Shake up Mother's Day this year, with a make at home Celebratory Cocktail...

Conrad London St James Cocktail Mixology Class.jpg

As Mother's Day approaches this Sunday, most of us are having to reassess how to celebrate without leaving the confines of our homes. Whether you surprise your mum with this delicious sparkling treat or enjoy the tasty tipple over a family facetime,  Conrad London St. James has shared this signature cocktail recipe to help you say thank you without breaking quarantine. This delicious spring drink has been masterfully created by the hotel's talented mixologist and promises a treat for the eyes and the taste buds.  

If you're unable to get hold of the below then try some creative swaps, such as Orange rather than Kumquat Liqueur. (The small calamondin fruits are actually a hybrid of kumquat and mandarin orange, featuring a fragrant skin and sour fruit) Or try using Prosecco instead of Rose Champagne  with some fresh pink fruit for colour!  Cheers and enjoy;


Ingredients:

  • 30ml Renaissance Rose Vodka

  • 10ml Fortunella Kumquat Liqueur

  • 10ml Lime Juice

  • 100ml Pommery Rose Champagne

  • Garnish With Orange peel 

Method:

  • Mix all the ingredients in a shaker in the following order: 10ml Lime Juice, 10ml Fortunella Kumquat Liqueur, 30ml Renaissance Rose Vodka   (a little bartenders tip, always start with the least expensive ingredient, in case you make a mistake, you damage the waste) 

  • Add plenty of ice cubes (the more ice the better you can control dilution) and shake vigorously. 

  • Double strain into a pre-chilled champagne glass, and gently top it up with Pommery Rose Brut Champagne

  • Garnish with Orange peel 

  • Ta Dah...Serve it to your Mum!
