CLASSIC COCKTAIL CREATIONS: THE COSMOPOLITAN
From the 1930s original recipe to Sex and the City's Carrie Bradshaw, The Cosmopolitan has become synonymous with class and contemporary cocktails. But just how should one make a classic Cosmopolitan? In our latest in Classic Cocktail Creations, Felix carries you (see what I did there) through Dale Degroff's must have drink.
45ml The Glasgow Distillery Co. Vodka
30ml cranberry juice
15ml Cointreau
7.5ml lime juice
Shake all ingredients together in a tin, fine-strain, peel and orange and flame it over the drink before adding to the class. As simple as that!
If you love a Cosmo, why not come along to History of the Sesh: Cocktail Renaissance on the 8th April? We'll look at the period after the dark Disco drinks era to when bartending became slightly more refined again. Tickets in the link down below!

SUMMERHALL DRINKS LAB RECOMMENDS: Glenkinchie Distillery Tour
A few weeks ago, Jamie, Felix, and a couple of friends spent the day travelling to the lowland home of Johnnie Walker to learn all about the production and history of The Edinburgh Malt. Check out what we did in our little video of the trip!
Our experience made us appreciate single malts even more, so our next Whisky & Doughnuts is sure to be bigger and better than ever - grab your ticket at the link below!

From the doughnuts to the door, we think about everything here at the Drinks Lab to make sure folk have the best time with us, from experiencing the spirits to devouring the doughnuts from Considerit Chocolate.

Tiki Facebook
#Throwback to our History of the Sesh: Tiki/Tropical session we held a few weeks ago!
We love these events so much, as it gives us a chance to branch out and explore new areas of drink creation that we don't often get to focus on - as well as learning a thing or two we didn't know before!
For example, did you know that the Mai Tai is named after the Tahitian phrase "mai tai-roa ae!", which means 'out of this world'? It certainly does pack a delicious punch!
We've got our Disco Drinks session on the 4th March, focussing on the history of the (often) misunderstood 70s/80s-craze! Grab your spot now before we sell out! https://buff.ly/3Hn5u2p
