Cocktail of the week with Fabroizio Musorella

Golden Dream
Aaah, liqueurs! An essential part of modern mixing, they bring sweetness, colour and flavor to a cocktail. The word liqueur comes from the Latin word Liquefacere, meaning to melt or dissolve. Therefore a liqueur is the result of the liquefying of its ingredients. Fruit, plants, seed, fruit skin or roots are placed in alcohol in a still, heated and the vapours are condensed. When cooled this becomes the aromatic spirit. The other process used to create liqueur is known as maceration and only fruit with pulp are used. Cream liqueurs are a combination of alcohol and dairy cream and Cr?me is a very sweet and thick liqueur. Here’s a classic to try at home. Salute!!

The Cyprus Mail is the only English-language daily newspaper published in Cyprus. It was established in 1945 and today, with its popular and widely-read website, the Cyprus Mail is among the most trusted news sites in Cyprus. The newspaper is not affiliated with any political parties and has always striven to maintain its independence. Over the past 70-plus years, the Cyprus Mail, with a small dedicated team, has covered momentous events in Cyprus’ modern history, chronicling the last gasps of British colonial rule, Cyprus’ truncated independence, the coup and Turkish invasion, and the decades of negotiations to stitch the divided island back together, plus a myriad of scandals, murders, and human interests stories that capture the island and its -people. Observers describe it as politically conservative.
