Dew Drop
At Kanon we're all about vodka (clearly), FOKs, and of course, some good fashion (especially this week). And when we need a little cocktail inspiration, sometimes all it takes is talking to our favorite designers. This Fashion Week, we asked five designers to share the inspirations behind their runway collections, which were then transformed by our friends and mixologists over at Apotheke into mouth-watering cocktails. But since we're just a bit biased, we asked an outside party for her honest opinion of the libations. Enter, Jenn Camp, who runs one of our favorite blogs Le Fashion.
Here's what Jenn had to say:
These cocktails are the cherry on top for this New York Fashion Week! I was so excited to hear that Apothéke had collaborated with Kanon Vodka. Nothing makes me happier than when fashion and food come together. Apothéke believes that the "presentation of a cocktail is just as dramatic as the cocktail itself." They are a perfect match for fashion, no? All of the recipes look delicious, but the one I am most interested in is the Red Savage inspired by Katie Gallagher's S/S 2012 collection. Garbanzo beans and ginger? Now this I've got to try!
Check out all of the recipes below and try making them at home:
