Mezcal

Oaxacan Dragon

It’s just a margarita riff!So look up a recipe if you need one. Same spec as normal. I just used @speakeasieruk Spring Dragon mix with Mezcal, @mezcalverde.I’m fresh out of @doshombres, because it’s not that easy to get here. Their smokiness would work so well with the Dragon Mix. Than some lime juice and Curaçao. […]

Chocolate Boulevardier

Recipe from @t1m_kirkland I saw Tim posted this, and asked him about infusing the Vermouth instead of the Campari, like i had done before. Tim told me he used about 200ml of vermouth to about 15-30ml of cacao nibs, let them infused for about a week. So i did! I’m always up for playing around […]

The White Lotus

Recipe by @proof.tv from Insta.“These gays, they are trying to murder me” should be the alternative name 😊 I asked Rob what kind of drink he fancied tonight. I usually don’t give him a whole lot of choice. He usually just drinks what I make. However, last night, I did say, “pick a colour for […]

Mezcal, Triple Sec

How to Kill a Friend

From Imbibe Shouldn’t it be more like, ‘How to Save a Friend’? A slight twist on a Jungle Bird, with a sweet/tart taste. Yes, it goes beautifully with the smoky goodness that is Mezcal. Tonight I’m using Banhez, from @banhezmezcalartesanal, a farmer and family owned brand from Oaxaca, Mexico. I’m not really sure who created […]

Tequila

Patrón Paloma Roja

Recipe from @stephane.foisy.186 I saw this recipe Stephane posted yesterday, and knew I would make it. As it turned out, I had just made some hibiscus syrup just a couple of hours before he had posted this. I used a recipe from my @bohemianmixology book, and wanted to use it. I don’t have the hibiscus […]

Ramos Gin Fizz

I had never had one before, nor ever attempted to make one. I watched a video the other day with @stevethebartender, where he tried 3 different variations […]
