Frozen Mudslide
This cocktail is pure indulgence in a glass. In fact it is so scrummy and filling that it could easily be a desert. If you like your cocktails thick, creamy and chocolaty then a frozen mudslide is definitely a winner!
Yield: 1 cocktail
Prep time: 5-8 minutes
Ingredients:
- 20 ml or 0.7 oz vodka
- 20 ml or 0.7 oz Kahlua
- 40 ml or 1.4 oz Bailey's (or equivalent Irish Cream)
- 1 scoop of vanilla ice-cream.
- Chocolate sauce
- Ice
- Squirty cream (optional)
Instructions:
- Add a handful of ice to a blender or food processor along with all the spirits and ice-cream.
- Blend until the ice has been crushed into very small pieces and then check the consistency to see if it slushy enough for you. If not, then add some more ice.
- Take the chocolate sauce (preferably in a squeezable bottle) and slowly drizzle some around the inside of your glass. It is easier to do this if you use a glass that widens towards the top.
- Pour in the creamy, liquid heaven and finish off with a quick spiral of chocolate sauce or alternatively take it one step further and top with squirty cream and then more chocolate sauce.

How to Make Vodka
Vodka is a neutral spirit that tends not to have a distinctive flavour or taste in its untampered form. Vodka is generally not aged and can be made using a range of accessible materials and ingredients such as potatoes, grains, sugars, fruit and most things that are capable of being fermented. This makes it a spirit that is easy to produce in a relatively short space of time.

What is Vodka Made From?
Vodka has been sipped, downed and applied across the globe for centuries. Originating in Eastern Europe towards the end of the 9th century the name is derived from the Russian word ‘voda’ meaning water. It was primarily used for medicinal purposes and as an ingredient in gun powder during the Middle Ages but during the 14th century became an established drink in Russia and by the middle of the 16th century was recognised as the national drink of Poland and Finland.

London Cocktail Week
London cocktail week was a great opportunity to try out bars and cocktails that you hadn’t yet got around to checking out or test driving and it also provided a perfect excuse (if you needed one) to get out and about a few nights in a row to squeeze in as many £4 discounted drinks as you could in one week!

Raspberry Vodka
I first discovered raspberry vodka a few years back whilst running a pub. It was Absolut Raspberry and as with everything that is new it had an initial surge of popularity that then curbed and evened out. It wasn’t just a flash in the pan; we kept it in stock and a few regulars that drank it with lemonade (that’s 7-up style lemonade). It was also a handy ingredient to use in shooter and cocktail recipes.

Lab Soho
Lab Soho is a lively, friendly cocktail bar with an edge of sticky about the place like it needs a good clean. You could argue that this adds to the character and appeal depending on what you look for in a bar. The cocktail range is vast and they taste fairly decent too but be prepared to wait if it’s busy and potentially then be faced with a glass full of crushed ice.
