It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas... Cheers!
The festive season is officially here, and we couldn’t be more excited! Since the official Christmas lights switch on, last week in Marylebone Village, home to our flagship boutique, we're feeling all the festive feels.
To get into the spirit, we’ve partnered with our friends at 108 Brasserie to spread a little Christmas cheer. What better way to celebrate than with a delicious Mistletoe Mule? This limited-time cocktail is the perfect mix of seasonal flavours, and we’re thrilled to share the not-so secret ingredients with you!
The Caroline Gardner Mistletoe Mule is a festive twist on the classic Moscow Mule, offering a delightful balance of sweet and sour flavours. The cocktail starts with a base of vodka, which is paired with zesty fresh lime juice to give it that signature sour kick. The sweetness comes from a splash of cranberry, adding a tart but fruity note that complements the tangy lime perfectly.
To add an extra layer of warmth and spice, the drink is topped with ginger beer, giving it that fizzy, effervescent finish that’s both refreshing and slightly spicy. Garnished with a lightly scorched orange peel, this cocktail is a festive and fun way to celebrate the season with a perfect mix of sweet and sour flavours that dance on your palate whilst you celebrate the glee of giving.
