Recipe: Bathgate to L.A. cocktail
The four-day Glasgow Cocktail Weekend has announced their 2019 dates by paying tribute to Scottish singer, Lewis Capaldi, who popped in unexpectedly to try it and said it: “hits you in the face.”
The Lewis Capaldi-inspired drink named Bathgate to L.A. has been exclusively created by mixologists from So L.A. on Mitchell St and is a sweet fusion of freshly muddled Japanese ginger, craft Roku gin, and a delicious lychee liqueur to offer a taste to what to expect from the 2019 Glasgow Cocktail Weekend.
