I've been working on recipes from several new products that have been appearing on the market. I recently brought some of these into the Whales Tail at the Hotel Captain Cook. Some samplings took place and good times were had by all.

Here are a few of my own recipes for you to try.

Absinthe Sparkler

Tke a champagne glass and fill it 3/4 full of your favorite spakling. Add 1/2 oz. of Absinthe and a dash of brandy.

It's unique and will tickle your nose with delight

I honor of all of the wonderful projects I've collaborated on with Jessica Bowman, I hereby declare the name of my new cocktail, "The Lush."

Heres The Lush;

1 1/2 oz. Skyy Cherry Infused Vodka
1 oz. Cointreau
1 oz. Orange Juice
1 squeeze of lime.

Combine all ingredients into a shaker filled with ice and shake. Strain into a chilled martini glass and slice a cherry half-way and slide it nto the side of the martini glass.

Cheers to you Jessica and here's to future projects we'll work on.

Salut!
