Mexican Flag

Called the Mexican Flag due to its garnish of a green cocktail onion, a white cocktail onion and red cherry on a toothpick. We had no onions or cherries however that did not stop us from making this cocktail and slightly modifying the name, calling it the Mexican Cocktail. An enjoyable cocktail all the same without the garnish.

Shake all the ingredients over ice and pour into cocktail glass. Garnish with green and white cocktail onions and a red cherry across the glass on a toothpick.

Tequila and Dry


A variant of a Scotch and Soda however this uses Tequila and Vermouth. This cocktail has a warm summery glow about it and if you use a spicer ginger ale it adds a bit of a kick. For a more drier drink try using Blanco Tequila and a dry Vermouth instead.  

Tequila and Dry
---------------------------------
makes 1 cocktail

45ml of Tequila
10ml rosso Vermouth
2 dashes orange bitters

Build over cubed ice in a highball. Crown... or top with chilled ginger ale, add more ice, then garnish with an orange wedge and a mint sprig. 


 Have a lovely weekend and stay safe everyone! - JD
