I am really excited to finally get this post out to you all as I've been sitting on it for a few weeks now...whilst merrily experimenting and enjoying the cocktails, obviously. Steeped in history, with a fantastic back story, the origins of MAMPE Berlin can be dated back to the 1830's and a gentleman named… Continue reading MAMPE’S #6 and #7

Unicorn Tears Cocktail
Back in March 2017 Hubby and I received our usual Craft Gin Club delivery. The magazine in this box also just so happened to contain what has become one of my favourite cocktail recipes, Unicorn Tears. Now, I love unicorns, and I most definitely believe them to be real, along with Father Christmas, The Easter Bunny, The… Continue reading Unicorn Tears Cocktail

Behind one of my Boutique-y Gin Advent Calendar doors I was rather excited to find a wee dram of Chocolate Orange Gin. Yup, you heard right, Chocolate Orange Gin. This was calling out to be used in a cocktail. The advent serving suggestion on the "That Boutique-y Gin Company" website was a Brunch Martini, but… Continue reading The Chocolate Orange
Nouaison Negroni
I'm getting into this whole cocktails for Christmas thing, and the richness and warmth of a Negroni definitely makes it a perfect Christmas cocktail. I wasn't the biggest fan of the Negroni, that was until I tried it at the Nouaison Gin launch and was completely won over. Here is their recipe for a perfect… Continue reading Nouaison Negroni

A Glass of Festive Fizz
This weekend I had a night with one of my best ones. She is more of a vodka girl, but does partake in the odd bit of gin too. She even made me the most delicious raspberry infused gin for my birthday! I decided to try my hand at making her a delicious gin cocktail,… Continue reading A Glass of Festive Fizz
