Hole in the Cup

Hole in the Cup

Hole in the Cup is the name of this cocktail. And according to its creator Lauren McLaughlin thats how quickly it disappears as it's so good. And yes we need to agree.

Also those two slices of cucumber the drink is shaken with (without being muddled first) add a nice vegetal flavour. It complements the rather sweet pineapple in a good way.

Frozen Margarita

Frozen Margarita

Ah, we completely missed National Margarita Day back in February. We will try to compensate for that today with this delicious frozen Margarita.

Red Viper

We've been reading the book “Tequila & Mezcal” (only in Swedish) by Josephine Sondlo and Madeleine Solo Rapp from cover to cover the last weeks. And there are so many great recipes in this book it was almost difficult to decide what to start with! However, the cocktail on the book's cover is a Red Viper, and this is the one we eventually decided to make first of all: Now our cocktail turned out a little less red compared to the cover version. Probably because we used Carpano Antica Formula swe

Almond Brother

Almond Brother

These are two Almond Brothers by Jason Littrell from bar Death & Co. It's a recipe that combines Mexican tequila with Italian Amaretto in a playful way. But can these two spirits really be brothers? 2 oz reposado tequila 0,25 oz Amaretto 1 teaspoon apricot liqueur 0,75 oz lime juice 0,25 oz orgeat 0,25 oz maple syrup Shake with fresh ice, strain into fancy glasses. Well yes, one could believe so. They work very well together, despite both being quite characteristic on their own. The amount of
