BOLS FOAMS NOW IN IRELAND

During a training sesison in Dundalk last week I spotted what I thought were quite dinky minitaure bottles of Bols liqueurs only to discover that they were actually Bols Foams.

Available in the following flavours:-

BLUE CURACAO
BANANA
CREME DE CASSIS
AMARETTO
CREME DE MENTHE GREEN
CREME DE CACAO WHITE

You can get them from Barry and Fitzwilliam 021-4320900 or 01-6671755

I used a couple of them and found them easy to use, the foam lasted ages and tasted great. My only drawback would be the selection of flavours avilable. But if they take off, I am sure they will work on other flavours.

Oh and because of the small amount that comes out with each pump, covering the top of a martini cocktail takes a little time.

Keep your drinks in champagne flutes and highballs for now :-)  but definitely worth a trial!!!!!!

Catex 2011 - Food Solutions

Here is Richard from Food Solutions talking about the Monin Syrup range and their coffee ILLY which for me is the best espresso to get you started in the morning!!

As well as supplying these two great brands to the trade they also have the John Artis range of crockery and glassware and bar equipment.

So if you are wondering where to get coupettes and unusual sling glasses then these guys are your first port of call!!! Sadly they have stopped selling the the silver shakers!! :-(

You can also get the full range of syrups from Classic Drinks 021-4510066

Get your hands on the Gingerbread syrup, it is amazing in a Daiquiri or a Latte!
