    CLASSIC COCKTAILS Classic Champagne Cocktail Probably dating back to the 19th century, but nobody really knows on which side of the Atlantic it was first created. As a rule, the ingredients should never be mixed. Champagne, Cognac, Angostura bitter, sugar .................. 12.00 Bellini Guiseppi Cipriani of Harry’s Bar in Venice was inspired by the paintings by Giovanni Bellini to create this fresh Champagne cocktail. This cocktail was a favourite of Noel Coward and Ernest Hemingway whenever they visited the bar. White peach purée, Prosecco ............................... 10.50 Martini Cocktail The origin of Martini is unknown, but it started to gain popularity in the 1960’s when James Bond asked for a ‘shaken not stirred Martini’ in Goldfinger. Enjoy it traditionally with gin or if you prefer like James Bond with vodka. Gin or vodka, Vermouth ................................ from 9.00 Cosmopolitan The origins of the Cosmopolitan is somewhat disputed. It’s believed it started in the 1970’s in San Francisco, but it was in 1987 Tony Cecchini in New York made the cocktail famous. Ketel One citron, Cointreau, cranberry juice, fresh lime juice ....... 9.00 Tom Collins The origin can be traced back to the headwaiter John Collins at the Limmer’s Coffee House in London in 1817. He used a Dutch style gin to create this drink. Later a London gin was used. If you prefer with bourbon or whiskey, it’s a John Collins. City of London gin, lemon juice, gomme syrup, soda water ........ 9.00 All prices are inclusive of VAT. An optional 8% service charge will be added to your bill.

  • Fill a Collins Glass with Cubed Ice and Add: 2 Oz. of Gin 1.5 Oz. of Fresh Lemon Juice 1 Tsp
    With a legend that can be traced back to the 19th century, the assumption is often made that the Tom Collins cocktail is named after an historical figure -- the answer is, yes and no. The recipe for the Tom Collins -- gin, lemon juice, sugar and soda water -- first appeared in print in the 1876 The Bartender's Guide, authored by Jerry Thomas, widely considered to be the father of American mixology. The name of the cocktail most likely resulted from The Great Tom Collins Hoax of 1874. (We don't make this stuff up -- read on…) At that time, a popular practical joke in New York and Pennsylvania was to begin a conversation on the street by asking, "Have you seen Tom Collins?" When the listener predictably responded that he did not know Tom Collins, the speaker would act concerned, noting that Mr. Collins had been making some unpleasant and untrue statements about him. When the listener (predictably) became agitated, he was told that Collins was last spotted just around the corner or at a nearby bar. The flummoxed listener would then dash off to find the offending (but fictitious) Mr. Collins. Several newspapers of the era promulgated the joke by publishing stories of false sightings of Tom Collins. The Tom Collins holds such a significant place in mixology that the preferred glass for serving the cocktail -- a tall, narrow 10-14 oz. tumbler -- is called a Collins glass. With its relative simplicity, the gin-based Tom Collins has numerous variations that go by multiple names: John Collins – served with bourbon as base spirit; scotch in western U.S.) Juan Collins – white or silver tequila replaces gin Ron Collins – made with rum Brandy Collins / Vodka Collins – you’ve got these figured out! Tom Collins Fill a Collins glass with cubed ice and add: 2 oz.
