Tribute to a King – Paul Bara Brut Reserve
This is actually the last drink I mixed in our old apartment. Yet, I was not happy with the pictures I took in a hurry. So, I remixed the drink and also used the chance to present you a tasty champagne.

Bird is Bored – Glengoyne Cask Strength
Lately, I have been diving a bit into Scotch again. It might have something to do that I joined a Whisky regular’s table. For a first article, I chose the Glengoyne Cask Strength and I tried to keep things fairly simple.
Tropical Month 2024 – Turnbuckle
I have to admit that I regularly neglect to remix interesting recipes. The reason for that is that I have a long backlog of already mixed drinks and an even longer one of recipe ideas. Yet, with the ‘Turnbuckle’ I managed to make the cocktail almost as soon as I discovered the recipe.
A Nordic Blueberry Sour – I’ve Been Dazed
I got a long backlog of drinks I did not get around to write about. However, the list of cocktail ideas is even longer. Well, this time I am presenting an absolutely delicious cocktail to you. However, I do not really recall what the motivation behind it was.

Homebar Awards 02/23 – Wings of Love
A short break from Tropical Month 2023 for this month’s Home Bar Awards challenge and Soundtrack My Friend’s Drink Vol. 13. Just in time for Valentine’s Day the task was to draw inspiration from a love or heartbreak song. In this case, I chose the song ‘Wings of Love’ from the supergroup LIV.
Dry January 2023 – The Future
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!
Aeroplane Blues – Drinksyndikat Port Cask
Here is a drink with a new rum from Drinksyndikat. Actually, the rum itself is not at all new, but instead was marked by Wagemut before. Drinksyndikat basically adopted the recipe from Nicolas Kroeger. For the cocktail I went for a Paper Plane variation.
