One of Rose on my blog :) This interesting recipe is splendiferous [wtf???!!!] chance to use one of my fovorite liqueur – Parfait Amour.

English Rose

50 ml gin
20 ml dry vermouth
15 ml Parfait Amour
7.5 ml lemon juice
1 dash grenadine syrup
Shake all ingredients with ice and strain in to a cocktail glass. Garnish with a maraschino cherry.

This cocktail has so dry and eccentric taste. Real English Rose, I think!

Grand Marnier is unique old European liqueur based on best oranges and cognac. Grand Marnier is pure pleasure in a glass and I love this liquor in a cocktails. This interesting cocktail with simple but very inviting composition was found on Esquire Drink Database. I read very interesting story about this cocktail by Wondrich :)

Batiste Cocktail has rich strong and sweet taste. It is gorgeous cocktails! This cocktail is my symbol of La Dolce Vita.

This Dale`s DeGroff creation has strange name and very … actually… perspective composotion :) Worth to try, I think!

209 East Cocktail

60 ml tequila Sauza Hornitos
30 ml Cointreau
15 ml strawberry liqueur
30 ml fresh lime juice
Shake all ingredients with ice and strain into a chilled cocktail glass.

I use tequila Leyenda Del Milagro Reposado (100% de Agave) instead Sauza Hornitos. This cocktail is so good :) … But it is *hidden* strawberry margarita :)

The Pick Me Up Cocktail from my last post impress me. This post is devoted to some variations of Pick Me Up Cocktail which was found on Cocktail DB. All of this pick-me-up contains champagne, it is very interesting on my opinion.

I.b.f. Pick Me Up Cocktail [wtf the i.b.f??? Internationla Bartender Federation???] contains my favorite anti-abuse remedy – french bitter – Fernet-Branca.

I.b.f. Pick Me Up

45 ml brandy
8 ml orange curacao
8 ml Fernet-Branca
champagne
Build in highball glass filled with ice. Garnish with a lemin twist.

The I.b.f. Pick Me Up Cocktail has so dry taste with herbal bitternes of Fernet-Branca. It is interesting cocktail.

Next pick-me-up contains pastis – another great anti-abuse thing. I use Ricard as usualy.

Pick Me Up Hiball

60 ml brandy
8 ml orange curacao
8 ml fresh orange juice
8 ml pastis
champagne
Shake brandy, liqueur and juice with ice and strain into highball glass filled with ice. Fill with champagne and float pastis.

The taste of Pick Me Up Hiball cocktail is so dry too. It is real buzz :)

The Harry’s Pick Me Up was invented by famous Harry McElhone on 1925.

Harry’s Pick Me Up
