Another week another cocktail (I’m going to start posting my Friday night ones the following day as I always forget on Friday’s). The Mojito. A tricky one for me. I’ve made it in the past trying different ratios of sugar, rum and lime juice and never quite got it right. I used Steve the Bartenders YouTube channel for this one, which uses the original recipe from the birth of the mojito at La bodeguita de medio in Cuba. It is a refreshing drink but there is something unsatisfying about it too. The mint overtakes most of the drink making it seem a little like mint, sugary water. However maybe I am a philistine when it comes to Mojitos and I still need to find the recipe that works for me. A few people have suggested flavoured ones which I think may suit me better. Maybe a drink for a blisteringly hot day but in cloudy Manchester it doesn’t quite hit the spot. #cocktailoftheweek #cocktailhour #mojitos🍹 #amateurcocktailmaker #fridayfeeling https://www.instagram.com/p/CCx6DYBp2pO79dDQ3hitiN_Ot2IacTEhoDMCrU0/?igshid=1u9hqvi3wynl9

Thanks to 🍸 @gccocktaillove • • • • • So today, 20th May 2020, we were to fulfil a many years long bucket list moment by heading to Modena, Italy and dine at the world famous 3 Michelin Star Osteria Francescana by @massimobottura 😩 and suffice to say we are utterly devastated we couldn’t be there! However, instead, the #husbandphotographer is cooking a home made Italian meal (including a lemon tart) and I’m making the Negronis! Fingers crossed for 2021! . .

I’m the bustle of the weekend I completely forgot to post my cocktail of the week from Friday. So here goes! The Manhattan. The one that changed everything. The father of the Martinez and grandfather of the Martini. The founder of all french-Italian cocktails. Gary Regan reckons it is the finest cocktail on earth and I’m actually inclined to agree. Certainly my favourite so far! The first time I have used Angostura Bitters but I’m not so fancy yet as to own cocktail sticks (I must get some as I missed the maraschino cherry garnish). There’s something about this cocktail that is very warming, almost honey like. They go down far too easily and for some reason remind me of Mad Men or weird back rooms with red light. #themanhattan #cocktailhour #cocktailoftheweek #cocktailsoftheweekend #amateurcocktailmaker #needagarnish https://www.instagram.com/p/CCQS8gQJtdBv0BjgTTFP9-SgcJvTThlRsEVkCk0/?igshid=14kr287qdxiv5
