Even when they're off duty our favourite bartenders like to mix up something special for friends and family Adrian Michalcik
Global Winner World Class Bartender of the Year 2022 and Bar Manager, Pier 42, Oslo “This is a warm, comforting, hug-in-amug type of drink that I prepare for my friends and family in the days leading up to Christmas. The recipe is for one serving, but is easy enough to multiply. I recommend preparing at least 10 portions since it is delicious and meant to be enjoyed with your closest ones.”
