Eye Nut

Eye Nut

We figured this coffee infused rum liqueur would go well with a nutty partner, and then we saw the walnut liqueur in our cupboard… To then balance the sweetness a generous amount of fresh lemon juice was needed. And voila - a coffee, rum and nut sour was created. Why not call it the “Eye Nut”?⁠ ⁠ We think the combination worked really well. Coffee and nuts together is almost like a cookie, and the rum base further enhances the sweet features. However the lemon then really counters the sweetness

We simply love this drink! It has the perfect combination of sweet and bitter, plus its colour is really eye-catching. Using pineapple juice is fun because it creates this thick foam when shaken. No need for egg-whites here for sure.⁠ ⁠ If you haven't tried this cocktail we urge you to do so. It's one of the classics, and the ingredients should be fairly easy to get.⁠ Recipe Ingredients: 1,5 oz dark rum⁠ 0,75 oz Campari⁠ 0,5 oz simple syrup⁠ 1,5 oz fresh pineapple juice⁠ 0,5 oz fresh lime juic

Strawberry Daiquiri (JL Remix)

Strawberry Daiquiri (JL Remix)

With this strawberry daiquiri we bid our last farewell to the summer. It's definitely autumn in Sweden now, but through cocktails you can always travel - both through seasons and through the world.⁠ ⁠ This strawberry daiquiri is elevated to the next level thanks to an addition of sherry. It helps balancing the sweet notes of the cocktail, and it goes really well with strawberries. A tiny pinch of salt and pepper adds a spicy tone to the drink which once again is perfect to counter the sweetness

There's still the possibility to have drinks outside. Summer is slowly leaving Sweden but we're determined to sip every ray of sun we can.⁠ ⁠ And this potent cocktail is perfect for outside sipping. It's interesting how the rather peculiar mix of rum, whisky and Cognac can work so well - because it really does.⁠ Recipe adapted by Dave Kwiatkowski⁠ Ingredients: 1 oz overproof rum⁠ 0,5 oz rye⁠ 0,5 oz Cognac⁠ 0,5 oz grenadine⁠ 0,5 oz fresh lemon juice⁠ Mixing: Shake all ingredients with fresh ic

A Swedish Eye

A Swedish Eye

It's kind of a Negroni riff this one, and it's made using only ingredients produced in Sweden.⁠ ⁠ Yellow Eye [https://www.yelloweyespirits.com/] is a coffee infused rum liqueur. It has a quite noticeable coffee tone which we find so likable. We've always thought coffee flavour goes well in Negronis, so after tasting the Yellow Eye liqueur neat we immediately thought about using it in a Negroni.⁠ ⁠ Spriteriet's [https://spriteriet.se/new-index] rosé vermouth has a bittersweet tone to it that we r

South Sea Dipper

South Sea Dipper

We simply needed to feature our tiki fish mug again, it's been such a long time! And what better drink to fill it with than the South Sea Dipper!?⁠ ⁠ What we particularly like about this drink is its fresh taste of exotic passion fruit, paired with three type of rums. Then it doesn't hurt that we love pineapple juice in drinks, and blending drinks with ice and everything is so cool during hot summer days.⁠ Recipe adapted by Paul McGee Ingredients: 1 oz white rum⁠ 0,5 oz aged rum⁠ 0,5 oz unaged
