Slingsby Tuxedo
This elegant gin Tuxedo cocktail is created using our London Dry Gin. It's a slightly sweeter take on the classic gin cocktail, with a hint of spice.
- 30ml Slingsby London Dry
- 30ml Dry Vermouth
- 5ml Maraschino Liqueur
- 2 dashes of Angostura Bitters
- 2 dashes of orange bitters
Method: Add all of the ingredients to a mixing glass, stir and strain into a Martini glass. Garnish with a skewered cherry.
Slingsby Espresso Martini
The Espresso Martini cocktail came to be in the 80s when a model walked into a London bar and asked for an alcoholic drink that would ‘wake her up'.
- 30ml Slingsby Pure Grain Vodka
- 20ml Coffee liqueur
- 60ml Cold brew coffee
- 15ml Vanilla syrup
- Pinch of salt
Method: Combine all of the ingredients in a cocktail shaker with cubed ice. Shake vigorously. Strain to remove the ice and then shake again. Lastly, strain into a Martini glass and garnish with coffee beans.
Pastel Perfection
This chic libation tastes floral and delicate on the palate. Our mixologists were inspired by one of 2020’s biggest fashion trends: pastels.
- 30ml Slingsby London Dry
- 15ml elderflower cordial
- 5ml lemon juice
- 3 dashes of Peychaud Bitters
- 2 drops Monin Coconut Syrup
- Soda to top up
Method: Combine all ingredients (other than soda) and shake. Strain through a sieve into a champagne saucer. Top up with the soda and garnish with a lemon peel disc.
