With some warmer weather finally here, what better way to cool off after work than with a summery cocktail?
The London Cocktail Club has devised three new drinks to usher in the new season (priced £9-£9.50), which can be tasted at all six of the club’s venues in Oxford Circus, Covent Garden, Shaftesbury Avenue, Goodge Street, Shoreditch or Islington.
Budding mixologists can also whip them up in the comfort of their own home as LCC owner JJ Goodman has shared the recipes with the Ham&High.
From the Breaking Bad-inspired Heisenberg, an alternative to the classic Margarita, to Bump & Grind, a twist on the espresso Martini for the sweet-toothed, there’s a drink for all palettes here.
