A little expansion on the spirit front sees Citadelle Raspberry Vodka and Citadelle Apple Vodka join our list. Great sipping on their own straight from the freezer but why not try something a little more sophisticated - we're talking cocktails here people!

| | White Port Cocktails | Permalink | Posted by Andrew Barrow on August 29th 2007 2:41pm.
 Some years ago there was a rather good 'independent wine merchants' fair in Vinopolis, London. One of the specialists offered a range of Portuguese wines which and was giving out samples of a cocktail made from white port and soda.
Very refreshing.
I was reminded of this as I worked through our port listings (I'm adding a photograph to each of our product listings) and came across the Churchill's White Port. Would make a great base for that cocktail thought I...
We actually list two white ports. The Churchill's, as mentioned, in half bottle (£6.19) and full bottle sizes (£12.19) and one from Martinez (£8.40). The Churchill's is dry, while the Martinez is much sweeter. The former would be my choice for the long and refreshing drink I sampled at the fair, but for those who like a sweeter drink perhaps the latter would be more suitable. The Cardicus is a cocktail I have heard mention of all over the place but have yet to sample; anyone confirm it as worth a try?
Long White Port Cocktail
Mix equal parts white port and tonic water and serve over ice with a slice of lemon. Long, fresh, flavoursome and stylish. A great alternative to G&T.
Cardicas Cocktail
Mix one part White Port with one part Cointreau and two parts white rum.
