Cocktail Recipe: The Paloma

In Cocktails By

The Paloma is a fresh cocktail featuring the award winning VIVIR Tequila Blanco! This delightful cocktail is perfect for a hot summer day. By blending fresh lime juice and pink grapefruit juice it gives an energizing experience, with the sweetness of agave nectar used to control the bitterness of the grapefruit juice. Agave nectar is often used in cocktails as a natural sweetener. It harmonises perfectly with the tequila, as both are agave based products.

For us, the Paloma has a difficulty rating of 4/10. Whilst only having a handful of ingredients and a straightforward process, the agave nectar may be difficult for some to source. You may want to substitute the agave nectar for honey or simple syrup.

Cocktail Recipe: Marble Queen

In Cocktails By

For a refreshing cocktail, we bring you the Marble Queen! This is a blanco tequila based cocktail so we just had to use the award winning VIVIR Tequila Blanco. This cocktail beautifully blends cream of coconut and tequila with the presence of fresh lime juice. The lime juice helps to balance out the sweetness of the cream of coconut whilst giving a citrus kick.

For us, the Marble Queen has a difficulty rating of 4/10. Despite only having three ingredients, we made our own cream of coconut which added an additional few steps to the process. We used Steve the Bartenders recipe, which is really cost effective if you’re making plenty of coconut cocktails!

Cocktail Recipe: The Whiskey Sour

In Cocktails By

We’re bringing you a classic cocktail – The Whiskey Sour, featuring Teeling Small Batch Whiskey! Despite it having the word ‘sour’ in the name, the simple syrup balances the cocktail nicely and prevents it from being too tart. Although The Whiskey Sour has been around for a while, it was first written down in The Bartenders Guide (1862) by Jerry Thomas. It also serves as a base for many of the other sour cocktails.

The Whiskey Sour’s difficulty rating was 6/10 as there’s quite a few steps to do. For example, there is an initial dry shaker (shake without ice) to get the correct egg white texture. However, the remainder of the recipe is fairly straightforward.

Cocktail Recipe: The Teeling Tipperary

In Cocktails By

Our first cocktail we made with Teeling Whiskey is The Teeling Tipperary. Allegedly, The Tipperary cocktail was first featured in the 1917 book, Recipes for Mixed Drinks, written by Hugo R. Ensslin. It’s said that the guest who asked for a drink was humming ‘It’s a Long Way to Tipperary’, which was the song for homesick Irish soldiers in WW1. Therefore, it’s only suiting that this cocktail features Irish whiskey. The Teeling Tipperary is a rich and slightly sweet cocktail, with the green chartreuse bringing some herbal notes.

The Teeling Tipperary’s difficulty rating was 2/10. The process is very simple and the recipe only includes three ingredients.
