Arcadia

Far from simplistic, this elixir poetically melds the juniper of gin and the anise of Galliano with the balmy flavors of banana and grapefruit to induce sheer contentment.

Rendezvous

There’s no guarantee this engaging drink will encourage any clandestine meetings, but the intriguing play of junipery gin, dry morello-cherry-flavored kirsch, and slightly bitter, orange-scented Campari is sure to spark something.

Jockey Club

Named after the American Jockey Club, this cocktail has come a long way from the basic gin-and-bitters drink.

Parisian Cocktail

Quintessentially French, this cocktail beautifully balances equal amounts of the botanical flavors of gin, sweet black currant liqueur and herbaceous Noilly Prat, the bone-dry French vermouth.

Orchid

An exotic flower in a glass, the Orchid melds juniper and citrus, then decadently perfumes the duo with the subtle almond flavor of crème de noyaux, the vanilla-orange tones of Tuaca, and violet-orange flavors from Parfait Amour.

Vesper Martini

Conjured straight from Ian Fleming’s Casino Royale, this infamous martini was James Bond’s cocktail of choice. It was named after Vesper Lynd, Bond’s doomed double-agent girlfriend. The potent cocktail appropriately calls for Russian Vodka and is served with an orange twist to complement the Lillet, a delicious replacement for vermouth. This drink is served in Bond’s preferred glass, a champagne coupe, and of course, it is shaken, not stirred.

Tasmanian Twister

Despite the crazy title, the balance between the herbal notes of Gin Campari and the sweet vermouth together with fresh juice is pure sophistication.

Kyoto Cocktail

The approach may be stylishly minimal, but when fragrant gin, herbal vermouth and sweet melon liqueur come together, these Oriental and Occidental flavors cavort to infuse this cocktail with aromatic abundance.

Death in the Gulf Stream

Ernest Hemingway, seemingly always in need of a hangover remedy, created this drink. This drink, according to its maker, “tart and bitter – reviving and refreshing”.

Bali Highball

A wave of inspiration can roll in at any time and from the strangest of places. This drink is fragrantly sweetened by guava and pomegranate syrup with the zing of fresh lime juice to keep the sweetness in check.
