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 – AB Rum Punch
It might be an underrated tropical drink, but the Rum Punch does deserve a closer look. Therefore, I came up with my own version. I actually mixed this drink back in 2022. This means, I am diving deep into the recipe backlog here.
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.

This is it! To the day ten years ago, I started this blog and posted my first cocktail recipe. While I kept doing what I love, nowadays it is about finding the time to shoot the pictures, postproduction, writing and publishing. However, for my anniversary post, I have something special for you!

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!
Wicked Soul – Contratto Fernet
I do love Amaros, so I am very happy to try out a new Fernet. On top of that, I had an atypical vermouth to sample as well. So, I came up with a weird drink featuring both – and Träkal…
