On Wednesdays We Make Drinks

On Wednesdays We Make Drinks Join an amateur mixologist on her journey to make (at least) one new cocktail a week! Cheers!

My goal is to make mixology accessible - you don't need expensive ingredients or fancy equipment to make a delicious drink.

March’s menu was an ode to spring with lots of botanicals and fresh herbs! 🍃💐

I kept the menu smaller but with some more complicated recipes, including two with homemade syrups 😋 I love making my own syrup - it’s so easy to add a ton of flavour (just dissolve 1 cup of white sugar in 1 cup of boiling water and simmer with any fruits/herbs/spices of your choice!) For this menu, I made a cucumber syrup and a lemon rosemary syrup - both were surprisingly versatile! ☺️

Highlights were definitely the Lemon Rosemary Old Fashioned, the Rosemary Bramble and the Cucumber Lemonade (super refreshing!). The only one we didn’t try was the Blackberry Sage Spritzer, but I am keen to give that a go soon - I’m always curious about cocktails that involve wine! 🍷

Now that spring has properly sprung, I’m looking forward to warmer days ahead…any guesses on May’s theme? 👀

Very belated post here…but I kicked off the new year with a night at Emily’s all about bubbles! 🥂

This was a great menu to beat the mid-winter blues. I mixed a few classics (French 75, Kir Royale) with some fun combos from my recipe books (Elderbubble, Russian Spring Punch) and they all went down a little too well! 😋

I tried the Aperol Flip years ago and it definitely held up to my memory - it’s a little tart, a little sweet, a little creamy, and a lot of fun. And of course it wouldn’t be a bubbly party without a Negroni Sbagliato (say it with me…with prosecco in it!) 🍾

And as always, Dicky stole the show 🥹
