Favourite cocktail?

Jump to: Newest in thread

 

By (user no longer on site) OP     over a year ago

So with me being a bartender for just over 15 years and hopefully opening my own place in the next 5 years. Was just wondering what people's favourite cocktails are?

If your not into cocktails then what your favourite choice of drink on a night out? Also favourite snacks if they was available.

Great choice. Do you like it to be a strong coffee tasting one or sweet and smooth?

Favourite built cocktail - Mojito, but replacing the soda water with prosecco.

Favourite blended cocktail - a pina colada, very simple, golden rum with pineapple juice and coconut cream blended with ice

Favourite shot cocktail- B52 gotta love the layers!

Also a former cocktail bartender by the way.

Yes I do like my rum - one I forgot which most won’t have come across - rum sunrise

I also like vodka and occasionally whisky the one thing I can’t stand is gin! And yes I’ve tried all the flavours and cocktails etc

Slightly off topic but I got rather geekily excitedly that I recently managed to find champagne COUPE glasses, not flutes, not gin glasses proper 60’s/70’s style coupe glasses.

Are champagne cocktails a thing I wonder?

We had one on the menu where I worked which was passoa, advocaat, blackcurrant, orange juice and lemonade. It was called a porn cocktail, definitely one to try if you've not heard of it.

Cant beat a well made french martini

Although i do a nice twist on an espresso martini, half a measure of kahlua and half a cointreau instead of just kahlua as in the usual recipe, gives it an almost chocolatey orange twist if you use vanilla vodka

Same as a usual one but swap triple sec for a blood orange liqueur and use agar agar in place of simple syrup (if you're using simple syrup)... I deliberately wanted this a little sweeter.

If you’re going to mix pernod and bourbon, a sazerac would be the way to go.
