COPIOUS was in the Mix Studio Bar for her first time demonstrating how to make some of the most unique and delicious drinks to date. First, Vanessa, venue and bar manager, taught Mix listeners how to make one of their staple drinks, the Honey and Lavender Cocktail. This drink left the Mix Studio Bar speechless. The drink was sweet, full of flavor, aromatic, and had a unique flavor incomparable to any other drink out there. Next, Vanessa made a Negroni – a classic cocktail made of one part gin, one part vermouth, and one part Campari, garnished with orange peel. Learn to make both drinks using the recipes below.
