SUMMER COCKTAILS ARRIVE ON THE MENU AT FOUR SEASONS HOTEL LONDON AT PARK LANE

By: Christian Stan | 18 May, 2015

Ivan Arena, bartender at Four Seasons Hotel London at Park Lane, has created three new cocktails for the summer months, available from May 18, 2015 in Amaranto. The collection includes fruity and refreshing drinks made with ingredients synonymous with a great British summer, perfect for enjoying on Amaranto’s stunning terrace, hidden away in the heart of Mayfair.

 

The Summer Cup is a refreshing mix of classic British summer ingredients. Fresh strawberries and raspberries are muddled with basil before being topped with crushed ice and then mixed with Tanqueray gin, crème de mure, vanilla sugar, lime juice and ginger ale. The drink is finished off in spectacular British style with a Pimms No.1 iced lollipop, perfect for stirring in to the cocktail.

Taking inspiration from the Italian influence in Amaranto, the Italian Job is the classic Italian combination of Aperol and prosecco with a seasonal British summer flavour, elderflower, in the form of St-Germain liqueur. Mint, sugar and grapefruit juice are added to create a thirst-quenching summer special.

Amaranto’s Summery-ta is a floral take on a sunshine classic, the Margarita. Ocho tequila is mixed with hibiscus cordial, peach liqueur and lime juice before being topped with especially made rose foam and served like a martini.

Located in the heart of Mayfair, just steps away from Hyde Park and Knightsbridge, Amaranto Restaurant at Four Seasons Hotel London at Park Lane comprises an elegant dining room, a contemporary glass conservatory seating area overlooking the garden, an intimate private dining room and outdoor dining on the private terrace during the summer months. Amaranto presents a modern Italian cuisine with an innovative combination of classical and traditional dishes, while Amaranto Bar offers a wide range of fine wines and cocktails with a fireside setting.
