RUBENS SIGNATURE COCKTAILS

A curated collection of signature cocktails inspired by British history, tradition, and the spirit of our hotel. From the elegance of the King’s mute swans to the grit of the Industrial Revolution, from the invention of the world’s first underground railway to a tribute to the Palace guards, each creation is crafted to spark curiosity and intrigue. The Swan 20 The King has a prerogative over all unclaimed mute swans in England and Wales. The Swan symbolises grace and beauty and is associated with love, music and poetry. Tanqueray Gin, St-Germain, cucumber, citrus, Lanson Le Black Réserve 1666 Great Fire of London 20 The Great Fire of London was an inferno that swept through the central parts of London in September 1666. The fire engulfed the medieval City of London inside the old Roman city wall. Mezcal Amores Verde, Ancho Reyes Chile Liqueur, citrus, agave, grapefruit INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION 20 The British Industrial Revolution started in the 1760s. Unregulated coal burning darkened skies in Britain’s industrial cities and it was plain for all to see with smoke and ash being a regular daily sight. Buffalo Trace Bourbon, Rittenhouse Rye, Pedro Ximénez, smoke The Seventh Duchess of Bedford 20 Around 1840, Anna the 7th Duchess of Bedford is said to have complained of “having that sinking feeling” during the late afternoon. The solution was a pot of tea and a light snack, taken privately in her boudoir. This is how the British Afternoon Tea Tradition began. Grey Goose Orange Vodka, Cointreau, Rubens lemon curd, Earl Grey tea, citrus RED BUBBLES 20 Inspired by the deep crimson glow of the New York Bar and the effervescent energy of a busy evening, this cocktail blends Tanqueray No. Ten gin and Cointreau with vibrant blood orange and lemon, crowned with Lanson Le Black Réserve Champagne for a sparkling finish. Tanqueray 10 Gin, Cointreau, blood orange, lemon, sugar, Lanson Le Black Réserve
