25.01.2022 #3 SHAKE IT! : Honeysuckle. Shaking chills a drink fast. It makes for a light and airy cocktail, best enjoyed immediately. As a general rule for The Everleigh, drinks with citrus are always shaken and drinks without are stirred. Shake hard, for no longer than *10 seconds (*longer for egg drinks) so not to over dilute, then strain into a chilled glass quick smart! When asked how quickly you should drink a cocktail, Harry Craddock, legendary bartender and author of The Savoy ...Cocktail Book responded with Quickly, while its laughing at you!, referring to the ice chips that move and disappear on the glass as they melt and dilute the drink. No cocktail looks more alive, freshly shaken than the Daiquiri. Switch out the sugar for honey for one of our favourite variations, the Honeysuckle Add 60ml light rum, 30ml fresh lime juice and 22ml honey to a shaker with ice. Shake and strain into a frozen cocktail glass and garnish with a wedge of lime. Want to get straight to the drinking? Order online now via https://theeverleigh.square.site/ and have our team deliver freshly shaken drinks direct to your door until 9.30pm tonight! #TheEverleigh #ASpotOnTheCouch

24.01.2022 #8 THE BALANCING ACT: Negroni "The bitters are excellent for your liver, the gin is bad for you. They balance each other." - Orson Welles Our classic Negroni is one of our most requested recipes, and for good reason. The Negroni first made a stir around 1919 and is now internationally recognised as the ultimate pre-dinner cocktail.... Take 22ml of gin, 30ml of Cocchi sweet vermouth and 22ml of Campari Australia Official, and build your ingredients in a rocks glass with ice. Garnish with an orange twist, and that's it! Swap your gin for rye whiskey and you'll get what acclaimed bartender Harry MacElhone of Harry's New York Bar in Paris called My Old Pal. Missing an ingredient? Order a Negroni to your door via https://theeverleigh.square.site/ - we're delivering tonight until 9.30pm! #TheEverleigh #ASpotOnTheCouch

21.01.2022 #8 STIRRED IS THE WORD: The Right Hand Love the consistency of a stirred sipper when sitting up at the bar but struggle to recreate the magic at home? Whilst bartending is by no means rocket science, there are certainly a few tricks of the trade that make great drinks stand out in a crowd. First off, make sure your mixing glass (pint glass will do) is ice cold. As always, add the cheapest ingredients in the drink first in case of error. Once all the ingredients are in, add a... handful of ice cubes. Now, you dont need a fancy stirring spoon. At home, I like to use a chopstick. To avoid splashing as the ice goes in, put the chopstick into the mixing glass at an angle, and drop the cubes onto the chopstick to break their fall. Now its time to stir. Get a comfortable grip that allows you to circulate your wrist, and try for a seamless flow. Unlike with shaking a cocktail, there is no need to agitate or aerate the drink. Keep watch as your mixture line rises as the ice dilutes. Taste often to check dilution. We say about 30ml of water is required for 90ml of alcohol. When the liquid is ice cold and tasting great, strain into a cold cocktail glass, fresh from the freezer. Tonight were mixing up the Right Hand cocktail, an exceptional riff on the Boulevardier, made with aged rum and a dash of mole bitters (head to our friends The Bitters Lab on Smith St to stock up!)... Add 45ml aged rum, 22ml sweet vermouth, 22ml campari and 2 dashes of mole bitters to an ice cold mixing glass. Stir and strain into a frozen cocktail glass. Garnish with an orange twist. Prefer we do the heavy mixing? The Right Hand cocktail (2 serves) is available for free delivery to inner Melbourne tonight and tomorrow via https://theeverleigh.square.site/ #TheEverleigh #ASpotOnTheCouch

