This very simple summer beverage would be a great offering to guests at an outdoor barbecue or other summer party. It’s easy to make, and I’m willing to bet would be delicious with any other kind of fruit, maybe even mandarin oranges… yum!
Ingredients:
1.5 oz. Tanqueray Rangpur Gin
1.5 oz. lemon-lime soda
4 sliced strawberries
crushed ice
Preparation:
Prepare strawberries in […]
There’s something about that long, lean, stretched-hourglass figure that’s often featured in vintage ads for champagne. Tattinger used it (”it” being Grace Kelly) in one of their pieces, and here we have two by Poto Leifi for a company (that may be fictional, because I can’t find any info on it) called Golden Sable.
You might […]
This is pretty cool! Anthony from Art of The Drink has posted a video showing you how to make the drink “Nutty Irishman”.
I really love the way he teaches, but the coolest part is that he’s holding a contest! He asks you a question, and you email him your answers and you’re entered in […]

I really wish I could handle the flavor of Sambuca, but despite my Italian roots, I just can’t handle Anisette. I know, it’s strange, and likely what confirms to anyone suspicious that I’m not 100% Italian. But this drink seems pretty tasty, given the flavors involved: dry gin, anisette, lemon, sugar… Maybe the lemon would […]
Thanks to TheBar.com for the recipe and image for this yummy looking Royal Stretch!
This would be something Marilyn Monroe would’ve definitely served at a party… it matches her dress in Gentleman Prefer Blondes! It’s light (thanks to the club soda, but not so light you don’t know you’re drinking), bubbly, and slightly fruity thanks to […]
