Celebrating the 200th cocktail… part 1

Started studying about mixology and experimenting with making cocktails about a year and a half back. Today, I made the 200th cocktail. Made a catalog of all those drinks I have made till date. Could not fit everything in one picture. So, here is the first batch of hundred cocktails… all arranged alphabetically…

From the bartender’s corner – Fall Cocktail

This is not from any recipe. I had been thinking of how to make a layered cocktail to mimic the fall colors. I had to go thru quite some alcohol and failed experiments before I could get to a set of alcohol and liqueurs that had the right viscosity and color and also were compatible with each other to make a good cocktail.

Finally settled with some vodka, a little chartreuse and orange juice and a few drops of grenadine to give the red color, a few drops of Aperol to get the orange and just one drop of Jagermeister for some brown color to float in the drink as it started dispersing.
