Mezcal is so good! We can’t get enough of that smokiness, that really comes through also in this cocktail. It’s a very sophisticated spirit that everyone definitely should try, especially tequila lovers.

Widow’s Laurel
Let’s focus a bit on glassware, such an essential part of any cocktail. We love going glassware hunting. The charity shops in Stockholm see us frequently, and we can never resist a good glass temptation.
Autumn Sweater
Not sure if it’s really autumn yet, but nevertheless we are making an Autumn Sweater from the Independent in Somerville.
Carbonated Americano
In this post we are also doing a carbonated cocktail, using an iSi siphon to make a classic Americano cocktail go fizzy.
Vieux Carré
Does anybody remember our barrel-aged Vieux Carré? Well, it’s now out of the barrel after spending four weeks inside of it.
Pico Robertson
Supporting different spirit enthusiasts is important to us. While the big brands usually make great products with high quality, we do enjoy finding small batch bottles, spirits with a story, brands with a heart-warming mission and of course local engagement. Drinking Pico Robertson.
Milano Torino
The final addition of club soda makes this a rather low-proof drink that will not affect your senses too much, but definitely warm your heart. It’s simply delicious this Milano Torino cocktail, from The Narrows bar in Brooklyn.
Tivoli
All the fun of a tivoli, but with an adult twist, is somehow captured in this cocktail, not so surprisingly called the Tivoli. It is an adult allegory of all the fun kids have at a tivoli. The drink is based around American bourbon, but also contains Swedish aquavit and some Italian vermouth and Campari.
The Laura
A vibrant cocktail with an amazing color!
Leap Year
The recipe for the Leap Year we found in Robyn M. Feller’s book “The Complete Bartender”. This book with more than 2 000 recipes in it was published 1990. We found it in a bookstore selling used books in Chicago. Couldn’t resist buying it and start recreating some of these 1990s cocktails.
