How time flies. Can it really be ten years to the week since twinkly-eyed 'twink' Will became the nation’s idol? Young’s career continues to flourish. His album, Echoes, topped the UK charts and there are gigs staged in various English forests - cue Evergreen - to look forward to in June. I reckon William owes me a cocktail in return for all those texts sent to ensure my clearly superior choice beat puppet master Simon’s Pop Idol apparent, Gareth, on the night.
Make it...
Shake 80ml Ketel One vodka and 20 ml St. Germain Elderflower liqueur with ice. Strain into a chilled martini glass. Top with champagne (or prosecco) and add lemon peel float.
Drink it…at Mojobar, Liverpool; Pluto Bar, Stockport; Bon Vivant, Edinburgh; ZTH, Clerkenwell; The Penny Black, Chelsea; Canteen, Canary Wharf and Southbank; or order it from Mr Twinkle himself, Tony Conigliaro at 69 Colebrooke Row, Islington.
