HAPS FLIP COCKTAIL Recipe / Rezept

The Haps Flip is a cocktail from the GDR. A country that has not existed since 1990. The cocktail comes from the TV show HAPS from the TV studio in Rostock and was actually made to promote a blender. Unfortunately, there weren’t that many cocktail ingredients in the GDR and what was available was used. The result was probably the most disgusting cocktail in the world. Nowadays there are many delicious cocktails from Rostock – please just watch to my YouTube channel and subscribe.

Der Haps Flip ist ein Cocktail aus der DDR. Einem Land, welches schon seit 1990 nicht mehr existiert. Der Cocktail stammt aus der Fernsehsendung HAPS (Haushalts-Allerlei praktisch serviert) aus dem Fernsehstudio in Rostock und wurde eigentlich zur Bewerbung eines Mixers hergestellt. Leider gab es in der DDR nicht so viele Cocktailzutaten und es wurde genommen, was da war. Dabei kam der wahrscheinlich ekligste Cocktail der Welt heraus. Heutzutage gibt es viele leckere Cocktails aus Rostock – dazu einfach auf meinen YouTube-Kanal gehen und bitte abonnieren.

CUCUMBER SLING @ 2 Brothers Bar Santorini

This time I was at 2 Brothers Bar Santorini / Greece. Bartender Xristos prepared the wonderful Cucumber Sling cocktail there. The 2 Brothers Bar Santorini is located in the beautiful Greek Island of Santorini, Two Brothers Bar first opened its doors in March 1983 as you guess it, by two brothers – Dimitris and Giannis. The tradition continues with the original owners sons Jack and Leuteris now running the show. From its humble beginings back then, the bar has grown to become an island favourite for visiting tourists and locals alike.

NOTES

The special taste of the Cucumber Sling comes from the fresh cucumber juice and the Mastiha. Mastiha is a sweet liqueur produced with the mastikha resin from the Greek island of Chios. It has a distinctive flavor, reminiscent of pine and herbs. It is claimed to have medicinal properties and to aid digestion.
