So many choices, so little time! What are you guys drinking this evening?
Paloma
It's #NATIONALTEQUILADAYPEOPLE and we are celebrating with the zingy grapefruit and tequila based Paloma. A classic Mexican drink, even more popular then the margarita in its native land would you believe? Have you tried one of these? 🇲🇽
WTF is Aquavit
So...WTF is Aquavit? Or Akvavit depending where you come from. To break it down it is a flavoured, distilled spirit usually from fermented potato or grain mash that is clear to paleish yellow in colour which is most popular in Scandinavian countries.
Different brands offer different flavour combinations but you usually find things like lemon and orange peel, caraway and cumin seeds.
Our bottle here is from Norway's Linie Aquavit who age their Aquavit in barrels at sea with their ships sailing to Australia and back to get that distinctive flavour! Have you guys ever tried Aquavit?
Screwdriver
Tasty drink, stupid video. Maybe leave the garnish out at the end if you ask for it in a bar! 🙈
So many beers, so little time! We are preparing our new beer series RIGHT NOW...what types of beer would you like to see?! 🍻🍺
Sugar Snap Sipper
We give you the Sugar Snap Sipper my friends. Sugar snap peas in a cocktail? Yup we did it and it tastes delicious. 😋
The sweetness of the peas combine brilliantly with gin, cucumber and lemon juice and lengthened with soda water and garnished with some fragrant mint. 🤤
A beautifully refreshing drink for the summer! Have you guys tried any cocktails with veggies in there?
Summer Sipper Preview
Savoury Summer Sipper soon coming your way my friends. Try saying that three times quickly. But what green tasty veg will it be? It's guessing time tipplers?
WTF is Triple Sec
WTF is Triple Sec?
So this is one tricky one but essentially Triple Sec is a type of orange liqueur, which is also know as a Curacao! 🍊
Like all liqueurs there are loads of variants which ultimately impact on the final product but Triple sec contains orange peel mixed with some kind of strong alcohol (grain, unflavoured, brandy) and sweetened with herbs added. Our example here Cointreau is probably the most well known but we will leave that debate to you guys! 😎
It's used in a variety of classics like the Margarita, Cosmopolitan and White Lady. What's your favourite cocktail with Triple Sec? 🍸
Stir Baby Stir
STIR BABY STIR...Disco Inferno! That's the song right? What are you drinking on this sunny Wednesday?
Dos and Don'ts Strainer
'OH NO! I've unfortunately mislaid my strainer' a common cry heard too often for our liking from drinks enthusiasts.
But fear not, help is at hand...here's a tip to help you out and one that's a bit more...well watch and find out!
Black Russian
Another #15secondcocktail coming your way! This delicious Black Rus
ssian is a super simple but tasty blend of coffee liqueur and vodka. Punchy, tasty and easy to make at home.
Oh and why is it called a Black Russian? It's because it uses vodka, a typical Russian spirit, and the blackness of the coffee liqueur. There you go! How do you come up with the names for your cocktail creations?
