The Next Level of Homemade Drinks
I really like using tea in non-alcoholic cocktails. This time the drink was inspired by a classic fizz. However, the spirit is replaced with an organic alpine herbs tea. On top of that, I again used an organic, alcohol-free cider in the recipe!
The first regular Home Bar Awards Challenge in 2022 is about Ramos Gin Fizz Reels. – I have to admit that I am rarely mixing a Ramos Gin Fizz, not because I do not like them, but because they are quite labour intensive. Nevertheless, I came up with a variation inspired by exotic spices.

There is always a new gin to try. This time, it is a handcrafted gin from Belgium, which carries a special pepper in its name. Apart from that, the name is also a reference to the prohibition. For a ticket, you could see a “blind tiger” in the back room and apart from that an […]
