Virtual Cocktail Chatter

]]> Each Thursday, fancy mixologists, cocktail geeks and bartenders gather in a chat room and geek out over cocktails. They create new recipes, try and out-do one another and pretty much drink all night. All in all, it’s a pretty fantastic time.

I know this is a day late, but Kaiser Penguin had the wrap up from last night’s mixology chat, and I’ve been meaning to tell you about it for ages now. What prompted me this time was the winning drink, a Cinnamon Basil Smash, which sounds delightful, and I can’t wait to try it. I’ve just got to go get some basil. And make the cinnamon syrup.

Cinammon Basil Smash

  • 2oz gin
  • 1/2oz lemon juice
  • 3/4oz cinnamon syrup
  • 4-6 decently sized basil leaves
  • ginger beer, to top

Muddle basil with the cinnamon syrup and lemon juice. Fill with crushed ice, add the gin, give it a quick swizzle, and top with ginger beer.

This sounds amazing, and I’m already looking forward to next week when they’re featuring drinks made with Irish Whiskey
