Just over a week ago I headed over to the best new hotspot in Tooting, Brick & Liquor. A few nibbles and just one drink soon turned into trying out a few too many from their brand new cocktail menu, which was released the day we visited.
We started off with a Clover Club, Vanilla-infused gin, lemon juice, egg white & homemade raspberry syrup, typical of my usual drink of choice, sweet and fruity. 
We then nibbled on their Carnivore Platter, all elements bursting with flavour as the next. Teriyaki Steak Skewers, Chicken Lollipops, Pincho Moruno Lamb and Rum & Coke Ribs, served with our home roasted focaccia and our Brick & Liquor dips. One word. YUM. The focaccia and rum and coke ribs where the highlights of the platter, and are making my mouth water just thinking about them.
In celebration of their new menu, we were then asked behind the bar to make a cocktail of our choice. I went for the Deconstruct-Reconstruct, a cocktail very similar to a Bramble, A deconstructed cocktail with Beefeater gin, lemon, sugar, egg white & Crème de Mure. It was absolutely delicious, but be careful as gets stronger as you drink it, with a mini beefeater gin bottle hung upside down, slowly seeping into the drink as you slurp through.
Finally, we saw off the night with a Ninety 9. Bring back those childhood memories with Absolut vodka, apple, vanilla liqueur,& vanilla foam. They top it off with some whipped cream and a wafer, so it looks just like a 99!
A 10/10 experience! I'll be back, and will be the first in line to the opening of their second bar opening in Clapham this Summer!
