With the introduction of Prohibition in the 1920s, a shadowy, underground industry was born with gin the liquor of choice produced by clandestine bootleggers – 100 years on, their spirit lives on at Prohibition Liquor Co on Gilbert Street in the heart of Adelaide’s CBD. Expect to taste a unique range of hand-crafted gins with flavour profiles featuring exotic combinations of traditional ingredients from around the globe along with native Australian botanicals.
Mixologist Kieran Handberg recommends ordering a Cherry Bomb cocktail next time you drop by:
"Bold, bright and unapologetically vibrant, the Cherry Bomb celebrates Prohibition Mum’s gin with a punch of South Australian spirit,” he explains.
"Layered with citrus, a kiss of cherry and a silky finish, this cocktail is as smooth as a Mum’s love.”
Made with gin, lime juice, simple syrup, Aperol and cherry syrup, garnish your creation with dehydrated strawberries and wait for the magic to happen.
Try this cocktail on a Friday afternoon to relax after a long and stressful work week. Alternatively, you could take the party home and concoct the
perfect drink to usher in the weekend.
