There’s a delicious new Irish cocktail for you to try out…

Want to put your cocktail making skills to the test? Or maybe you want to try a delicious new drink on your next night out with the girls?

There’s a brand new award-winning Irish cocktail that you NEED to try.

That brand new tasty beverage is called Cloud 9, created by Irish bartender Aaron Mulligan. Aaron recently placed in the Top 5 in the GLOBAL Hennessy My Way cocktail competition for this creation, so it comes very highly recommended.

As well as being an Irish creation, Hennessy Cognac was also founded by an Irishman back in the late 1700s, and today the round and robust flavours of Hennessy V.S make it very versatile and ideal for various cocktails, from classic recipes and sophisticated cocktail creations to simple mixed drinks.

Cloud 9 is available at The Claremont, but it’s also super easy to make at home.

With that in mind, here are the ingredients you’ll need to make a single serve of this award-winning Irish cocktail:

  • 40 ml of Hennessy VSOP
  • 20 ml of Pedro Ximenez Amaro Coffee
  • 2 dashes of orange bitters
  • Lemon peel to garnish

We recently caught up with Irish rapper Mango and he tried out this delicious new serve. As well as sipping on delicious-looking cocktails, he also chats about the artists he loved growing up, his latest single ‘Vibes’ and the incredible new playlist he created for Hennessy.

From gangster rap to salsa music and everything in between, it’s an eclectic mix of everything he’s enjoying at the moment, and you can check out the full playlist here.

You can watch the full interview with Mango below.
