As promised, we made another low(ish) alcohol drink this week for #MasterofCocktails that’s fantastic in its own right. This one’s called The Adonis and it’s a real flavour-packed treat! It’s…
An unbelievably simple recipe today, but genuinely one of my all-time favourites. That’s right – today we’re making an Amaretto Sour. Now before we get started, there are, of course,…
Back in December I visited the Worship Street Whistling Shop for a very special, two hour long ‘multi-sensory experience’: the final Diageo Whisky Theatre of the year. The project is…

For this week’s #MasterofCocktails we’re making ‘fluffy ruffs’! Whilst leafing through The Savoy Cocktail Book, I came across the Fluffy Ruffles Cocktail. Now, as you’ll no doubt know, Fluffy Ruffs…
Whisky cocktails don’t get much more classic than the Blood and Sand, so it was inevitable that it would feature on #MasterofCocktails sooner or later. This version has, however, been…
Who doesn’t like a bit of Hanky Panky? This week we made a classic gin-based cocktail, and if you’re yet to try this particular one, then you’re in for a…
Last week, we gave you the choice between a classic summer cocktail or something more wintery and, overwhelmingly, the good people of twitter voted for a winter #MasterofCocktails option. So,…
As mentioned last week, this one is going to be super-simple and super-high-quality. We’re making the perfect Manhattan, something not entered into lightly, of course, as it’s a cocktail that’s…
It’s been a pretty epic week for cocktails between the The World’s 50 Best Bars 2013 awards, where Artesian at the Langham Hotel scooped the big prize and Nightjar was…
This week on #MasterofCocktails we made the Martinez – or rather, the more modern, gin-heavy version of the Martinez. We will, however, do the old-school, original version another time, as…
