1. Orange and Cinnamon Cooler by Candy & Green

1/4 cinnamon powder

10 ml of lime juice

6-8 fresh mint leaves

60 ml whisky

4-5 ice cubes

1 slice of orange for garnish

1 cinnamon stick for garnish

Hand press mint leaves and shake them with the rest of the ingredients. Garnish the drink with a slice of orange and a cinnamon stick. You’re good to gulp this drink down, cause why not!

3. Chamomile Cordial by Gustoso

Conceptualized by mixologist Jason D`Souza, the drink features chamomile tea, which is known to be a natural, safe and inexpensive way to help manage stress and boost emotional health and wellness. Lemon & orange are, of course, much-needed sources of Vitamin C. Peppercorns are high in antioxidants which help fight cough, cold and other such flu-related symptoms.

Ingredients:

1 Cup Dried Chamomile Flowers

2 Cups Granulated Sugar

2 Cups of Water

50 White Peppercorns

1 Cinnamon Stick

Peel of 1 Lemon

Peel of 1 Orange

3 oz (88 ml) Brandy

Method:

Combine all ingredients, except Brandy, in a pot and cook on medium-high heat until steaming hot. Allow this to steep on low heat for 3 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool. Once down to near room temperature, run through a fine-mesh strainer and add the Brandy for fortification and flavour. This will keep indefinitely and may be stored at room temperature, or can be refrigerated.
