22 November, 2013 by Rose Kuruvilla

A popular cocktail served at weddings, the ‘Pimm’s cup’ makes it as our cocktail of the week.

There are many versions of Pimm’s Cup. This is my version:

Ingredients

2 Highball glasses

2 oz Pimm’s No. 1

5 oz 7Up/Soda

1 twist of lemon

1 twist of cucumber peel

Lemon slices

Strawberry slices

Orange slices

Handful of mint leaves

Hard ice cubes

Method:

Pour Pimm’s over ice cubes in a large highball glass. Fill glass with 7Up/Soda. Add twist of lemon, twist of cucumber peel, lemon slices, strawberry slices, orange slices and stir. Garnish with a sprig of mint.

Alternatives

Add berries like blueberry and raspberry for a sweeter Pimm’s cup.

Half a teaspoon of Eldeflower syrup can be added to give the Pimm’s cup a distinct taste.

Serve this cocktail in different glasses for a cool modern twist. Mason jars are a popular choice for events.

Ku De Ta – simply inspiring!

31 May, 2013 by Rose Kuruvilla

My father came to visit and I decided to give him a taste of Singapore that I love. I took him to my all time favourite place in Singapore – Ku De Ta at Marina Bay Sands. Ku De Ta at Marina Bay Sands is well known for its 360-degree panoramic view of the City’s skyline and Straits of Singapore.

Whilst the view is simply breathtaking, I really love this place more for its famed cocktails designed by Ku De Ta’s own team of mixologist. You’ll never see names like Cosmopolitan or a Mojito on the menu. Instead you get names like Blushing Baby, Tony Stark’s Pepper and Lady Be Mine. I love their inventions and the witty names they come up with. Unlike many other cocktail bars, the cocktails are not diluted or weak. The strength is just right. If you visit Ku De Ta often, you’ll find the cocktail menu changes. They once had a cocktail called ‘Mini Me’ (a drink  inspired by Austin Powers) and it featured a lychee fruit in a shot glass half filled with lychee liquer! How adorable!

These cocktail concepts inspire me to create a signature style in everything I do. In styling events, my style is to lead not follow, invent not copy, and inspire not imitate. It is ok to be inspired by amazing things people come up with, but find your own style in that inspiration and create something out of it. As John Cage said ‘I can’t understand why people are frightened of new ideas. I’m frightened of the old ones.’

So readers, as it’s Friday and the weekend is just a day away – dream a little and have a great weekend.
