Here’s my easy guide to hosting New Year’s eve for you and a few friends! Make yourself The Smoking Honey Hive to ease you into it whilst you batch up the following two cocktails. The batched Bourbon Strawberry Iced Tea recipe below makes a smidge over 1L / 8-10 cocktails (which is double what I made in the video) and the Bottled Manhattan makes 1.2L / 9 cocktails. I mentioned that it was the same recipe from Dave Arnold’s Liquid Intelligence but it’s ever so slightly different. I used a 2:1 ratio but Dave’s recipe is made a little different purely for convenience (3 x 750ml rye whiskey bottles + 1 x 1L sweet vermouth bottle).
