Recipes entered into the Heering Cherry Christmas Cocktail Competition

Do You Heer What I Heer

A somewhat boozy cocktail with hint of smoke, cherry sweetness and holiday spice. My preferred mezcal is Bozal Tobasiche which has some earthy and chocolaty

Mary´s Jingle

2,5-7,5 ml lime juice depending on the sweetness of your orange juice (and your taste). In addition, the style/perception of the cocktail changes a lot

Snake blood

If a little sweet for some a lemon twist adds a nice brightness

Red Velvet

Cherries & berries with added fizz

Danish Fizz

Smooth creamy gin with delicate cherry finish. Christmas vibes.

Yukon Cornelius

Cornelius's cocktail is warming and smoky thanks to mezcal which serves as the base spirit. Herbal alpine intrigue is introduced with Génépy liqueur

The Vast Bird

Great cocktail after dinner .

Cordial Invitation
