You'll need to add an espresso to make an espresso martini and a few coffee beans on top to perfect the look Thanks there are instructions on the Kahula bottle but I just shook them together I shall add coffee. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mathematics Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 I worked in a cocktail bar as a youngster. Brandy Alexander is the only cocktail worth considering. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
senorsoupe Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 Don't normally drink cocktails, however I do like a good Mojito on a hot day or when on holidays. Otherwise a good Manhattan is hard to beat in my eyes., especially when a really good rye whiskey is used. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tongue_tied_danny Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 It's a well known fact that most popular cocktails were invented by Harry MacElhone, the son of a Dundee jute worker, who worked at the Ritz Hotel before opening Harry's Bar in Paris. Has any city ever extended its cultural reach as far and wide as Dundee has? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Went there back in 2004 and had two rounds. Quite nice but the bill had me crying. In fact I've still got it somewhere. It's a bit of a quirk of drinking establishments round the world really, that any loose association with Ernest Hemingway results in Highwayman prices. Have to respect the man, must have been a colossal pisshead and really lived it up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CountyFan Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 I've been to Harry's Bar in Rome, I presume they're all the same company. It was class. Big fan of a whisky sour, a white Russian (go to Lebowskis for these) and a bloody Mary. Best cocktail place in scotland I've been is Panda and Sons in Edinburgh. It's a brilliant bar but quite dear. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
