Chivas Cobbler: For those of us pining for pineapple…
1 ½ oz. Chivas Regal 12 yo
1 tbsp. chopped pineapple
1 oz. Orange Juice
¼ oz. Lemon Juice
1 tbsp. Vanilla Sugar
Muddle pineapple and vanilla sugar in a highball glass. Add the remaining ingredients and stir with ice. Garnish with a pineapple leaf and pretend you’re in the tropics!
American Rose: Peach and Champagne? Yes, please!
1 ½ parts Brandy
1/8 part Homemade Grenadine
½ Peach (peeled and mashed)
1/8 part Pernod Absinthe
Champagne to Top
Shake ingredients (excluding Champagne) and strain into a chilled coupe glass. Top with champagne. Garnish with a peach slice.

Still have about 25 inch of snow here in Sweden, but the sun is starting to show it self more and more for each day, so maybe the spring is coming
I think I make both Chivas Cobbler and American Rose to get into the summer feeling
