Cocktails

Mexican Firing Squad Special

Variation – Fire & Ice:

Original:

  • Tequila
  • Lime Juice
  • Grenadine
  • Bitters
  • Ice

Toblerone

Blend this:

  • 1/2 shot Frangelico
  • 1/2 shot Baileys
  • 1/2 shot Kahlua
  • 1/2 shot Creme de Cacao (optional)
  • 1/2 shot honey
  • 1 shot cream
  • Ice

Rim glass with chocolate sauce, pour in the blended mixture and garnish with Toblerone and almonds / chocolate / nougat.

Rhubarb / Gin

This is still experimental.
Top one: ingredients as shown (gin, saffron, rhubarb, tonic, vanilla galliano, white wine).
Bottom one: gin, mint ice, rhubarb ice, lime juice, tonic.

If you know where I can find Rhubarb juice / puree, contact me. It takes me over an hour to prepare from fresh (but I do freeze some in ice cube trays).

Orange Cinnamon Gin

  • 1 shot Tanqueray Rangpur Gin
  • 1 splash Cointreau French Orange Liqueur (optional)
  • Tonic Water
  • Ice

Cut a long thin piece of orange rind, trim the edges to make it a thin long streamer. Twist and place on top of ice.

Add a cinnamon stick. I’m not usually a fan of cosmetic food standards, but in this case, you want a cinnamon stick which is joined to itself so that it functions as a straw.
