SIGNATURE TWISTS ON THE CLASSICS
At the Milestone Hotel in Kensington , London , signature cocktails drive sales , says Angelo Le Greco , senior bar manager : “ Guests always like to try something new , and they always come back for more .”
These signature cocktails served at Stables Bar are simple twists on classics , made with homemade syrups and mixers . One very popular drink is the Duchess Hourglass , a local version of the negroni that swaps out vermouth with Dubonnet .
“ The ingredients of the Duchess Hourglass are strictly connected to the royal family traditions : Beefeater London Dry Gin , Dubonnet – the queen ’ s favorite aperitif – and Campari stirred with fresh muddled raspberries and strained over a crystal ice ball , finished with coffee and cloves aroma ,” says Noli Alngohuro , bar and lounge manager . “ Having a signature cocktail can be a reason for your guest to try new experiences . Often , there is a story behind such a drink and its creation , and this makes it more interesting and helps to drive sales by talking to guest about it and using social media .”
