I was intrigued after binge-watching Jinny’s Kitchen S2. The sweet soju offered a nice counterpoint to the bitterness of beer.

Strawberry Basil Splash @ VERMONT CHEESEMAKERS FESTIVAL 2015. So refreshing!

One of our special touches made with gin, orange liqueur, orange juice and pineapple juice, topped with Champagne

Transforms disappointing vino tinto into something bright, light and refreshing. Just what I need in this heat!

🍉 anything tends to refresh! 💦

BRIEF: “Gin, Orange Liqueur, Champagne, Orange Juice, Pineapple Juice” SOOT’S TAKE: It has lost its sheen.

Happy National Sangria Day. My first homemade sangria: rosy, rosé-based and concocted by a Rosie!

Flora Raspberry & Edible Flowers Liqueur with Hibiscus Tea, Garnished with a Lemon

Poached Pear, Caramel, Curry Leaf, Vanilla Overnight wine, mixed with in-house caramel and curry leaves and with a vanilla bean straw to sip with.

prosecco, Lillet Blanc, lemon twist, Urban Moonshine citrus bitters, over ice. Served in a Hartland Snifter.

Martell VSOP, Honeydew Syrup, Honeydew Juice, Freshly squeezed Lemon Juice, Simple Syrup

The juice of an Israeli grapefruit went into producing a drink reminiscent of the past several days: Smoky & Bittersweet.

A refreshing excuse to dispose of some leftover reposado.

Ginger ale + splash of Suntory Whiskey. $10

“Moutai, Monin Yuzu Puree, Ripe Chilled Lemon Juice, Perrier, Bitter Syrup” My first time trying a cocktail made with Baijiu (a grain-based Chinese liquor).

The remaining pineapple in fridge was ripening to bursting point, so juicer, jigger and pony, shaker full of ice in hand, I mixed it up with a lil’ bit of pineapple, Smirnoff, Cointreau and lime. Great for a lazy weekend.

A 1915 classic: concoction of dry gin, Dom Bénédictine, orange liqueur, cherry brandy, shaken with lime and pineapple juice, a dash of Angostura bitters and Grenadine.

Piedra Azul Tequila, Lime Juice, Grapefruit Juice, Agave Nectar, Squirt. Because we met a kid named Paloma in Puerto Madryn and she wanted to be an exotics vet.

Got this at one of the convenience stores (was it 7-Eleven? Lawson? Family Mart?) and was totally not expecting it to be alcoholic until it hit me several steps past inhaling this.

Had 2 of these to end the day.

BRIEF: “Enjoy this 1915 classic a concoction of dry gin, Dom Bénédictine, orange liqueur, cherry brandy, shaken with pineapple juice, a dash of Angostura bitters and Grenadine. A must-have in Singapore.” SOOT’S TAKE: Medicinal. I don’t know how people fork out 45 bucks for more of this at the Long Bar. 😳
