drink-Ideen…
