#211 Cocktail: Mexican Squirrel

    Just like the previous cocktail, Maryland Squirrel, this one belongs in the "squirrel" category of cocktails which Gaz Regan created.
    The name? Well, the base alcohol is tequila, so.........

2 ounces tequila

3/4 ounce creme de noyau

3/4 fresh lime juice

#210 Cocktail: Maryland Squirrel

    The cocktail belongs to the series that Gaz Regan created started from the original pink squirrel cocktail and using different other liqueurs
     Of course the name of the cocktail comes from the fact that the base alcohol is the rye whiskey and from history, we know that it was born in Maryland and Pennsylvania

1 1/2 ounce rye whiskey

3/4 ounce creme de noyau

1/2 ounce fresh lemon juice

  

#209 Cocktail: Maiden's Blush

       The original recipe of this drink can be found in "The Savoy Cocktail Book" by Harry Craddock and it was later updated by Gary Regan in "The Joy of Mixology" (the book that I'm using) . Despite the ingredients, the proportions have been changed, because otherwise, you would had the feeling that you are drinking a glass of gin :)
       The name of the cocktail comes from the Maiden's Blush rose which has the same color as the drink

2 ounces gin

3/4 ounce triple sec

1/2 ounce fresh lemon juice

grenadine to taste

#208 Cocktail: Marvel Sling

   Even if it looks like a tropical cocktail, this one doesn't taste like one. I mean it is not really fruity, the Benedictine adding a powerful taste to it. Also it is quite a strong cocktail. I might say that it's not between my favorites.
   The cocktail was created by Gaz Regan for the Trotter's bar in Port of Spain, Trinidad

2 ounces gin

1/4 ounce Benedictine

1/4 ounce mango nectar

1/2 ounce fresh lemon juice

tamarind juice to taste

Angostura bitters to taste

club soda

#207 Cocktail: Marin-i-tini

  First of all, I just want to say that this is very tasty cocktail. If you don't like the strong cocktails and also do not want to drink only classics, this one is a good alternative.

   The cocktail is adapted from a recipe by Manne Hinojosa of the Walnut Creek Yacht Club in California

1 1/2 ounce Vodka

1/2 ounce triple sec

1/2 ounce peach schnapps 

1/2 ounce fresh lime juice

1/4 ounce blue curacao
