Slug & Lettuce Marlow Introduces Carnival Cocktails

The country is buzzing with anticipation for the World Cup and the Slug and Lettuce bar team in Marlow have embraced the spirit of Brazil by presenting a selection of exotic drinks for summer – the Carnival Cocktails – which will be introduced on Wednesday 7^th May.

“Our carnival cocktails range is colourful and fun, inspired by the culture of South America, ” said Nicola Stuart, marketing manager at Stonegate Pub Company.  “We will be featuring six new drinks including classics with a twist such as the Cuba Libre – a blend of Havana Club aged 3 years; lime; sugar and Coca-Cola, served in a tin. Guests can also enjoy the classic Caipirinha, but with the option of adding morango (strawberry) or maracujá (passion fruit) for a fruiter flavour.”

Savour the Copacabana Crush, a concoction of Disaronno; Midori melon liqueur; lime and cranberry juice, try the creamy Soleros – a blend of Passoã passion fruit liqueur; Midori melon liqueur; Absolut Vanilia; orange and pineapple juice; milk and cream or sip on the fiery Blue Brazil Zombie – a mix of Havana Club aged 3 years; blue Curaçao; pineapple juice and Schweppes lemonade, served in a zombie glass.

Nicola added: “In addition to the cocktails, the menu also features a new shot – the Friendly Cashew, a traditional Brazilian favourite. First, chew a cashew and then cleanse your pallet with the smooth Sagatiba Cachaça.”

To complement the new drinks choice, the food team at the Slug and Lettuce have created a Street Food Platter, presenting guests with an appetizing mix of exquisite choices including char-grilled chimichurri-glazed churrasco skewers such as steak, king prawn, chicken breast and spicy sausage; croquettes, potato wedges, artisan bread and a selection of sauces.
