Grenadine for Raspberry Syrup Davis Cocktail is one of the old but surprisingly (for me) not such a popular drink. I have searched and tried so many cocktails when I first started making them at home that it was impossible for me not to try something with such a nice colour. You may come across two main recipes where one […]
Sweet or Sour, It’s All Up To You Another citrus-based drink I love and this one can be sweet or sour by easily adjusting the recipe. Getting closer to warmer weather, refreshing and citrusy drinks take more place in my mind. Lemon Drop was created in the ’70s, described as a type of martini made with vodka. Sweet and Sour […]
Delicious Gin & Tonic with a Market Garnish No matter how complicated the recipe is and how carefully prepared a cocktail is, there is not much that can beat a well prepared Gin & Tonic for me.

Indulging in the Flood of Flavors When it comes to exquisite ingredients for martinis, the berry liqueur Chambord holds a special place in my heart. Its petite and captivating bottle only adds to its allure. Among the various Chambord recipes, there’s one that truly stands out: the Chambord gin cocktail. As a cocktail enthusiast, I adore the brand, its tantalizing […]
Easy recipe with quick tips As a huge coffee lover, it’s no surprise that I decided to try an Espresso Martini before everything else as my first cocktail trial. Before getting my hands-on homemade cocktails, I didn’t know how popular it was. Such a shame that I was also not aware of the different types! I started using the recipes […]
Why it is important to shake accurately? A cocktail is a drink, usually an alcoholic one, made by mixing two or more drinks together, says Cambridge Dictionary. So, can’t we just mix the ingredients and enjoy our cocktails? Do we really need to have a shaker to make our cocktails at home? What is the importance of cocktail shaking? There […]
