Description

This 50-card boxed set and a 64-page book provides everything you need to know to create exquisite home-grown cocktails from foraged fruits, herbs and edible flowers.

Lottie Muir is the creator of the Midnight Apothecary pop-up cocktail bar, set in a roof garden in the heart of London, where she also grows many of the ingredients for her mixes. Moving from flowerbed to bar, she rustles up seasonal plant-powered cocktails, made with the harvest from her garden and from foraging trips. The book features The Cocktail Cabinet, where Lottie explains both gardening and cocktail-making basics. She tells you what botanicals you will need year-round, including edible flowers. She also introduces you to basic equipment and techniques for making infusions and syrups as well as cocktails, and suggests garnishes. Then, using the card deck, make a wide range of recipes for Garden Cocktails, Foraged Cocktails, Mocktails and Restorative Cocktails. With delicious drinks such as the gorgeous Gorse Collins, Wild Cherry Rye Manhattan and a Lavender Bees Knees, you will appreciate the flavours of the garden and the wild, with the kick of a cocktail.
