It's Friday again and we decided to shake up a classic cocktail, as we anyway had some raspberry syrup in our fridge.

The Knickerbocker a la Monsieur dates back to around 1869 (and there is also a Knickerbocker a la Madame out there).

It has always been on our wishlist, to tour the more northern parts of Sweden. Our interest in spirits and cocktails have taken us to many places in Sweden and abroad, but until now not really more north than Uppsala. Well this just changed, as we got the chance to pay a visit to gin producer Norrbottens Destilleri. And this was just the start of five fantastic days, driving between so many beautiful spots. Norrbottens Destilleri Töre, close to Kalix, is where Norrbottens Destilleri produce the
