Have at it, by Alex Day is a rather funky cocktail found in Death & Co's book. The list of ingredients is long, but there are only quite common products in it. As the cocktail is primarily based on sherry it gets low on ABV, especially as the whole creation is also topped up with club soda.

There was a delicate change in the weather when we poured this cocktail. The cloudy autumn sky suddenly cleared up and the sun made a very welcome appearance. We hurried out on our balcony to do the shooting outside. Do I look thirsty at all by the way?

The Importance of Ice

When it comes to crafting exceptional cocktails, every detail matters—and ice is no exception.

Unlike cloudy ice, clear ice is free of impurities and air bubbles, offering a pristine, glass-like appearance that enhances the visual appeal of any cocktail. But it's not just about looks.
