This drink we made last summer, but for some reason it didn't get posted back then. When we stumbled upon the photos now, a strong urge for summer appeared.⁠ ⁠ Because this is quite a cooling and quenching drink. As it's made with amaro, sherry and sparkling wine it is fairly low-ABV, and if served over ice cubes like we did it is a super refreshing cocktail.⁠ ⁠ Using sherry as a base in cocktails is something we really like. There is a certain dryness to sherry (especially fino) that we enjoy a

Terra Linda

Today we present yet another recipe by bartender superstar Madeleine Solo Rapp. Terra Linda is a smoky and slightly bittersweet cocktail that makes us feel very elegant drinking it.⁠ ⁠ The deep red colour is quite striking, it is indeed a visual cocktail. But we do believe you also drink with your eyes. ⁠ ⁠ We don't use Dubonnet (a kind of fortified wine) very often, but in this drink it shows why it's defending its shelf space in our home bar.⁠ ⁠ Skål!⁠ Terra Linda Recipe by Madeleine Solo Rap

Whenever we see a recipe by Sother Teague [https://www.instagram.com/creativedrunk/] we're always eager to mix it at home. The Waterproof Watch was no exception of course, and wow are we glad we tried it!⁠ ⁠ This grown-up, boozy cocktail is a stunner! This is exactly the kind of cocktails we love a little bit extra. Dark, complex, mysterious, bursting with flavour - but yet so simple to make at home.⁠ ⁠ With “clean” recipes like this one we're always selecting which bottles to use, with extra ca

Groceries for the queen

Two of our favorite ingredients are in this drink, cherry liqueur and amaro Montenegro. Both originate from old recipes, and they have been around for a long time. Hence, there's something rather poetic about mixing them together, and enjoying them combined in this drink.⁣ ⁣ The only downside of these ingredients is that they are not that rich in colour. The cocktail does turn out a bit brown. But don't let that fool you, it is still packed with nice flavour.⁣ Groceries for the queen Recipe b

Akvavit cocktails are awesome. So when Jesse kindly shared his recipe for the Snake Eyes we needed to make it immediately. There’s a lot to like about this cocktail, first the pale golden colour, secondly the four gorgeous ingredients used and thirdly the amazingly tasting end result. Snake Eyes Recipe by Jesse L.

Adriatique

Adriatique

The Adriatique by Jackson Cannon is a really colourful cocktail. It's primarily based around amaro Montenegro, which is one of our favourite amari. It's herbal, sweet and very flavorful, and it's just perfect to use in cocktails. As the weather is hotter than ever in Stockholm we were able to enjoy (and photograph) this drink outdoors. There's something extra enjoyable in being able to sip these Italian products outside. We just imagine this is how they are consumed in Italy all year around. A

Foreign National

Foreign National

This cocktail is smooth as velvet. It's probably the combination of citrus juice, honey and orange flower water that create this shiny texture, making the cocktail look very appetizing. The drink is called Foreign National, and it is composed by Adam Fortuna and Eric Johnson. Always fun to use pisco we think. It's a relatively neutral spirit and because of that it works pretty well with several different mixers. This cocktail is both sour and bitter, and truly enjoyable! Foreign National Reci
