Abril Ramirez: “If my first love were a cocktail, it would be a “Ramona Flowers”

We have interviewed bartenders all over the world, among which, Abril Ramirez from Kitchen 515 bar, tells us how her Ramona Flowers cocktail relates to her first love. Read all here.

 

If my first love were a cocktail, it would be a Ramona Flowers”

My first true love was full of passion and it was also pure, kind, respectful, and gentle. A vivid memory of this love is that she was extremely thoughtful and romantic. She always surprised me with countless beautiful bouquets of flowers to the point where our home was always full of flowers, especially during the summertime. So, I dedicate this cocktail to my dear friend Morgan, who to this day continues to always give love to everyone in a way that is beyond my comprehension. This cocktail is the closest I could come to putting all the love we shared into a glass.
