Hot gin was once heated by red hot pokers, as discovered by Firmdale Hotel’s Group Mixologist, Eoin Kenny, and Sipsmith Master Distiller, Jared Brown. Sipsmith You can check out this gintastic historical recreation at Sipsmith’s London rooftop bar Masterclass sessions on Thursday evenings throughout the event. A hot poker from the fireplace, called a flip-dog, would have been submerged in the drink to caramelize, heat, and froth it all at once. Not to worry, you can put down the fireplace poker—the.

2. The Brandy Flip is a simple, 3-ingredient cocktail with a rich flavour and creamy texture. The very first Flips emerged as early as the late 1600s - they were originally created with a mixture of sugar, eggs and spices being added to a tankard of ale before being heated with a red-hot iron poker from the fire.Now, a Flip commonly refers to a cocktail of fortified wine or spirit and whole egg.
3. Afterward we found out how to prepare it properly. Mulled ale is the same thing. You thrust a red-hot poker into the full glass, and when it creams over, sprinkle in a little nutmeg, sugar and spices.

Last winter, London’s Sipsmith Gin took over the rooftop bar of Soho’s Ham Yard Hotel to celebrate Hot Gin Roof, a pop-up serving delicious hot cocktails with gin at their base. The pop-up also brought the Hot G&T back into the public consciousness (thank you!).

Well guess what? Hot Gin Roof is making a return to this swanky sky-high rooftop for 2018. Come January, Sipsmith will be taking up a month-long residency, with 90-minute gin sessions taking place on the roof every night of the week.

This time around, the Sipsmith team is turning the heat up a notch. Inspired by their findings from the history books, some of the drinks on the menu will be warmed using red hot pokers straight from the fire.

The ‘poking’ technique (oi oi!) sees specially forged bar tools plunged into drinks straight from the fire, causing the cocktail to bubble and steam. The team will be poking G&Ts as well as a porter-based gin cocktail called the Hangman’s Blood – that poke giving the porter an extra caramelised quality.

Like last year, the rooftop will be set up for the winter months with outdoor heaters and cosy blankets (not to mention twinkly lights). And other warming drinks on the menu include a Hot Singapore Sling served with a charred pineapple garnish and a warmed-up take on The Last Word, with gin, green chartreuse and maraschino liqueur. Hot stuff, indeed.

Hot Gin Roof is at the rooftop at Ham Yard Hotel, One Ham Yard, W1D 7DT from Wed Jan 17 to Sun Feb 17. Tickets for 90-minute sessions cost £18 and include a hot G&T and one other cocktail of choice from the menu. Tickets will go on sale in January at www.designmynight.com/hotginroof.

Cold weather calls for hot drinks. So where does that leave cocktail hour?

Thanks to Dave Arnold, The FCI’s Director of Culinary Technology, the L’Ecole is now offering two seasonal drinks, made toasty warm using a very high-tech piece of custom-made equipment. The Red Hot Poker, Dave’s latest technological innovation, is a supercharged take on the loggerhead, a metal rod, commonly used during Colonial times, that was heated to a fiery temperature then plunged into a mix of beer, sugar, and flavorings.

A few New York City bartenders have toyed with the idea of creating small loggerhead setups to use barside, but Dave took things one step further by rigging an electric version capable of reaching temperatures of up to 1600 degrees. The extreme heat of the Red Hot Poker caramelizes sugars in the alcohol and brings out unique flavor notes that can’t be achieved by simply heating a cocktail over a stove. (So don’t try the recipe listed below at home!)

Stop by the bar at L’Ecole this winter to sample a Red Hot Manhattan or Red Hot Ale.
