Friday Night Cocktail Revisited
I haven’t been drinking cocktails much recently, last Friday I drank a G&T (the gin was Martin Millers) and a whisky and then I went to bed. Tonight, I’m meeting Christelle for a catch up and not drinking cocktails. There … Continue reading

Satan’s Whiskers I suppose I should wait until Halloween to post this one but it’s good enough that I won’t. If you use Grand Marnier as your triple sec the whiskers are straight, use Cointreau and they’re curled. Little things … Continue reading

I told Ma about this cocktail and she promptly named it Kings Bissap. It’s Kings Ginger, bissap, lime juice. It’s not too dry but is tart in a good way. This is another one for people who aren’t big cocktail … Continue reading

The Pegu Club Cocktail* * If I had to describe this cocktail in one word, it would be lovely. It’s refreshing and balanced. It’s grapefruity (one of those weird things as it has no grapefruit in it) and would be … Continue reading

Before Christmas, Maxanne and I hatched a plan to make presents rather than buy them. We make chilli jam, granola, chocolate truffles, peanut brittle, vinegars and pomegranate vodka. It’s the vodka that concerns me here, I have some left over … Continue reading
