TGIF! What are you drinking this weekend? Me? Fine à l’eau This drink was highly popular some 100+ years ago and traditionally made with just cognac and water. It’s gradually been gaining new traction with cocktail aficionados. I happily found I had a bottled fine à l’eau in my fridge from @bar_nouveau_ so I had an elevated version to kick off the weekend! To make it at home you can keep it simple and add a bit of water to cognac, to your taste. Or I found this recipe by @remy_savage_ on the @martellofficial website which I’m guessing is close to (or same as?) what’s found at the bar and how I’d give it a go next time at home: 35 ml Martell VS 15 ml Simple syrup 25 ml Verjus 100 ml Sparkling water Mix all ingredients except water together over ice in a tall glass and top with sparkling water. #fineleau #finealeau #oldcocktails #cognaccocktails #cognac #cognacdrinks #frenchdrinks #frenchcocktails #frenchtradition #frenchstyle #cocktaillover #cocktailblog #cocktailwriter #drinkswriter #tgif #weekend #whatimdrinking #whatareyoudrinking #weekenddrinks #homebar #cocktailrecipes #pariscocktails #homebar #drinkcognac #frenchhistory #cheers #happyhour #apero #aperitif #aperohour #sante

Where to drink in Paris this week 🍸 It’s that time of the week when I share my three top recs for where to drink in Paris over the next seven days. 1. Don’t miss this Friday’s guest shift at @sistermidnightparis who is welcoming @staygoldflamingo bartenders all the way from Singapore! Guaranteed to be a fun night. 💖 2. Before or after heading to Sister Midnight, revisit an old favorite just next door @classique.cafe Why revisit? Because if you haven’t tried their cocktail menu based around wine, it’s high time you do. Try the “dirty martini” with a wine foam. It’s divine! 🍷 3. For something new, hit up @jefreysbar where they are showcasing a cool new menu from @a.rostoucher based around cinema. 🎥 That’s the broad strokes, but if you want more detail, there’s a little little bit more of a write up at the link in bio ⬆️ #ParisCocktails #WhereToDrink #ToDrinkParis #ParisNightlife #Cocktails #Drinks #NewCocktailMenu #ParisGuests #BarGuestShifts #WineCocktails #Bartenders #SingaporeCocktails #Wine #Francophile #IHeartParis #ParisianStyle #CocktailsAndCinema #CocktailsAndMovies #CinemaInspiredCocktails #ConceptualCocktailMenu #CocktailHour #CocktailsInParis #InParis #ParisBars #BestOfParis #drinkparis #barlife #CocktailBlog #CocktailBlogger #CocktailWriter
