Tropical Month 2024 – Big Bird
Tropical Month would not be complete without a Jungle Bird variation. In this case, I added more complexity through pineapple rum as well as a famous German herbal liqueur.

Tropical Month 2024 – Bricks & Mortar
I was wondering if you could turn the peculiar Arsenic And Old Lace cocktail into a tropical drink. While the Original is weird, its mix of ingredients is also very intriguing. So, I set to work and this is the delicious result!
Tropical Month 2024 – Ballad of Yaya
I came up with this drink during Tropical Month 2023, but did not came around to write about it. Since this was a great combination of flavours, I thought I just post it this year. However, this also means I am not completely sure how I got to the specific recipe.
Dry January 2024 – Saints Preservus
Last, but not least, I am featuring a non-alcoholic cocktail I came up with last year, but only got around to try now. The drink features some trending ingredients and also sticks to the theme of this year’s Dry January – tea.
10th Anniversary – The Other Way
This is the first drink I ever posted to Augustine-Bar.de. Obviously, I had to revisit it for the 10th anniversary of my blog. If you take part in the giveaway on Instagram, you have the chance to remix it, too.
In Birdsong – Spiritus Rex Rowan
So, I realized that I had some Spiritus Rex eau de vies on hand which I did not present so far. The 10th anniversary of my blog coming up gave me the perfect excuse to present them. This article features the most common one of the three wild fruit eau de vies.
The Wild Mecury – Satoshi Cuvée
Sometimes there goes a lot of thought into my recipes. Some other time the drink starts with its title and I create a suitable cocktail for the song / music reference. Yet, in this case, I started with two ingredients which were coincidentally standing around in my living room at the same time.
House Godfather – Double Whisky & Amarettos
This is just my version of the classic Godfather cocktail. Not that this cocktail gets requested often. Yet, I thought I come up with the best possible version for my taste. Obviously, this means that the easy drink got a bit more complicated.
Rainbow Valley – A Low ABV Refresher
Here is another drink to reminisce on summer! A lower ABV highball which serves as a perfect refresher for the hotter days, or as an excellent Aperitif. I just wanted to play around with the flavours here and use rosemary as a garnish.
Go to Hell – Papadiablo Espadin
I guess it is a bit late to post watermelon cocktails. However, when I made the drink back in September there were still tropical temperatures out there. So, this might just serve as a reminder of the next, overly hot summer to come!
