Remember The Grain

Vermouth Brings the Funk

Kombucha, a fermented tea drink, has come into vogue over the past few years, with different brands popping up all over the place. Finding a good brand is key and I always prefer to use the unflavoured varieties, as the flavoured ones tend to mask the other ingredients in a drink. Dolin Blanc is a light vermouth with a floral finish that gives the coconut water a lift.

I wrote this cocktail in 2014, when we discovered the local fruit and veg’ shop was selling fresh turmeric. If you haven’t used it before, it is incredible, with a huge amount of flavour, spice and colour. I served this cocktail at my wedding this year and it was, without a doubt, the most popular cocktail of the day.
