A fantastic way to drink our delicious range of sparkling meads is by combining them with your other favourite flavours to create fabulous sparkling mead cocktails!
We’ve tried a lot of different combinations, but nothing has come close to those created by the team at The Clockwork Rose in Bristol.
If you’re lucky enough to have been to the Clockwork Rose before, you might have heard about the mysterious Captain and his tales of the ocean.
Or, more likely, you’ll have sipped your way through their carefully curated cocktail list whilst admiring the fantastic decor!
The mixologists at the Clockwork Rose have been kind enough to pass on some sparkling mead cocktail recipes to us and even gave us permission to share them with you!