13.01.2022 #4 BUILT TO LAST : Bobby Burns #2 Built on the rocks drinks are straight-talking and simple in form, a great go-to at home with little preparation or kit required. When building a cocktail on the rocks, add all ingredients first and ice last, to control dilution. Big blocks of ice play a central role in drinks like these, cooling fast, and melting slowly so the drink can be sipped and enjoyed for longer. Do yourself a favour and get a few Navy Strength Ice Co. blocks in the ...freezer. Tonight its all about Bobby. It doesnt happen often, but sometimes the sequel really is better than the original, and this is sometimes. Michael Madrusan discovered this drink a little later on in his career, in a book gifted to him by Greg Boehm of Cocktail Kingdom, called 1700 Cocktails for the Man Behind the Bar by R. de Fleury, 1934. Whilst the name of de Fleurys book is grossly outdated, we can confirm that this drink is not... Build 45ml Scotch whisky, 15ml Cocchi sweet vermouth & 7ml maraschino liqueur in a rocks glass before adding ice. Garnish with a lemon twist. *Switch maraschino liqueur for Benedictine to get the Bobby Burns #1, or use Drambuie for the Bobby Burns #3. #TheEverleigh #ASpotOnTheCouch

12.01.2022 Melbourne's best bars are coming home to you, very soon... 7 bars, 7 cocktails, delivering nationwide with The Everleigh Bottling Co. Save the industry that lives to serve. Stay tuned ... #TheEverleighBottlingCo #togetherinspirits #savehospo

12.01.2022 #9: KEEP IT COOL: Glassware Golden Rules This is a no-brainer. Why work so hard to make a perfect cocktail and then pour it into a warm glass? Start with chilled glassware and you'll have a colder drink that will stay colder for longer. The Golden Rules:... 1. Wine and Champagne are always served in room-temperature glasses. 2. Champagne cocktails are served in chilled glasses. Not frozen, but cold. 3. If there's no room for your glassware in the freezer, just leave a little ice and cold water in the glass for a few minutes in preparation. 4. Glassware should always be clean, and glassware that's not frozen should always be polished. Follow these rules and your home bartending will be all the better for it! #TheEverleigh #ASpotOnTheCouch

12.01.2022 Let us make your Friday night an occasion, with cocktails to your door. Try a Chet Baker, with aged rum, sweet vermouth, honey and angostura. Served over Navy Strength Ice Co. and garnished with orange. Order via https://theeverleigh.square.site/ and well be right there! #TheEverleigh #ASpotOnTheCouch

10.01.2022 #7 ITS A GIN THING : Gordons Cup All hail the almighty white spirit! Gin is undoubtedly the backbone of classic cocktail culture; an incredibly versatile spirit that only continues to grow in popularity and diversify both here in Australia and all over the world. Like a gin Caipirinha with extra zing, the Gordons Cup is a simple yet satisfying savoury option thats quick and easy to mix up in the comfort of your kitchen. The cucumber and fresh lime keep it crisp, light and... refreshing, whilst the salt and pepper add a touch of savoury spice. This drink is one of Sasha Petraskes (RIP) from 2005 and remains an all time favourite of ours at The Everleigh... Add 5 fresh lime chunks, 3 cucumber slices and 22ml sugar syrup to a shaker and muddle (press ingredients firmly to crush and extract citrus, the back of a spoon will do). Add 60ml gin of choice and cracked ice and shake briefly. Empty into a frozen tumbler and garnish with more cucumber slices and a sprinkle of salt and black pepper. *Add a little worcestershire and hot sauce for an even more savoury sipper known as Gordons Breakfast!

10.01.2022 #6 TEQUILA TIME : Coffee House Its world Tequila Day! Our love of tequila cocktails at The Everleigh is no secret. From classic Margaritas and their many variations to spicy, savoury numbers like the El Guapo, tequila is a vibrant and versatile spirit that never fails to bring the party. The Tequila Coffee House is our riff on the classic cocktail, traditionally made with rye whisky. We loved this one so much we bottled it up back in 2015 to celebrate the opening of Heartbre...aker... Add 45ml tequila, 22ml coffee liqueur (we like Mr Black Spirits) and two dashes of orange bitters to a rocks glass with ice. Garnish with a lemon twist and you're ready to rock n roll - BYO playlist Prefer for us to do the heavy mixing? Order now via https://theeverleigh.square.site/ for delivery within the hour! #TheEverleigh #ASpotOnTheCouch
