Blackcurrant Liqueur (Crème de cassis)
Recipe by:
nch
The blackcurrants are put directly into high-percentage alcohol straight after picking and then the liqueur is ready to finish being made around Christmastime. Only our most special guests get to taste the liqueur - and then only thimblefuls... pure, as kir (with dry white wine), kir royale (with fizzy wine or champagne) or over vanilla ice cream - heavenly! I can't give exact amounts in the recipe as that all depends on how many fresh blackcurrants you have.
Best Mojito
Recipe by:
Joliecathy
This cocktail is very refreshing. You will especially enjoy it at the end of a hot summer day. As for me, I can drink it even during the winter because I like to have a cocktail after a long day at work. Mojito is my favourite cocktail. It is also possible to use a blender to make this recipe.
Cuban cranberry cocktail
Recipe by:
Bruno
I just returned from Cuba, and to extend the trip a bit, I love trying to recreate some of the dishes and cocktails I had there. Here's an example! Beware, it seems very sweet, but if you drink it in the sun, you will definitely realise it contains alcohol! For a smoother drink, use a blender instead of a cocktail shaker.
