Isaac – Bib & Tucker Six-Year-Old
For the next drink in this series on American Whiskey cocktails, I made a Boulevardier variation. Additionally, I drew some inspiration from the White Negroni to come up with a kind of combination of the two drinks.

Child Prodigy – Cava de Oro Plata
I thought I would make it a hat trick and write about the third tequila drink in a row. This time it is all about a great blanco tequila in combination with White Negroni variation. With a little extra in the form of a strawberry pepper bitters.

Therefore, I created two completely different drinks which both have in common that they are a great combination of juniper notes and eau de vies. On top of […]
