Classico
Bloody Mary
KETEL ONE CITROEN VODKA | TOMATO JUICE | SPICECure a hangover? It would give you a hangover just listening to the disputes over this one’s origin (Red Snapper? Paris? New York?). Don’t argue, just drink it (responsibly)…
Cosmopolitan
KETEL ONE CITROEN VODKA | COINTREAU | CRANBERRY | LIMECarrie Bradshaw and Co. have a lot to answer for. Cosmos being one…
Daiquiri
EL DORADO 3YO WHITE RUM | LIME | DEMERARA SUGARA favourite of Hemingway and JFK…is that good enough testimonial for you?
Espresso Martini
KETEL ONE VODKA | MR BLACK COFFEE | LIQUEUR VANILLA | ESPRESSOThe famous “drink to keep you up and f…” Order one for yourself and complete the sentence.
Bramble
TANQUERAY NO. TEN | CREME DE MURE | LEMONGin and berries make this 80’s classic burst to life.
Mai Tai
APPLETON SIGNATURE RUM | COINTREAU | ORGEAT | LIME | ANGOSTURA BITTERS“Mai tai, roa ae!” (“Out of this world”), says it all really. Thank you Trader Vic!
MANHATTAN
BULLEIT BOURBON | ANTICA FORMULA | BITTERS“Like buying a tailored suit”…“a go-to cocktail that marks him out as a person of taste”…“it’s classy, complex, and it’s got a great history – a great drink”… from one paragraph, guess it must ok?
MARGARITA
HERRADURA PLATA TEQUILA | COINTREAU | LIMEWas it a Mexican camarero, a Cuban cantinero or an American bartender that created this classic cocktail? Who knows? Who cares? This drink speaks for itself!
MARTINI
TANQUERAY NO. TEN GIN OR CIROC VODKA | NOILLY PRAT ORIGINAL DRY VERMOUTHServed with a twist or with olives, a Martini is sophisticated and yet minimalist, the essence of style and glamour.
NEGRONI
TANQUERAY NO. TEN GIN | CAMPARI | ANTICA FORMULAThe pre-dinner drink in Italy and it’s all down to Count Camillo Negroni’s need for an even stiffer drink. “The bitters are excellent for your liver, the gin is bad for you. They balance each other.” says Orson Welles.
OLD FASHIONED
BULLEIT BOURBON | BROWN SUGAR | BITTERS | ORANGEPossibly the first drink on record to be named a “cocktail” and still tastes just as good today.
PORNSTAR MARTINI
CARIEL VANILLA VODKA | PASSION FRUIT | LEMON | PINEAPPLE | CHAMPAGNEAlready a classic, just so slightly notorious and a firm favourite here; naughty but ever so nice and a tad luxurious too. You haven’t had a Pornstar Martini until you’ve had Rosso Pornstar Martini!
CHAMPAGNE COCKTAIL
HENNESSY VS COGNAC | ANGOSTURA BITTERS | CHAMPAGNE | BROWN SUGAROne from the original cocktail books. This classic is the utmost of elegance.
BELLINI
CREME DE PECHE | PROSECCO | PEACHStraight from the bars of Venice, this classic fits in here just peachy. This favourite is also available in strawberry and raspberry.
APEROL SPRITZ
APEROL | SODA | PROSECCOAt the height of its popularity, this classic is bursting with orange flavours.
KIR ROYALE
CHAMPAGNE | CREME DE CASSISLegend has it we have a gun-toting cleric Felix Kir to thank for saving this! A drink worth taking up arms for.
