Cocktail Mixology
Chelsea’s Tasting Notes
The Sexton Shot
- It’s nice!
- I am tasting all the flavor notes mentioned.
- It’s beautiful
- It grows on your tongue
- Perfect to enjoy on the rocks
- So good with corned beef and cabbage!
Stroke of Midnight Cocktail
- Curious to try this cocktail with different types of citrus bitters
- Excited to try because it smells divine
- I love it!
- What if, instead of topping with champagne, you topped with an Irish meade?
- We used a nicer bottle of champagne for this cocktail, which we don’t usually recommend, but it was delightful.
Erick’s Tasting Notes
The Sexton Shot
- Yep! That’s Irish.
- It’s not peaty, though.
- Has the Irish burn
- This is delicious
- Really want to try making this into an Old Fashioned cocktail
Stroke of Midnight Cocktail
- First sip wasn’t too exciting, but the second sip presented a very refreshing drink
- Would be a perfect drink for new years
- Maybe trying a different drier champagne versus the spumante we used.
- We used two different types of honey in a flavor experiment and they did taste very different.
