Classic White Rum Cocktail - Daiquiri

Daiquiri with White Rum, Lime and Sugar – a Simple Classic. What makes a cocktail classic?  Most of the classic cocktails I’ve learnt to make are really simple with just a few, easy to find ingredients.  The Daiquiri, a white rum cocktail with just three ingredients is a great example.  Simple cocktails though, really work […]

Espresso Martini with Rum

Mocha Espresso Martini with Aluna Coconut Rum. I love a good cocktail.  My perfect tipple is full of flavour with a good alcoholic ‘kick’ but with a clean finish and no nasty aftertaste.  And not too sweet. To achieve all that, it’s vital to start with good base ingredients – and Aluna coconut rum is an […]

Storm Clouds and Thunder

Storm Clouds and Thunder over Kennington: I have probably done more cocktail mixing classes than anyone in London other than a professional mixologist.  I go along and join in various events, shaking away with the best of them to make a whole range of cocktails.  I’ve done special rum cocktail mixing events.  I’m a regular […]
