As Texan bartender Armando Garza will tell you, there is no time of day that isn’t perfect for an Espresso Martini.
And a riff on this classic drink was what he created for this year’s Giffard West Cup Cocktail Competition.
With the theme of Balance, Garza used his Las Paul guitar as inspiration, as playing this instrument not only brings balance to his life but the guitar itself looks a little like the drink.
So join Garza as he shows you how to make his riff, while explaining the flavours, the competition and what he loves about Giffard.
