A powerful mix, this cocktail is more likely to fire you into orbit than to reduce you to trying to rake the moon’s reflection out of pond.

The familiar golden egg yellow of advocaat is preferred by many when it is lengthened with soda or tonic and given an added tang of lemon.

This rather ominous-sounding cocktail is actually a gorgeously creamy and richly-flavored concoction that is delicious whatever the weather conditions.

Don’t expect this cocktail to be full of apples! The base is sharp and astringent, while the top is sweet and frothy- no discrimination here, of course!

Creamy and richly flavored with a hint of daring, just like Mexico.
