Let the #FancyDrinks commence. Espresso Martini (vodka, cold brew, coffee liqueur, salt). Young Kevin L’Empaleur, son of Vlad, has come to see the festive decor. Marjorie thinks it’s frivolous that I’ve been rummaging around in the hopper like Gareth Hunt for three perfect coffee beans as a garnish.

#FancyDrinks Sabot (gin, triple sec, lemon juice, sugar syrup, egg white, Prosecco). This is as lemony as a very lemony cocktail that’s just been awarded a degree in being lemony at Oxford University.
