• Christmas Connections Cocktail Class: Santa Baby

    Xmas Links have worked together with Cable Bar in Manchesters Norther Quarter to produce 3 Christmas motivated cocktails as well as a mocktail.

    The Santa Baby is a tasty mix of cherries, Ameretto as well as Brandy that tastes similar to Christmas Cake. Cables mixologist Rhys Taylor reveals us how you can recreate the Santa Infant alcoholic drink at home.

    Santa Infant Contents:

    25ml Brandy
    12.5 ml Cherry Brandy
    12.5 ml Amaretto
    25ml Cranberry Juice
    5ml Sugar Syrup,
    Garnish: Cranberry, Cheries

    Method:

    Include all active ingredients into your Boston Glass. Shake well with Ice for aprox 5 secs (tin must have condensation). Include an orange peel to your glass, capture it slightly after that utilize it to layer the glass rim (leave in for added orange flavour). Add ice into your glass after that position your Hawthorne strainer on your Boston Tin as well as stress the mix into the glass. To garnish, include a couple of cranberries on top with a maraschino cherry.

    Bonus Idea:

    Making the garnish a little extra unique, wrap a cherry in an item of orange peel and insert it onto a cocktail stick, after that put a cranberry on either side.
