As promised, we are getting back on-board with bringing you a new drink of the day daily! Sorry for our short absence. We are now ready to get moving on this once again. This is one of those older shooter / cocktail drinks that seems to be made several different ways. One thing that doesn’t […]
Here’s another signature cocktail I made for the 2013 Los Angeles International Expo. This is a gin based drink, bringing the flavor of fresh mint and cucumber in to highlight the liquor’s attributes. Plus, I gave it a hint of citrus to put it all together. The aroma and color alone will bring out the […]
Here’s a drink for you that is more complicated than most I show you one here for the Drink of the Day. But, when you are able to successfully make it, this cocktail will satisfy you more than most. This mixed drink dates back to pre-prohibition, back in the day where it was common to […]
Here is a Pre-Prohibition drink that was surprisingly smooth. Named after Delmonico’s Restaurant, a very popular establishment that was opened from 1830 until Prohibition force the family to shut it’s doors in 1923. Unlike the restaurant. this cocktail has stood the test of time. An enjoyable sipping beverage for any occasion. Delmonico 1 oz. Gin […]

This is a nice combination of gin and rum with a taste of melon, coffee, hazelnut, and rounded out with pineapple. This will be one that you will never get enough of. Amazing how coffee liqueur compliments the other flavors. In fact, it gives you a boldness that seems to be missing in other fruit […]
To continue to the St. Patrick’s Day countdown, I want to introduce a very minty and very green cocktail; a perfect drink for this time of year. This is St. Patrick’s Day Eve, so I wanted to give you something that would give you the right color. And with the actual holiday happening on Sunday, […]
This cocktail won a competition being held by Booth’s Gin back in 1933. Arthur Tarling, a British bartender, came up with this very smooth and enjoyable gin cocktail. Grand Marnier, being another key ingredient in this drink, has taken this drink in to promote their liqueur. I attempted to do a little modernization to this […]
I am going to introduce you to a drink who’s origin dates back to the 1850s. Many of us today know of the Sloe Gin Fizz because it seems to be common for those who like a sweet cocktail. This original fizz drink does not have that overbearing sweetness, using the flavor of a good […]
Sandy Duncan, probably the best known actor to play Peter Pan (at least in my era), ended her run in Los Angeles on this day in 1982. She had played him for 956 appearances, not missing one show! Cathy Rigby has been doing the part ever since her deparure from this broadway hit. I felt that was impressive […]
