A few months ago Jennifer Erickson @sheepishjen stirred up and posted a Pirate Radio cocktail by Jason Walsh @nycmixology who also himself posted it in his feed even earlier. And now, half a year later this Pirate Radio has found its way to Stockholm, and the snowy weather that was present during this shoot.

An edible orchid is the suggested garnish, however on Swedish latitudes these exotic flowers are rare. What we do have though, in plenty during this time of the year, are tulips. Hence that's what our cocktails are garnished with instead.

The pineapple rum is super delicious. And it smells so nice as soon as you open the bottle. And mixing it with other tasty things such as green Chartreuse, Cocchi and Suze ensures a fabulous outcome. Cheers J&J and thanks for posting!

Rum in Cocktails
Barceló Imperial

Rum in Cocktails

Rum is a versatile spirit. It can be enjoyed both neat and in cocktails. It is a vital ingredient in several classic drinks, as well as in newer cocktail creations. Here are suggestions for three fantastic cocktails, made with Barceló Imperial. It is a rum made in the Dominican Republic, aged for up to ten years on oak casks. The rum tastes of caramel, vanilla, toasted nuts and wood - hence making it an excellent rum for mixing cocktails with. In Sweden Barceló Imperial can be ordered here. DO

Plum & Done
A gin cocktail, with plum syrup and lemon

Plum & Done

On a recent visit to Skåne, in the south of Sweden, we stumbled upon a plum tree with thousand of ripe plums on it. We turned them into syrup, and we put some others in rum, to be used as garnish. The result is a gin sour with taste and color from those plums, we call it Plum & Done! 50 ml gin (we used Skånska Spritfabriken's) 30 ml fresh lemon juice 20 ml plum syrup Shake with fresh ice, strain into a chilled coupe and garnish with a brandied plum pierced by a tiny fork.
