Recently I got the opportunity to create four festive cocktails for the ‘End-Of-Year’-edition of Belgium’s leading culinary magazine ‘Culinaire Ambiance‘! It was a huge honor to do so, and dang, seeing your drinks in print, especially if it’s 4 full pages, gives quite the goosebumps!
For the occasion I was asked to work with the Blind Tiger Gin, Mary White Vodka and Supasawa Acid blend, all of Deluxe Distillery.
Deluxe Distillery is a company I hold very dearly to my heart. Not only have their gins been a staple in my homebar for a solid 4 years now, they were also the first to believe in my bartending abilities and asked me to do, back in April 2017.
Without further ado, here are the 4 recipes I created:
HOLIDAY NEGRONI

1. Stir all in a mixing glass with plenty of ice
2. Strain over fresh ice
3. Garnish with a dehydrated orange wheel
SIBERIAN TIGER

3. Garnish with rosemary
Mocktail: SIBERIAN SAWA

Cheers and have fantastic Holidays!
