Aloe Toddy | Cocktail Party

Aloe Toddy

The Aloe Toddy is a recipe from the Chareau company, makers of the most recognizable brand of aloe liqueur. We didn’t really know what we were in for this one; “hot aloe” is not a flavor profile we could easily simulate in our minds.

The original recipe from Chareau called for either green or peppermint tea, and we tried it both ways. The mint tea version was all wrong: the collision between the two main flavors lent almost a burnt, muddy note that did no justice to either ingredient.

Then we tried the green tea version, and epiphany struck! With green tea, the drink is a lovely thing – fragrant, sweet, almost candy-like without being cloying.

Ingredients

Instructions

Brew up a mugful of green tea, leaving a bit of space in the cup for the remaining ingredients. Add the aloe liqueur, honey, and lemon juice, and stir gently to combine. Garnish with a bouquet of fresh mint and a lemon wedge.

Gut mit Luft nach oben

Ich war auf der Suche nach einer Cocktail Datenbank mit der ich mir zuverlässig die Drinks anzeigen lassen kann, für die ich auch die Zutaten im Hause habe. Mit Cocktail Flow klappt das leider nicht verlässlich. Dieses Programm macht das vorbildlich und vor allem listet es die Cocktails auch danach auf, wo mir noch eine, zwei usw. Zutaten fehlt. So kann ich auch immer schauen was ich mir ggf. noch kaufen sollte. Die Auswahl an Getränken ist gut, jedoch mit wenig Sirup-haltigen. Hier würd ich mir mehr Rezepte wünschen wo man die div. Fruchtsirupe einsetzen kann. Auch gibt es leider keine Möglichkeit Cocktails als Favoriten zu kennzeichnen oder das Rezept zu exportieren. Da das Programm nur in Englisch ist muss man in der Zutatenliste manchmal googlen was damit gemeint ist. Mit ein paar Rezepten mehr, Favoritenfunktion und Lokalisierung gibt es fünf Sterne.
Translation: I was looking for a cocktail database with which I can reliably display the drinks for which I also have the ingredients in the house. Unfortunately, this does not work reliably with cocktail flow. This program does the exemplary and above all it lists the cocktails also after, where I still missing one, two etc. ingredients. So I can always look what I should possibly buy. The selection of drinks is good, but with little syrup-containing. Here I would want more recipes where you can use the div. Fruit syrups. Unfortunately, there is no way to mark cocktails as favorites or to export the recipe. Since the program is only in English you have to googling in the list of ingredients sometimes what is meant by that. With a few more recipes, favorites and localization, there are five stars.
