This limoncello cocktail fortified with gin and ki

This limoncello cocktail fortified with gin and kissed with amaretto and a splash of cold-brew coffee draws inspiration from @Coterie_Chs bartender Riley Lavin’s grandparents. Her grandmother would spend all morning cooking and invite all who wanted to join the family for a meal. After dinner, her grandfather would serve gin over Italian lemon ice or a glass of homemade limoncello. Check out her recipe via the link in our bio.🍋

Speaking of Margaritas, this cocktail from Hailey

Speaking of Margaritas, this cocktail from Hailey Knight and Casey Knight (no relation) of @FelixCharleston takes the spicy Margarita for an extra-savory spin. Saline lends saltiness, while Lillet Blanc rounds out the edges of the fresh lime juice. Meanwhile, Knight recommends using your favorite hot sauce to spice it up. “The key is to use a vinegar-based hot sauce to complement the cocktail’s flavors rather than compete with them,” she says. Recipe link in our bio.🌶️

For decades, the Margarita has reigned as a champion of the cocktail world, and Los Angeles is home to some of the best Margaritas in the country. Which is why it makes perfect sense that LA-based Imbibe digital editor Caroline Pardilla (@carolineoncocktails) would make this iconic cocktail the topic of her first book, Margarita Time!, which debuted last week. Today on Radio Imbibe, Caroline joins Paul Clarke (@cocktailchron) to talk about the many facets of this classic drink and how it continues to inspire bartenders around the world.
