Got you thinking Purple – Purple Haze Extreme and and Purple Rain are named after 60’s and 80’s songs respectively. Great fun for a themed or late night party both of these long drinks pack a punch. Keep the drivers out of the way of these bad boys or have designated drivers!

The creamier version of the Pink Lady for this recipe is thought to have been around since the 1920’s. As most older drinks there are many versions this one uses both cream and an egg white. Once named on Esquire’s list of the ten worst cocktails, most likely due to it’s girly nature and color, it is still a great drink that has more kick then one would think.
Basically a gin martini with Crème de Cassis, currant flavor, the Parisian’s flavor is a little sweeter and fruitier. Great if you need something to take the edge off the gin taste.
Orange Cardamon Gin And Tonic is a great winter drink for Gin lovers. The Root liqueur gives it a botanical spicy flavor like root beer and the Dry Fly Gin has just the right balance, not too much juniper, to blend it all together. Adding notes of orange citrus makes it the perfect winter drink. Experiment with the Gins if you prefer a London Dry style but we really liked the smoothness of this drink. It could convert a few non-Gin drinkers!
The Orange Buck is a great drink, tart and refreshing. We made this one with fresh squeezed organic juice to it was very tart. If you want more sweetness you can add 1/2 oz of simple syrup for a slightly sweeter taste.
Amazing cocktail with a very complex flavor profile. The smokey sSotch rinse really elevates this cocktail.

Nudist Colony is a drink with a lot of botanical overtones with the Chartreuse and Dubonnet. A great after dinner drink it has a lot of body and taste and is great for sipping. Very layered with each of the liquors bringing out their own character one at a time.
Another in the family of Ice Teas this one is just as strong as its cousin the LIIT. Have fun, but don’t blow your head off!

Published in Savoy Cocktail book from the 1930’s this cocktail will make you rethink how you feel about Gin if you don’t think you like it. Refreshing and tasty this cocktail owes it terrible name to the reason it is not more popular. Similar to Between the Sheets it is a cocktail you can play with and make your own. Any London Dry Gin will work and you can add bitters (lemon or orange) and different kinds of citrus juices or change their ratio.
