Bacchus Classic Collection
Before Dinner Cocktails
Negroni 18
Back in 1919 Count Camillo Negroni gave his favourite cocktail, the Americano, an extra kick by substituting the soda water for gin.
The Negroni is a tribute to the original definition of a cocktail: spirit, sweet, sour and bitter, the ultimate balance of flavours to stimulate all senses and quench all thirsts.
Manhattan 19
The Manhattan predates other vermouth greats like the Martini, the Rob Roy and the Bobby Burns. It is the king of vermouth drinks.
We like a "perfect" Manhattan which refers not to the quality of the drink (though we do love this version), but to the equal amounts of sweet and dry vermouth used to make it.
Vesper 19
‘A dry martini,’ Bond said. ‘Three measures of Gordon’s, one of vodka, and a half measure of Lillet.
Shake well until it’s ice cold, then add a large thin slice of lemon peel. Got it?’
‘Gosh, that’s certainly a drink.’ – Casino Royale. - Ian Fleming
Kir 18
Kir is a French cocktail made with a measure of crème de cassis topped up with white wine.
Originally called blanc-cassis, it is now named after Félix Kir, the then mayor of Dijon in Burgundy, who popularized the drink by offering it at receptions to visiting delegations.
Besides treating his international guests well, he was also promoting two economic products of the region.
French 75 22
The historians of tippling are seldom able to provide precise origins for the most popular drinks and there’s no better cocktail with which to prove this than the mighty French 75,
a mixture of gin—or is it cognac?—with lemon, sugar, ice and Champagne.
Refreshing, delightful and wickedly intoxicating, it’s a concoction every bartender must know and every drinker cherish.
All Day Cocktails
Southside 19
Gin’s version of a mojito, there are three different stories on where this drink came from.
The most reliable is that it was first made at the Southside Sportsmen’s Club in Long Island as the perfect sweet, refreshing, minty antidote
following a game of sport.
Cosmopolitan 20
The cosmo was popularized among young women by its frequent mention on the television program Sex and the City, where Sarah Jessica Parker's character,
commonly ordered the drink when out with her girlfriends. The film adaptation made a reference to its popularity but when Miranda asks why they stopped drinking them,
Carrie simply replies "because everyone else started."
Singapore Sling 19
The Singapore Sling was created at Raffles Hotel at the turn-of-the-century by Hainanese-Chinese bartender, Mr. Ngiam Tong Boon.
Originally, the Singapore Sling was meant as a woman's drink, hence the attractive pink colour.
Today, it is very definitely a drink enjoyed by all, without which any visit to Raffles Hotel is incomplete.
Bramble 19
The Bramble is a cocktail created by Dick Bradsell in 1980s London, England. Best described as a spring cocktail, the Bramble brings together
dry gin, lemon juice, sugar syrup and crème de mûre.
Margarita 22
The first known publication of a margarita recipe was in the December 1953 issue of Esquire, (when it was cocktail of the month) with a recipe calling for an ounce of tequila,
a dash of triple sec and the juice of half a lime or lemon. Margarita is Spanish for Daisy.
Caipirinha 19
The word caipirinha means ‘little countryside drink’ in Portuguese. Although there’s no definitive version of how the cocktail was invented, its story is bound up with that of cachaça,
the spirit that Brazilians drink a staggering 200 million litres of every year. .It seems likely that the caipirinha evolved as workers on Brazil’s sugar cane
plantations looked for a palatable way to drink the cachaça they were helping to produce.
Aviation 19
Created by Hugo Ensslin, head bartender at the Hotel Wallick in New York, in the early twentieth century. Ensslin’s recipe calls for 1½ oz. gin, ¾ oz. lemon juice,
2 dashes maraschino liqueur, and 2 dashes crème de violette, a violet liqueur which gives the cocktail a pale purple colour.
Casino 19
The Casino is a very gin-forward drink that despite its miniscule amount of lemon and maraschino is extremely nice and not overkill.
The gin sweetness is just enough to balance out the tart lemon, giving the classic sweet/sour combination that doesn’t dominate
the base spirit like in so many other cocktails.
Clover Club 18
A cocktail consisting of Gin, Lemon Juice, Raspberry Syrup and egg white, it is a drink that pre-dates Prohibition and is named for the Philadelphia men’s club of the same name,
which met in the Bellevue-Stratford hotel - The club itself dates to 1896, and lasted until the 1920s.
