This is the Soulshakers idiot-proof guide to making great cocktails at home and eventually holding great cocktail parties. All the ingredients used are available in major supermarkets we have tried to make recipes that are good for serving in multiples. For your party simply multiply the ingredients for each by the number of people at the people. If you have any problems don’t hesitate to substitute ingredients. Remember if it tastes good to you it probably will for your guests as well.

Party cocktails


THE BIG CHILL PUNCH
Made famous as the fastest selling cocktail of all time over the last 2 years at the Big Chill, this is another great party drink that can easily be pre-prepared just like the spring punch above. With advancements in the London bar scene this cocktail can now be prepared with pre bought ingredients. For those not venturing to Selfridges though I have included a fresh fruit based one as well.

Makes 24

1btl Finlandia Vodka
500ml Peach Puree (or blended flesh of 8 ripe peaches)
500ml Passion fruit Puree (or the contents 12 passion fruit
The juice of 15 lemons
2btl D’Arbo Peach and Passion fruit syrup
100g caster sugar
2btl champagne or sparkling wine

Method
Mix all ingredients in a large punch bowl. Stir the purees first in with the syrups to amalgamate correctly. This can then be refrigerated until required. This mixture should be shaken over ice and strained into the tallest glass you have, then top with champagne.
Garnish with a peach slice.

SUMMER OF LOVE
The best new summer idea in ages, wine and spirits in the same glass!! We wanted a drink that would have the appeal of a Pimms cup or a spritzer with a bit of a stealth kick. The drink uses red grapes as a sweetener cutting down on the quantity of refined simple sugars that are the health hazard of most cocktails. Any wine can be used but we find that a typical NZ Sauvignon Blanc is the best for its zingy character. Hope the fun is experimenting to find other similar drinks with ingredients to suit a particular bottle. Go on play!

Makes 18

1btl Finlandia Mango
Juice of 9 lemons
400g Red grapes
300ml passion fruit syrup (elderflower makes a different but still tasty drink if no passionfruit is available)
1ltr pressed apple juice
2btl Sav. Blanc

Method
Take all ingredients apart from the wine and crush them up in a large bowl. Cover and refrigerate for as long as possible. This allows the colour and tannins to make their way from the skins bringing a beautiful colour and more complex flavour. Just before service either shake a cupful of the mixture and pour over cubed ice and top with wine or add all ingredients to a cup of cubed ice and pour this more agricultural version into glasses. Both taste great, just depends on your time and shaking inclination.
menu




SOULSHAKERS RUM PUNCH

This is one of the easiest party drinks; people can serve themselves with a ladle allowing you to spend more time hosting. Any rum can be used but it is great to have a blend of quality products.

Makes approx 50 drinks:
Ingredients:
1 bottle of quality light rum eg Havana Club
1 bottle of quality golden rum eg Mount Gay
1 bottle of quality dark rum eg Myers
1 bottle of quality over proof rum eg Woods 100
2 litres pressed pineapple juice
2 litres freshly squeezed orange juice
1 litre limejuice
1 litre of Guava juice (Rubicon)
1 bottle Cointreau
1/2 litre Simple Syrup
1/5 Bottle Angostura Bitters

Method
Throw all the ingredients into a big bowl and add any tropical fruits that are in season eg mango and passion fruit
Add 1/2 kilo of ice and stir, keep in the fridge until the party kicks off and serve with glasses and an ice bucket full of ice, and a large ladle.
If you fancy you can lay out cut fruits so your guests can imaginatively garnish their own cocktails.
menu




HARVEST MOON PUNCH

This is a great winter cocktail for Halloween parties and carol singers. Easy to make and a great talking point we have gently adapted this recipe from Dale DeGroff.

Makes 100 drinks

Ingredients
1 bottle Quality Bourbon eg Woodford Reserve
2.5 litres of any cider eg Ye Olde English
3 star anise heads
3 cinnamon sticks
3 cloves
The zest of one large navel orange (in large pieces)
150g Brown Sugar
2 green apples sliced

Method
Place all ingredients in your largest saucepan and simmer for 40 minutes. Don’t BOIL! Strain through sieve, replace the apple slices and serve in a hollowed out pumpkin, which acts like a thermos keeping the drink warm. Warms the heart and the fingers and is surprisingly alcoholic.
menu




SPRING PUNCH
A party favourite designed to use up some of the dodgy sparkling wine that some people always bring to parties. Make the base in advance and top up with bubbly. Easy to make and a showstopper.

