The St‑Germain Runway
Twice a year, Fashion Month captivates the world (and the internet), and we discover fresh trends and draw inspiration for our own personal style. Staying in step with the elevation in your wardrobe, St‑Germain is here to help you spritz up your sips.
Here are a few of our favourite fashion trends right now and the St‑Germain cocktails that best match each vibe.
Ribbons and Bows Galore
Ribbons and bows are a fun touch that have made their way into so many of our closets. Just like these timeless accessories, the St‑Germain Flower Drop is a cocktail staple that adds a pop of freshness and charm to your drink lineup. With floral notes, a touch of sweetness, and bubbly flair, the Flower Drop is just as versatile as your favorite bows.
INGREDIENTS
• 1 oz/30 ml St‑Germain elderflower liqueur
• 1 ½ oz/45 ml Grey Goose Vodka
• ¾ oz/22 ml Fresh Lemon Juice
• ½ oz/15 ml Simple Syrup
DIRECTIONS
1. Pour the St‑Germain, vodka, freshly squeezed lemon juice and sugar syrup into a cocktail shaker.
2. Add ice to the shaker and shake vigorously until the drink is nicely chilled.
3. Fine strain the drink into a chilled coupette glass.
4. Gently twist a lemon peel over to the drink to release the oil and discard. Then garnish with edible flowers (optional).
Seeing Red
Pops of red are making a statement this year. Red accessories beautifully add a dash of color to complete your outfit and bring a new twist. Our favorite red accessory? A St‑Germain Frenchie Negroni. With its vibrant red hue and balanced bitterness, the Frenchie Negroni makes a statement adding parisian flair to every sip.
INGREDIENTS
• 3/4 oz/22 ml St‑Germain
• 3/4 oz/22 ml Martini Riserva Speciale Bitter
• 3/4 oz/22 ml Martini® Rosso Sweet Vermouth
• 3/4 oz/22 ml Bombay® Sapphire Gin
• Orange Twist
DIRECTIONS
1. Add ice into a mixing glass.
2. Pour in all of the ingredients.
3. Stir until it’s perfectly diluted and chilled.
4. Pour over ice in a rocks glass.
5. Garnish with an orange twist.
The Simple, Chic Skirt
Skirts were put on the back burner for a few years as pants took center stage. This year, long, straight skirts are making the comeback they deserve and are here to stay. The fresh vibe of a long skirt pairs perfectly with a St‑Germain Royale. Just as a skirt offers a graceful flow, the Royale is classic and subtly luxe.
INGREDIENTS
• 3/4 oz/22 ml St‑Germain
• 5-6 oz/150-180 ml Champagne
• Blackberry to Garnish
DIRECTIONS
1. Pour St‑Germain into a chilled Champagne glass.
2. Top with Champagne.
3. Give the drink a quick stir.
4. Garnish with a blackberry by placing on the rim of the glass.
Ballet Flats>Heels
Speaking of comebacks, ballet flats are back, too. And they’re not going anywhere, anytime soon. A light and refreshing cocktail like the St‑Germain Spritz pairs perfectly with the elegant yet casual vibe of flats.
INGREDIENTS
• 1/2 oz/45 ml St‑Germain
• 2 oz/60 ml Martini Prosecco
• 2 oz/60 ml Soda Water
• Lemon Twist
• Edible Flowers
DIRECTIONS
1. Pour St‑Germain over ice into your glass.
2. Top with prosecco and soda water.
3. Give the drink a good stir.
4. Gently twist a lemon peel on top of your drink and add edible flowers (optional).
