Mohito
The Mojito, was once known as an El Drake (late 16th C), named after Sir Francis Drake who was known as the “dragon” of the seas, and regarded as the ultimate Bad Ass to ever float on a piece of wood, possibly even walk on wood. He did a huge stint in Caribbean waters where mint was available especially in Cuba. They used to use the local aguardiente (fire water) as the base spirit, but when rum became the norm (c.a. 1650), the El Drake became the Mojito
Daiquiri
A wide range of frozen Daiquiris to cover any time of day. Try a pomegranate or Kiwi or stick to the Strawberry.
Margarita
Often considered one of ‘the classics’, with several different stories laying claim to its creation, it is in fact pre-dated in written reference at least by a cocktail with the same recipe as the classic Margarita, but named the Picador and dating back to the 1930s. Even this may not be the true origins, for the idea of mixing spirit with citrus juice and sugar has been recorded as early as early as 1866.
Caipiroska
The Caipivodka (also known as Caipiroska, Caipiroshka or Caipirovka), in which vodka substitutes for cachaça
Espresso Martini
Another from drinks legend Dick Bradsell who created this drink (once called “The Stimulant”) at the Pharmacy in 1990′s Notting Hill.
White Russian
The traditional cocktail known as a Black Russian, which first appeared in 1949, becomes a White Russian with the addition of cream. Neither drink is Russian in origin, but both are so named due to vodka being the primary ingredient. It is unclear which drink preceded the other.
