Jeremy Oertel’s ode to the classic novel of the same title.
Created in Trinidad, this Demerara rum-based, bitters-topped drink gets its name from a famous cricket field in the country’s capital, Port of Spain.
Will Elliott pairs bitter gentian liqueurs Avèze and Salers with lemon juice, lemon cordial and St-Germain.
Simply sherry, sugar and citrus, shaken and poured over crushed ice.
A good example of how powerful a garnish can be, with this cocktail the onion transforms a bitters-less Martini into an entirely new drink: the Gibson.
When Englishman James Pimm invented this crisp cooler in the mid-19th century, surely he could not have imagined that it would become the official cocktail of Wimbledon.
A Strega-spiked nod to neo-Gothic architecture.
If you take the American side of the story, this drink evolved from the “The Great Tom Collins Hoax” of 1874.
This Californian buck-like cooler has long been the most popular cocktail at San Francisco's Cantina.
