Bar Guide

Orgeat is the almond syrup without which no Mai Tai works – and the syrup whose name has nothing to do with almonds. Where it comes from, what it tastes like, and what you need it for.

Gin Basil Smash like at Le Lion: the original recipe from Hamburg, the right gin, the most important steps — and the non-alcoholic version.

Vermouth explained: How the aromatized wine is made, what differentiates red, white, and dry varieties — and how to drink it correctly.

Negroni in the original 1:1:1 ratio: which gin, which red vermouth, which bitter — plus Sbagliato and the alcohol-free version.

Limoncello Spritz like in Italy: Original recipe with a 3:2:1 ratio, the right Limoncello — plus alcohol-free version.
