Award-winning mixologist Julian Short conjures up recipes for lockdown cocktails that can be made from pretty much any booze you have on hand
Quarantini: such a playful word and a recent addition to the global lexicon.
It technically refers to any alcoholic drink enjoyed during quarantine, which is what they call lockdown in some parts of the world. However, thanks to the current booze ban, a more fitting local definition would be a cocktail whipped up from the dregs of your drinks cabinet in desperate times.
