Wishing you all a very merry Christmas.
Apple Pie Moscow Mule
A classic cocktail, given a festive twist by using our own vodka infused with apple and cinnamon.

1 part Organic cloudy apple juice
1 part vodka infused with apples and cinnamon
1 part Organic ginger beer
Glass full of ice
Organic apple from the orchard at Daylesford for decoration.
Mix together all ingredients and serve in a traditional copper mug.
Kir Royal with Pomegranate and Homemade Rosemary Syrup
Ideal as a light aperitif.

3 parts Champagne
Teaspoon of homemade rosemary syrup
Mix and serve in a champagne glass.
Salted Caramel White Russian
An indulgent after dinner drink to enjoy by the fire.

50ml Salted caramel vodka
35ml Irish cream (instead of baileys)
35ml Amaretto
50ml Cream
Pour in a tumbler.

Chestnut Whisky Sour
Ideal as an aperitif, our whisky sour is given a festive twist by the addition of chestnut cream, which can be found at many specialist grocers. We use a single malt whiskey for a cleaner taste.
Ingredients:
50ml whisky – not a peaty one – single malt or blended
25ml lemon juice
10ml simple sugar syrup
Teaspoon chestnut cream
Ice cubes
Mix all ingredients together in a cocktail shaker and shake vigorously.
Pour over ice.
Serve in a classic tumbler.
