Cocktail of the Day
20th of March 2026
Today is Spring Equinox in the Northern Hemisphere, so we are drinking a Apple Blossom Cocktail.
Neon Knight
Sherry-based, with bittersweet gentian, mezcal, pineapple and orange.
Disco Sour
Peach liqueur sets this gin and pisco-based sour apart.
Disco Mi-To
A wonderfully complex, vodka-based, Negroni riff.
Tomodachi
Aged grappa adds vanilla and dried fruit notes to this sake-infused, vermouth-rounded, complex cocktail with delicate bittersweet depth of flavour.
Maion Fashion
Bittersweet notes make this aged grappa-based old-fashioned suite the after-dinner moment.
Range Life (Tequila Negroni)
This delicious Tequila Negroni is a great example of how the lightly vanilla notes of a reposado work better than a bianco tequila in many cocktails. (I
Hell Diver
The classic mix of gin and red quinquina (see Dubonnet Cocktail No. 1 and Zaza), enhanced by chocolate and dashes of bitters.
Bitter Bee
Honeyed bittersweet and sweet 'n' sourness, lightly fortified with mezcal. Designed as a low-alcohol aperitivo.
20 best Spring cocktails
Spring has sprung – well at least it has here in the northern hemisphere. It's time to rediscover the delights of floral cocktails – think elderflower
Mar del Plata
Not so far removed from a Corpse Reviver No. 2 in style, this gin-laced aperitivo is dry and aromatic with intertwined citrus and herbal notes.
Bouchot
A calvados-based White Negroni. (If you measure in ml rather than ounces, perhaps use a 50ml, 25ml, 25ml recipe.)
Mole Old Fashioned
A corn and rye whisky-based Old-Fashioned with the chocolate and spice notes, as befits the name.
Italian Passion Margarita
A bittersweet, passion fruit Margarita.
Gypsy Rosolio
Gin-laced, floral, rich elderflower balanced by sour and faintly bitter citrus.
Alpine Martini
Genepi's alpine flavours enhance this herbal Martini.
Volare
An unlikely combination of ingredients gives a pleasing, strangely almost floral flavour.
Barracuda No. 2
Lightly bourbon-laced and delicately bittersweet with lemon freshness. The oils from the garnish are an essential toning element.
Marquette
A sweet Martini with almond, cacao and carob notes from crème de noyaux.
Marqueray
Your grenadine could make or break this colourful gin-laced sour.
Golden Banana Flip
A white fluffy head tops this golden coloured, bourbon-laced and banana-flavoured, after-dinner cocktail.
Midnight Fizz
A light, fluffy and refreshing sour that offers invigoration, that's perhaps best appreciated during the witching hours.
Royal Jubilee
A Sidecar made with apple brandy (calvados) in place of brandy (cognac).
Scotch Neg
As the name suggests, this is a tasty, peated whisky-laced riff on a Scotch Negroni that's far more approachable than the ingredients might suggest.
