Margarita Perfection

Another delicious Zwack cocktail to add to your repertoire. Sweet, strong, and complex this makes for a great pre-dinner or after-dinner drink.

This cocktail tastes like summer and sunshine in a glass.

Bright, refreshing, low-alcohol, flavorful, and easy!

Spiced Tea popular in India and all over the Middle East

I’ve said it before and I will say it again, I think Sprtiz’s are my favorite summer cocktail.

The Spanish version of a Gin & Tonic, is lighter, has more aromatics, herbs, and fun bits in it, and is perfect alongside some tapas any evening.

Here are 4 variations of the Pimm’s Cup, each has its own merits: super easy, more herbal and complex, simple and fruity, and the batch version! It’s like a choose your own adventure.

Another lovely approach to a Zwack cocktail. This time a Rye forward but well-balanced cocktail with orgeat and lime juice.

Zwack is one of my favorite discoveries through this process of exploring recipes from around the world. It is an herbal bitter liquor that adds complexity to any cocktail it finds itself in.

I love a good creamy cocktail. Coconut milk adds just enough creaminess and tropical flavor to work well with the serious kick of cachaça and lime. Try these! You won’t regret it.

Our friend brought a new liqueur into our lives this year from her recent visit to Mexico. It is a Mayan honey and anise liqueur called Xtabentun. We immediately began researching cocktail ideas and found a pretty delicious one in the Mayan Margarita. We made a few tweaks and think this version is perfectly sweet, strong, and sour.

‘Spritz’ has remained a favorite for summertime cocktails and bubbly aperitifs.

A clean drinking, on the sweeter side, aperitif.

A few of my favorite cocktails have french origins. Simple, refreshing, and elegant. 

When I think Monaco, I think glitz, glamor, caviar, and champagne. And of course Daniel Ricciardo flying face first into the Red Bull pool after pulling off a redemptive win on the streets of Monte Carlo. 

As soon as I opened the fresh bag of Sichuan peppercorns I knew we needed to create a cocktail to put them in. They were tart, spicy, floral, and something completely unknown.

Tart, punchy, just enough sweet and a great complement to an F1 Grand Prix.

"This ritual of tomar un vermut—literally, “taking a vermouth”—is to Spain what grabbing an espresso is to Italy. It’s a social activity undertaken pretty much whenever over the course of daylight hours, preferably with a friend or three.

Traditional Korean tea, spiked with Rye 

Lime, Mint, Sparkly... what's not to love?

Oooh another favorite cocktail! This is a great time in the F1 Calendar when so many favorites come up all in a row! 

Apparently the Singapore Sling is a hotly debated cocktail with a hundred origin stories and no agreement on what the original recipe is nor what the best modern version is. However the debate turns out, I land on the side of delicious. 

"A Spritz is always effervescent."

Zwack Unicum is a Hungarian liqueur known for its sweet-bitterness and herbal notes. Great in a cocktail!

This is my favorite go-to Sangria recipe because it is simple, quick, and it still tastes like the base wine and the tangy fruit it is composed of.

Caipirinhas are a tart, punchy drink made with cachaca, limes, and a little sparkle. Perfect for hot days and are most at home on a beach somewhere.

Margaritas are the cure to many ailments. And they go great with tacos.
