So far, the 2014 summer of sport hasn’t exactly gone to
plan.

| Three little bottles; 'Rare', 'Limited Edition' & 'Single Malt' |
First the England team crash out of the world cup, then Mr.
Personality himself Andy Murray leaves Wimbledon just a tad earlier than
planned....
Never fear though my friends; where there is no patriotic
excuse to sit in front of the TV, there is still plenty of World Cup fever and
tennis excitement to inspire a cheeky drink or two, and what better ingredient
than Irish Whiskey?! Designed especially for the 2014 World Cup, the
lovely people of Wild Geese Whiskey have sent us this bespoke cocktail, which combines
the smooth taste of The Wild Geese Irish Whiskey with the exotic flavours of
Brazil!
You can pick up the tasty Wild Geese Rare Irish Whiskey for £33.15 at The Whisky Exchange, or you can even buy the three bottle gift set for £16.85.

Ingredients
2 parts The
Wild Geese Classic Blend Whiskey
1/2 part of
lime juice
1/2 part
coconut cream
1/2 part
sugar syrup
Garnish
lemon
1/2 part of
blue curaçao
passion fruit
shell
Method
Blend a small
handful of basil leaves, coconut cream and lime juice together until you have a
liquid form. Pour into a cocktail shaker with sugar syrup and The Wild Geese
Classic Blend Irish whiskey then shake hard with ice.
Serve in a
rocks glass over crushed ice and add a passion fruit shell. Fill the shell with
blue curaçao and garnish with the zest of a lemon. Add your nation's flag to
celebrate your team for the final, champion touch.
The
combination of the triple citrus notes (orange, lime and lemon) with the
coolness of the basil leaves make this a super refreshing cocktail with a mild
and creamy, sweet finish.
