Spicy cocktails
Spicy cocktails are all about heat, bite and a little aromatic lift, whether that comes from chilli, pepper, ginger or a warming spiced liqueur. Spicy Fifty pushes the family towards a sharper, spirit-led profile, while Virgin Mary shows how savoury spice can work in a completely non-alcoholic build. In this list, you can compare how the heat is carried, from strong shaken drinks to longer, more mixer-led serves, as well as the base spirit, strength, technique and occasion. Some lean into winter warmth, others into brunch-friendly savoury flavour, but all of them keep the palate awake.
