After all the changed plans and car issues it was wonderful to finally get to Leiden in Netherlands. 🥂 What a beautiful place it was, all the canals, little shops, cafes, restaurants and bars.. I will definitely return with more time and hire a small boat to go around. There is also a beach nearby making it an excellent holiday destination, especially when Amsterdam is getting super busy. ⛵ Where are you travelling during your summer holidays? ☀️ Did you know that single malt whisky is a product of a single distillery, but most single malts are a blend of several casks? 🥃 Or that there are over 20 million casks maturing in warehouses in Scotland? 🤤 Do you know any interesting or random whisky facts? Or little snippets about other spirits? How about a wee Sunday dram? Head over to Kaleidoscope Whisky Bar in Edinburgh, they have amazing selection of unique single malts, all bottled at cask strength. 🥃 Most of their whiskies are from Scotland, and they have purchased casks from pretty much every single distillery there, including some “silent” distilleries that are no longer in operation. In their recent outturn they also released a few Irish whiskeys, and, in the past, have even had some from Japan. 😋 To read more about @smws_uk head over to the blog! ➡️➡️➡️ This cocktail was inspired by @danmagro 's spicy watermelon cocktail.. 🍉 I used @arbikiedistillery Chilli Vodka (+fresh watermelon juice, lemon juice and mint), which is made by soaking chipotle chillies in Arbikie potato vodka base. It's all natural, nothing artificial is added into the mix. 🌶️ 🌶️ The chipotle chillies come from Scotland’s one and only chilli farm, Chillilicious in Fife. Chipotle is a smoke-dried jalapeno which is typically used in Mexican foods. These chillies add slight smokiness and earthy notes to Arbikie Vodka, and obviously just the right amount of spiciness. 😈 To learn more about Arbikie Distillery and their field to bottle methods, or to read about their Chilli Vodka, head over to the blog! ➡️➡️➡️ I might have missed the Mojito Day, but better late than never they say... Here's a super fresh watermelon Mojito I made earlier this week! 🍉 The watermelon here in Italy is super sweet and delicious this summer, just can't get enough of it! I think I need to create a few more watermelon cocktails next month after I return from my Scotland trip. (we are driving to Glasgow from Florence, leaving tomorrow morning 🚘) ➡️Tag @onthesauceagain in your yummy drink photos and share your inspiration with me! I might try to create your recipes on my return! 😋 🍹 Testing a lovely new Finnish vodka, Arctic Unique, made with rye and barley malt. 🌾 This cocktail was inspired by @thesocialsipper 's The Green Mile recipe, however it turned out all my kiwis had turned fairly yellow 🥝 🙄 and I forgot to use soda even if I had it in the fridge... It doesn't always go according to plan, but hey, the cocktail tasted good anyway and this new vodka is excellent! Next time you fly @feelfinnair you should get yourself a bottle! (BTW this is not a sponsored post, just want to share my thoughts on delicious spirits with you..) 👍
