Sinu Metu

Sinu Metu

The Sinu Metu by Joy Richardson is made with Irish whiskey. We don't use that very often we have to admit, but we do have a bottle of Jameson in our cabinets and we decided it was time to put it to use.

Also we realized the colour of the finished cocktail would match our new coasters. We bought them at the Museum of Spirits here in Stockholm. It's hard to tell from the photo, but the pattern on the coasters is made up of the molecular structure of alcohol. Quite fitting we thought!

1,5 oz Jameson Irish whiskey
1 oz Lillet Blanc
0,5 oz Cherry Heering
3 dashes wood/barrel bitters
Stir with fresh ice and strain into your most Irish looking glassware.

This recipe we found in Frederic Yarm's book Drink & Tell.

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

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.
