Viering | Cocktail Party

Viering

We’re in love with the malty, funky flavors of genever – but until recently there weren’t many cocktails that took full advantage of its old-world character.

Enter the Viering, a creation of New York City bartender Eryn Reece. Reece named it for the Dutch word for “celebration,” and the name fits – it’s a wonderful tribute to the Netherlands’ best spirit.

Reece doesn’t specify oude-style or jonge-style genever, but it’s fantastic both ways. She does, however, call for Carpano Antica for the sweet vermouth – its complex, flavorful blend of herbs and spices gives it the backbone to stand up the syrupy, rich flavors of Cherry Heering, a classic Danish cherry brandy.

Far superior to any other cocktail app

I have only been using the app for a short time but already I can tell that it is far superior to any other cocktail app I have used until now. The user interface is easy to use and visually appealing, and the search function displays recipes as you type which will make this app easy and fast to use. Highly recommended for use as a bartender or server, or at home making drinks for a party or night in. The developer also promises recipes added regularly and the customer support is second to none.
