The Next Level of Homemade Drinks
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!
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…
It’s been a while since I tried different glasses for eau de vies. So, here is an update on which glass works for which fruit spirit. I tried eighteen different glasses with six different eau de vies. All in all, there were some surprises, but also some obvious discoveries.
Who says that there are too many White Negroni variations out there? For this special drink I added a bit of extra gentian (& apple) eau de vie and lemon eau de vie. In this context, I am also introducing a new gin to you.

I have been quite busy lately, so it was hard to keep up the pace of posting. Nevertheless, there is another drink in the spirit of agave month. It features a rather rare Makrut lime eau de vie from Matthias Sievert. On top of that, once again my friend Torben from Trinklaune and I collaborated […]
Great minds think alike: Some time ago, my namesake Instagram buddy Matthias Tetaert came up with a Mandarin Mai Tai variation. So, I thought I would start Tropical Month 2023 with the recipe I came up with around the same time. On top of that, I also had an excellent mandarin liqueur I want to […]
For Adam’s Christmas edition of Soundtrack My Friend’s Drink, I created a seasonal cocktail for Peter Ross. Browsing through his posts, I got the idea to come up with a Christmassy Garibaldi variation. Brace yourself for some cacao and eau de vie in this!
So far I have written about the classic Negroni and its variations from other barkeepers. So, here are two variations from myself. While the first one shows how I would prepare your Negroni if you would be my guest, the second one takes everything a bit further. Some even would say too far…
With our wedding on the way, it is hard for me to find time for writing. Nevertheless, I want to share this short article on a tequila milk punch with you. The special thing about it is that I also added some flavour to the milk. Let us see how the drink turned out!
