Margarita Recipe
The margarita is one of the world’s most beloved cocktails – and for good reason. The balance of sweet, tart and spirit is the perfect refreshment year round, whether it’s a hot summer day or a brisk winter evening.
Daiquiri Recipe
I like to consider the Daiquiri to be the Margarita’s badly behaved brother. They have a lot in common, but this one’s with rum!
Skinny Mojito Recipe
We at A Bar Above love to talk about skinny cocktail recipes that are already “no carb,” low sugar, etc. So we’re taking our “no carb” experimentation to the next level and attempting to omit the sugar from some popular cocktails to see what happens– just in time for summer.
The Classic Mojito Recipe
The Mojito is a minty classic is just the right level of sweetness – as long as you’re not out of mint, of course!
Elderflower Cocktail Recipe
SAGE ADVICE: A GIN ELDERFLOWER COCKTAIL Photo via Unsplash There are lots of delicious elderflower cocktails-- many of which use fresh lemon juice-- but today's recipe from bartender Rob is a beautiful cocktail mixing equal ounces gin and elderflower liqueur with lime...
Sotol & Sage
This is a variation of the Mojito that really makes Sotol shine.
Tom Collins Recipe
While we’ve made several versions of a Collins (my personal favorite being with cranberries), we’ve never actually done a post on a traditional Tom Collins– the shame! This classic cocktail combines gin, fresh lemon juice, simple syrup, and soda water for a refreshing drink.
Fog Cutter Recipe
This gorgeous drink is the work of Tony Kennedy from our Craft Cocktail Club. With summer right around the corner, this is the perfect lounging-in-the-sun drink!
Garden Party
What’s a botanical cocktail without a shrub? This one features Seedlip Garden 108 alongside a tangy cucumber and lemon shrub. It’s like walking through a springtime garden.
Nogroni
This Negroni variation is rich, bitter and flavorful and tastes a LOT like a Negroni. Can you tell what’s missing?
No Ragrets
Originally slated for a ginger beer highball, this non-alcoholic cocktail was just too good on its own!
The Full Embrace
This cocktail is so great you’ll forget that it’s completely alcohol free! Herbal, honeyed and sun infused, it’s as refreshing as it is delicious.
The Caipirinha
The caipirinha is a delicious, powerful and simple cocktail to make. With only 3 ingredients and a little elbow grease, you can be enjoying one of these in minutes!
Southside Recipe
As bright and refreshing as it is classic, the South Side is the perfect cocktail to put our brand new mint plant to the test!
The First Word
We hope everyone is staying healthy and sane during this strange time. We are doing our best over here, but you’ll notice I’m absent from today’s video because, you know, the kids are home!
Excavator
Did you know that Chocolate Stout and Green Chartreuse go unbelievably well together? This cocktail features a beer syrup and is the perfect example of this delicious pairing.
Irish Flip
If you’re looking for a good alternative to green beer, you’ve come to the right place. Today, we’re making an Irish Flip using Guinness and Jameson Irish whiskey for something a little bit Irish.
Shandy
Our first “beer month” recipe is as easy as it gets: we’re making a classic Shandy – and a few other versions too.
White Wine & Berry Sangria
This Sangria is single serving and all about the berries. Aperol gives it some rhubarb flavor and bittery goodness. Bright and delicious!
Pomegranate Gin Fizz
This velvety smooth drink gets its lofty foam from the combination of egg white and ginger beer. It’s dangerously drinkable and delicious!
Can’t be Beet
Fall in love with the this earthy, beet root and black pepper take on a classic egg white sour. It’s red, it’s tingly, and it’s delicious!
Singapore Sling
Seven ingredients team up in the Singapore Sling, a hundred-year-old recipe that creates a deliciously pink cocktail for gin and tiki lovers alike.
Skinny Margarita
Your “Skinny Margarita” might not be so skinny! Here’s a recipe for a truly “skinny” option as well as a few suggestions for making sure your bartender makes what you really want.
“Skinny” Moscow Mule
This Skinny No Carb Moscow Mule is a sugar-free, healthier version of the classic recipe, we all know and love.
Whiskey Highball
It’s about as simple as you can get – a whiskey highball is basically just whiskey and sparkling water. Low carb and still delicious!
Hot Chocolate with Peppermint Schnapps
This is one cocktail you’ve definitely heard of. Here’s how to make the classic Peppermint Schnapps Hot Chocolate, with spiked Whipped Cream on top!
Hot Buttered Rum
A buttered cocktail may seem off-putting to some, but there’s a reason the Hot Buttered Rum cocktail has stood the test of time. It’s delicious and warm (in more ways than one!)
Regent Punch
This is a punch of Kings... and Prince Regents Before King George VI ascended the throne, he was known as George August Frederic and he would periodically step in as "acting" monarch when his father experienced periods of insanity. During that time he was known as...
Bombay Government Punch
This recipe was first documented in 1694 and is kind of like a very unrefined Daiquiri. If you’re looking for something that takes “classic” to a whole new level, this is it!
Fish House Punch
Don’t worry, The Fish House Punch isn’t made with fish! It’s a 1700’s drink that originated in a pre-Revolutionary Men’s Club – and was supposedly also enjoyed by the one and only George Washington.
