ESPRESSO MARTINI 

First up we have everyones best pick-me-up, the classic Espresso Martini from our friend Morten @thecocktail.blog. Dick Bradsell revolutionised the cocktail scene in London in the 1980s, when a young supermodel asked for a cocktail that would 'wake-her-up'. Using vodka, sugar, coffee liqueur and a shot of espresso from the coffee machine next to his station, the Espresso Martini was born. Read on to see Morten’s fabulous take on this typically British beauty. 

 

Espresso Martini 

INGREDIENTS

4.5 cl London Dry Gin

2.5 cl Coffee Liqueur

4.5 cl Freshly Brewed Espresso

1 tsp. Rich Sugar Syrup (2:1)

A Pinch of Sea Salt

 

 

BEE'S KNEES

Here we have a drink for the sweet but sour lovers, and another special from @thecocktail.blog. The zingy lemon is balanced harmoniously by the unique flavour of the sweet honey syrup. This drink has no clear origin, but “the bees knees” is a phrase used at a time that means “the best”, and we can’t argue with that.

INGREDIENTS 

6 cl Butterfly Infused Illusionist Dry Gin 

3 cl Fresh Lemon Juice
