The Next Level of Homemade Drinks
The Macbeth whisky series is a cooperation of Elixir Distillers, Livingstone, Dave Broom as well as illustrator Sir Quentin Blake. There will be 42 whiskies in total in five acts. Each whisky / characters belongs to one of six categories: The Leads, the Thanes, the Witches, the Murderers, the Ghosts and the Household.
A friend recommended the Laphroaig Lore years ago. Yet, I only managed to review it just now. Obviously, this new The Cask Lore version is a single malt for sipping neat. However, I could not resist coming up with a cocktail recipe anyway.
Flavoured rums are a thing for a while now, so it is no wonder that also some crazy ones pop up. In this case, we are reviewing the Cinecane Popcorn Rum. While that immediately evokes the association with cinema and therefore cola, I decided to go in a dessert cocktail style drink.
