Ingredients
Method
Amaro Mio
Method:
Add the amaretto, dark rum, cranberry, apple and ginger juice to the cocktail shaker. Shake and serve in a short tumbler glass filled to the top with ice. Garnish the cocktail with the cinnamon stick and a glacé cherry. Finish with a sprinkle of cinnamon powder and enjoy!
Festive Mojito
Method:
Build the mocktail by adding the cranberry juice, apple juice, gomme and mint syrup to a shaker. Shake thoroughly to ensure it is fully muddled. Prepare a high ball glass with ice and strain the cocktail over the top. Add red currants, mint leaves and a wedge of lime to add a finishing touch.
