This is my favourite cocktail of all times to drink and serve, it is true decadence. All it requires is quality ingredients to be a success, of course it works just as well with a quality Australian sparkling as champagne.
Pineapple makes delicious drinks that take very little effort to prepare. Both these drinks are of the non alcoholic variety but by simply adding a little good quality dark or white rum to them you have yourself a tasty intoxicating creation.
4-6 portions (dependent on the size of the pineapple)
The singapore Sling was invented at the famous Raffles Hotel by Ngiam Tong Boon. This
recipe is my favourite mix, which I got from the Savoy Recipe Book, printed in the
1930's. The are many other recipes for Singapore Sling, which many can be found on the web.
One of our favorite pre-dinner drinks, especially in Summer. As one of our friends
says, with all those tomatoes, it should be 'one of your five a day'. Well, we're not
sure whether we agree with him, but they are very easy to make and very tasty.
Limoncello is a famous Italian liqueur which is infused with lemon zest and sweetened
with sugar. The addition of thyme to the recipe adds an underlying depth to this
decadent drink. When ready store the Limoncello in the freezer and serve directly from
there in shot glasses.
Frozen daiquiris prepared from fresh fruit make one of the best cocktails in the
summer months. You can replace the watermelon with your choice of fruit if you like,
strawberries always go down well.
This makes a great savoury sorbet to be served at any part of a meal. I like my Bloody Mary very spicy so add a little tabasco but if you want a milder version just leave the tabasco out.
