I love the color of the drink. Reminds me of a sunset. Tanquerray gin, sweet vermouth, St. Germaine elderflower liqueur and some bitters…

Gin, powdered sugar and champagne…

Gin, dry vermouth, sweet vermouth and triple sec.

I think I was first told about this drink by Jennifer Munroe. It is this Halloween’s special from my bar. It is called Alien Brain Hemorrhage. Bailey’s Irish creme and peach schnapps for the brain coagulation, grenadine for the blood hemorrhage and some blue curaçao to give the ghoulish alien part!!!

Vodka, Campari and Champagne…

Coconut rum, white creme de cacao and lime juice.

Gin, orange bitters, lime juice and some fine granulated sugar…

This can be had as a cocktail or a shooter.
Southern Comfort, grenadine and 7-Up

This is a perfect drink for a cool Fall evening – especially with the bourbon and the tabasco sauce in it.
This is a shooter – so served in a long shot glass. Naturally, one has to pace the consumption properly.
I thought the name was appropriate given that Halloween is approaching us….

Bourbon, lime juice, sugar syrup and a couple of drops of tabasco sauce.

Growing up in India as kids, Tintin was our evergreen comic hero. And there was his friend – Captain Haddock who had a sumptuous appetite for a particular scotch whisky called Loch Lomond!!! The dog Snowy was not above swiping a few licks here and there either!!
Way after the comics, there was a real life brand Loch Lomond scotch whisky that came of being.
This one however is a cocktail with the same name. Sure it has scotch whisky, but it also has blue curaçao, peach schnapps, lemon juice and cranberry juice.
I can visualize Captain Haddock sipping my cocktail and then upon realizing it has fruit juices in it, spitting it out forcefully with that inimitably “PFFFFFFT” fashion 😉
