The Wild Geese Gold Cup

June 25, 2014 – With a certain international football tournament (the name of which is trademarked and heavily enforced), underway in Brazil, the folks at The Wild Geese Irish Whiskey have created a special cocktail featuring their Irish whiskey with a South American flair.

2 parts The Wild Geese Classic Blend Whiskey
1/2 part lime juice
1/2 part coconut cream
1/2 part sugar syrup
Basil leaves

Garnish:
1/2 part of blue curaçao
lemon
1 passion fruit shell

Blend a small handful of basil leaves, coconut cream and lime juice together until you have a liquid form. Pour into a cocktail shaker with sugar syrup and The Wild Geese Classic Blend Irish whiskey, then shake hard with ice. Serve in a rocks glass over crushed ice and add a passion fruit shell. Fill the shell with blue curaçao and garnish with the zest of a lemon. Add your nation’s flag to celebrate your team for the final, champion touch.
