 Alexander & James Mixologist-at-Home Event





I was recently invited to prepare some canapes for an event hosted by Alexander & James.

My task was to create six different canapes to be paired with six different cocktails. here is the list.

Daiquiri - Mozzarella Arancini  

'the zinginess of the lime will balance out the richness of the Arancini'


 Vesper - Tomato & Feta Tartlet 

'tomato is a classic pairing with the vodka, while the feta compliments a satisfying saltiness'


Old - fashioned - Oven- smoked Figs Wrapped In Prosciutto 

'smokey, sweet & salty notes. perfect combo.'


Negroni - Manchego Cheese w/ Quince & Orange Jelly 

'the second vegitarian option which pairs tidily the two orange elements.'


Margarita - Prawn & Squash Empanades 

'a take on the classic mexican pasty. Pairs naturally with the Tequila and Lime.'
