Recipe for a Manhattan Cocktail
I have some vermouth left from my Negroni cocktail experiments and looked for other cocktail recipes to use it in. I found the best recipe for a Manhattan cocktail, and I have all the ingredients on hand. The Manhattan cocktail is a mix of rye whiskey and sweet vermouth looked perfect. So let’s explore.
How to make a Good Margarita
A few nights ago, we visited friends for a BBQ, and when we arrived, she had tequila shooters standing ready. I am not the biggest fan of tequila. But this was some decent tequila añejo.
KWV 12 year old Brandy
Something different today. A potstill KWV brandy, the KWV 12 year old brandy. A few Saturdays ago, it was cold. The coldest night in 2022, and we turned on the fireplace. I needed something to warm me up from the inside, and John was not in the mood for whisky.
Bisquit & Dubouché VS Cognac
A fun change of pace today, I get to look at the Bisquit & Dubouché VS cognac from the Campari Group. I tried this cognac a few years ago when it was still part of the Distell stable. I used it in an apple cider cognac cocktail then. It was a nice enough cognac for cocktails, but I found it slightly too spicy.
Coconut Panna Cotta with Malibu Rum
In December I started with a series on boozy desserts with my tiramisu with whisky recipe. This recipe proved to be very popular. Also, towards the end of 2017, Backsberg Winery invited a few food and wine bloggers to join in a #MyBacksbergRecipe campaign. The goal was to create the ultimate recipe to pair with the Pinotage Rosé.
