Negative Space

Maks Pazuniak is the creator of this cool and unusual cocktail. It's called Negative Space and it is a peculiar mix of gentian liqueur, chocolate, sparkling wine and absinthe.

(Not guaranteeing you will actually love it, just that it will make an impression). Now we loved it, this is definitely a cocktail appealing to our taste. There are bitter notes, licorice flavors

It's a brilliant recipe, so delicious. Hands up for you Bri

Off-White Negroni

There are regular Negronis, there are white Negronis, and then there is the Off-White Negroni. We found the recipe for this gem in Greg Henry's book “Savory Cocktails”. Suze is a liqueur made on the roots of the gentian plant. This means it gets a bitter taste, but obviously in a good way. Normally you would be tempted to pair it with something sweet or acidic, but here it is rather paired with only Cocchi Americano and gin. It's not just any gin though, but Old Tom.
