What I love the most about making drinks is the emotion that you can create for the client directly in front of you.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.27.4″]<\/p>\n The best option for rum, beginners and pros, is the daiquiri. An extremely simple drink but still not easy to make well! But, there is nothing more delicious than when those three ingredients \u2013 rum, fresh lime and sugar \u2013 mix together well!<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.27.4″]<\/p>\n I think more and more people are looking to drink responsibly, so a low ABV(Alcohol by Volume) looks to be a trend that will be around for a while. <\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.27.4″]<\/p>\n I really love the Elegance Optic Belle Coupe.<\/a> It is a very elegant glass that is definitely one of my favourites in the range.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”3.26.6″][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.waterfordcrystal.com.au\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Elegance_Optic_LS_12.jpg” url=”https:\/\/www.waterfordcrystal.com.au\/elegance-optic-champagne-belle-coupe-pair.html” url_new_window=”on” align=”center” _builder_version=”3.26.6″ width=”100%” module_alignment=”center” custom_padding=”25px||25px||false|false”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_button button_url=”https:\/\/www.waterfordcrystal.com.au\/collections\/elegance\/” url_new_window=”on” button_text=”Shop Elegance Collection” button_alignment=”center” admin_label=”Button” _builder_version=”3.26.6″ custom_padding=”||||false|false”][\/et_pb_button][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”3.26.6″ background_color=”#ffffff”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”3.26.6″][et_pb_divider color=”#474747″ _builder_version=”3.26.6″][\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.27.4″ background_color=”rgba(0,0,0,0)”]<\/p>\n When Andrea was approached by Waterford to create cocktails inspired by Valentine\u2019s Day, we knew a series to fall in love would be created.

Alcohol absorbs flavours, resulting in a more complex cocktail flavour experience. In this recipe, once strained, the water content of the coconut milk is removed, leaving a fantastic nutty aftertaste on your drink.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ _builder_version=”3.26.6″ background_color=”#d6d6d6″ width=”90%” width_tablet=”” width_phone=”95%” width_last_edited=”on|phone” custom_padding=”25px||||false|false” border_width_all=”2px” border_color_all=”#000000″ border_width_top=”0px”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”3.26.6″][et_pb_text admin_label=”Text” _builder_version=”3.27.4″ custom_margin=”|||20px|false|false” custom_css_main_element=”.et_pb_text ul, .et_pb_text ol { margin: 30px; }”]<\/p>\n Description:<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n Summer isn\u2018t over!
