Introducing the ‘Castle Garden’ Cocktail Inspired by the Met Gala

As the Met Gala approaches, fashion enthusiasts are gearing up for the event of the year. This year, The Macallan and The Mark Hotel have collaborated to introduce a special cocktail, the ‘Castle Garden,’ inspired by the Met Gala theme ‘Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion.’

The ‘Castle Garden’ cocktail is a sensory delight that encapsulates the essence of time and nature. Crafted with The Macallan Double Cask 12 Years Old whisky, Jean-Luc Pasquet Pineau des Charentes, honey syrup, lemon juice, and topped with Brut sparkling wine, this cocktail offers a blend of flavors that symbolize rebirth and renewal.

Each element in the ‘Castle Garden’ cocktail contributes to a unique experience. The smoothness of The Macallan whisky, the sweetness of Pineau des Charentes, the brightness of lemon, and the effervescence of sparkling wine create a harmonious balance of flavors. The garnish of baby’s breath adds a touch of elegance, representing the beauty and resilience of nature.

After the Met Gala, the ‘Castle Garden’ cocktail will be exclusively available at The Mark Lobby Bar, offering a taste of luxury to attendees. However, for those watching the event from home, the recipe allows for a taste of the glamour. By following the simple steps and gathering the ingredients, anyone can enjoy the ‘Castle Garden’ cocktail while witnessing the red carpet extravaganza.
