Tilda's Classic Dark & Stormy

Tilda's Classic Dark & Stormy Cocktail recipe

INGREDIENTS:

50ml Shot of Dark Rum
100ml of Spicy Ginger Beer
25ml Fresh Lime Juice
Garnish: Lime wedge

METHOD:

An absolute favourite here at Love Frankie HQ, a refreshing cocktail sees a trio of dark rum, ginger beer and lime mixed together to create a delectable long drink. Simple, effective and hits the spot perfectly on a busy Friday afternoon in the shop.

No need for any fancy barware for this classic, Grab yourself a tall tumbler and fill it with ice.

Pour in 50ml of Dark Rum, add 25ml of freshly squeeze lime juice and fill to the brim with your favourite spicy ginger beer.   Garnish with a lime wedge and transport yourself to the Caribbean.

TIP: For an extra spicy kick, substitute your dark rum for a spiced rum such as Kraken or Sailor Jerry’s. 

Helen's Twist On The Espresso Martini

Helen's Twist on the Classic Espresso Martini

INGREDIENTS:

50ml Shot of Gin
50ml Shot of Kahlua
Half of shot of Sugar Syrup
25ml of strong espresso coffee
Garnish: Coffee Beans

METHOD:

A simple twist on the iconic cocktail sees the vodka replaced with your favourite Gin for a truly tantalising, espresso fuelled pick me up.

Fill and chill your glass tumbler with ice and leave in the freezer to cool.
Half fill your cocktail shaker with cubed ice and add your Gin, Kahlua (Coffee Liqueur) and sugar syrup, finishing with your strong espresso coffee.

Shake it up for slightly longer than normal, 15 seconds at least.  You’re looking to create the rich, frothy crema for the top of your espresso martini.

Drain and strain into your chilled glass tumbler, garnish with 3 Coffee Beans and Enoy!

TIP: Sugar syrup can be easily made by warming equal amounts of white sugar and water together.  Or if you’re really in a rush, add a spoonful of sugar to your espresso 😉 

Tash's Wicked Long Island Ice Tea

Tash's Wicked Long Island Iced Tea Cocktail

INGREDIENTS:

25ml Shot of vodka
25ml Shot of white rum
25ml Shot of silver tequila

Coke-Cola to top

METHOD:

Enjoy this long cocktail in a hi ball glass filled with lashings of ice.
Adding a shot of each of the vodka, rum, tequila, gin and triple sec, finishing with your simple syrup and freshly squeezed lemon juice.