Pisco Sour 19
Peru’s signature drink, the famous Pisco Sour has a taste quite unlike any other.
It’s a curious mix of sharp tang and sweet, and its texture changes from cloudlike foam to icy cold in the time it takes for the liquid to break
through its wall of egg white.
French Martini 18
With the flavours of pineapple and raspberry, the French Martini is a stunning drink, with fruity flavours that appeal to many palates,
especially those who are not particularly fond of alcohol.
Sloe Gin Fizz 21
The best-known cocktail in the fizz family, a gin fizz contains gin, lemon juice, and sugar, which are shaken with ice, poured into a tumbler and topped with carbonated water.
The drink is similar to a Tom Collins, with the distinction being a Tom Collins historically uses Old Tom Gin, a slightly sweeter pre-cursor to London Dry Gin,
Mai Tai 20
The Classic Mai Tai is aged Jamaican Rum, Orgeat Syrup, Triple Sec, and fresh Lime Juice, served over crushed ice and garnished with cherry.
Synonymous with Tiki culture both past and present, it featured prominently in the Elvis Presley film Blue Hawaii. The Tahitian word for good,
the Mai Tai was created by Trader Vic in 1944 at the eponymous restaurant, Trader Vic’s, in California.
Moscow Mule 19
Moscow Mule is made with high-quality vodka, a spicy ginger beer, and lime juice, usually served in a copper mug.
The cocktail became popular during the vodka craze in the United States, during the 1950s and refers to the popular knowledge of vodka as Russian liquor.
Mint Julep 15
A bourbon-based cocktail, the julep is associated with the American South and the cuisine of the Southern United States in general, and the Kentucky Derby in particular.
The mint julep has been promoted by Churchill Downs racetrack in association with the Kentucky Derby since 1938 and each year almost 120,000 juleps are
served at Churchill Downs over the two-day period of the Kentucky Oaks and the Kentucky Derby
Sea Breeze 15
Following the classic cocktail principle of balancing strong alcohol with weak fruit juice and sweet with sour, the Sea Breeze is a refreshing mix of vodka, cranberry and grapefruit.
After Dinner Cocktails
Espresso Martini 20
Bartending guru Dick Bradsell created the drink—originally called The Pharmaceutical Stimulant—at Fred’s Club in the late 1980s.
This drink’s unlikely longevity isn’t just a product of being embraced by the cocktail community, but a symptom of Australia’s ongoing love affair with espresso and
its café culture—one of the first to emerge outside of Europe.
Sazerac 18
Created around 1840 the Sazerac Cocktail, made with Sazerac French brandy and Peychaud's Bitters, was immensely popular,
and became the first "branded" cocktail. In 1873, the recipe for the Sazerac Cocktail was altered to replace the French brandy with American
Rye whiskey, and a dash of absinthe was added.
Dark and Stormy 19
A Dark and Stormy cocktail will only ever call for one rum: Goslings Black Seal.
Adding ginger beer, lime and bitters seems the most respect we can give this delicious Bermudan beverage.
This will be a refreshing substitute for mojito-drinkers.
Rusty Nail 20
Made by mixing Drambuie and Scotch whisky, a Rusty Nail can be served in an old-fashioned glass on the rocks, neat, or up in a stemmed glass.
It is most commonly served over ice. A Rusty Nail served without ice is sometimes called a Straight up Nail.
Godfather 20
Disaronno, a brand of amaretto that is commonly used in this drink, claims that the Godfather was a favourite of Marlon Brando.
As Marlon Brando starred in the original adaptation of the movie The Godfather and the Italian mob was such a prominent component of The Godfather,
many think that the name of the cocktail is the same as the movie because of the drink containing Italian liqueur.
Alexander 20
Although originally made using gin, chocolate liqueur and cream, in around 1922, Princess Mary married Viscount Lascelles in London.
Most believe that this was the time when gin was replaced with brandy in honour of this event.
Thus, the Brandy Alexander was born. This is now the most popular version of this drink.
Black Russian 17
Traditionally made by pouring the vodka over cracked ice in an old-fashioned glass, followed by the coffee liqueur,
this combination first appeared in 1949, and is ascribed to Gustave Tops, a Belgian barman, who created it at the Hotel Metropole in Brussels in honour of Perle Mesta,
then U.S. ambassador to Luxembourg.
