Dry January – Olive Hearts
I discovered the Dr. Jaglas Dry Hibiscus when looking for high-quality San Bitter alternatives. This hibiscus flavoured aperitivo just sounded perfect for a little NA-highball.
Summer Drinks
Dry January – Spilt Milk
You often read that creating a good non-alcoholic cocktail is harder than creating one with booze. I totally agree, you have to make up for the lack of flavour and mouthfeel. For Dry January 2025, I rely heavily on caffeine.
Golden Sky – Gin Eva L’Horabaixa
Ever since our visit to Casa Eva in Mallorca this year, I was thinking about their newest gin the L’Horabaixa. It was one of the few new gins that was able to impress me. So, I am very happy that Stefan send me a bottle and I could try the recipe I pitched to him […]
Once Again – Scheibel Blackcurrant Rum
I do enjoy the spritis from Scheibel’s ‘Alte Zeit’ range quite much. Yet, there liqueurs are where they really shine! In this case, I came up with a sparkling wine cocktail using their whisky as well as the new Blackcurrant Rum.
Deep Green – Drilling Pistachio Eau de Vie
I made a drink with homemade pistachio orgeat a while back. When chatting with Torben about it, he suggested a Mai Tai variation with white overproof white rum and pistachio eau de vie.
Dirty Love – Gin Eva La Mallorquina
Obviously, a great Dirty Martini only needs good gin and vermouth as well as some olive brine. Yet, it is also fun to add a little bit of ‘extra’ to the mix. Especially, if you have the perfect Dirty Martini gin on hand!
Yellow Moon – Kilchoman Sauternes Cask
Obviously, the Kilchoman Sauternes Cask with its ageing in sweet wine casks is perfect on its own. Yet, I could not resist mixing up a cocktail with it. I was inspired by the whisky’s packaging in yellow.
Summer Drink ’24 – June’s a River
Every year there is speculation about the new summer drink. In the end, what people really drink sill is the Aperol Spritz. However, this does not mean that you should come up with alternative summer drinks! In this case, I kept it as simple as possible.
Agave Month 2024 – Wrecking Ball
Well, you could call this a Magarita variation or a Agave White Negroni with lime… Whatever you want to call it. The drink really is delicious and a great addition for Agave Month 2024.
Agave Month 2024 – Valle Local
For the start of Agave Month 2024, I have something special for you. On one hand, the drink has mezcal as a base and on the other hand a green mandarin eau de vie. On top of that, the recipe is based on the Last Word cocktail.