Makes 24 drinks:

Ingredients:
1 bottle of Vodka
0.8 litres fresh lemon juice
1/2 litre of simple syrup
0.4 litres cassis
1 punnett of fresh raspberries
2 bottles champagne

Method
Push raspberries through a sieve to obtain a coulis. Add all other ingredients apart from the champagne into the large punch bowl and stir with 1/2 a kilo of ice. When serving ladle over ice in your tallest glass and top with champagne. For full effect garnish with a lemon slice and a raspberry.
menu




SOULSHAKERS SANGRIA
A twist on the classic sangria, using English mulled wine spices to make an all year round party winner, also gets rid of any excess red wine.

Serves 20:

Ingredients:
2 bottles of red wine, ideally big mellow merlots or Zinfandel
1 litre of freshly squeezed orange juice.
Juice and zest of two lemons
Zest of one orange
1/2 bottle of Cointreau
1 stick of cinnamon
3 cloves

Method
Cut up some oranges and lemons and stir with the other ingredients adding the spices in a spice bag. The longer you leave this the better it tastes. It can be made in the morning and kept in the fridge. Serve with a ladle and wine glasses.
menu




BLOODY BUFFET
A great brunch idea or when recovering from an excess filled evening. Let your guests make their own bloody marys from a range of ingredients. You provide freshly made tomato juice and they do the rest.

Serves 20

You should have:
8 Litres of tomato juice
This is easy to make. In a food processor juice grape or plum tomatoes with their skins on but de seed them first. We like the texture the skins give but if you slightly blanche them first they can be easily skinned for a smoother juice.
3 bottles of good quality vodka eg Finlandia (some gin and tequila might also be useful)
1 bottle of Worcestershire sauce
1 bottle of Tabasco
200g fresh red ripe chillis deseeded and chopped
100g freshly grated horseradish
100g celery stalks
500ml lemon juice
500ml limejuice
Freshly ground seas salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1/2 bottle red wine
1/2 Fino Sherry
1 litre V8 juice
If your budget stretches 1 litre Clam juice
50ml Wasabi
100ml Soya Sauce
100ml Balsamic Vinegar
Fresh Basil

Method
Provide ice and mixing apparatus (a jug and spoon will be fine) Have celery and lemon or lime wedges to garnish and if possible a couple of dozen oysters for the ultimate hedonistic hangover cure.
Simple syrup is easy to make take one empty bottle fill it half full with caster sugar and the another half with water, shake until dissolved that’s it….SIMPLE!
menu




THE TAPASTINIS
As suggested by my great friend and associate Dr. J.C. we presented a series of ‘canapé cocktails’ to various clients and guests and they went down a storm. While polishing glassware I noted that some of our miniature coupettes looked a similar shape to the eponymous bowl and lid combo that is tapas. We wanted to make a selection of drinks that fulfilled both the eating and drinking requirements of a partygoer. What we came up with were the tapastinis, a selection of sherry washed vodka martinis featuring the most outlandishly delicious garnishes all made from Spanish produce.

To recreate the effect chill the smallest martini glass you have, or buy some coupettes, a set of 12 is recommended.

Makes 12 drinks

2/3 bottle vodka
1/2 bottle of a nice Manzanilla sherry (feel free to try your favourite even if is a different style)
Olives, caper berries, sun dried tomatoes, Serrano ham, Chorizo, baby gherkins, almonds, and almost anything else nice.

Method
Build your garnishes first on cocktail sticks. Take the vodka and place it in the fridge with loads of ice cubes in a large pitcher, stir to dilute and set aside. Then wash the glasses in the sherry (no need to waste too much!) Place the garnish inside and then pour the cooled vodka mixture over the garnish.
The coolest host in town. You bet.
