A true spring cocktail, design specifically to highlight spring and the Bols Genever product line. We took this recipe from a mixologist and made it common man style, yet you’ll still need to pickup a bottle of Bols Genever if you want to give this a try as we’re tasting it here. However, plenty of great spirits may work in conjunction to these fresh fruits.
Looking for something to drink after dinner that should fit your sweet tooth? Perhaps the Chocolate Copabanana is something you’d be interested in, utilizing banana liqueur, chocolate milk and some Irish Cream. We’ll top it with a little whip cream and chocolate shavings to garnish.
We’re creating the cocktail we reference all the time in the show, the Midori Sour. Oddly enough, we’ve not utilized this recipe before on the show or at home off the show. We’re souring up the midori with some lemon and bringing a beautifully intense consistency with a bit of egg white.

We’re utilizing a good amount of Vermouth for this cocktail, so you’re going to get a dry white wine flair to the cocktail that may be inviting to some and a turn off to others.
The four gin brands include g’vine, martin miller, tanqueray and bombay sapphire. We build Tom Collins, taste and tell you the difference.
