Five Cocktails Inspired by the Music Icon Prince
William Grant & Sons whipped up tribute drinks at this year's Tales of the Cocktail
by Emily Arden Wells
This year we lost legends. David Bowie and Prince both passed in the early months of 2016, two musicians who changed the music industry intrinsically and influenced generations of people with their work. In the days and even months following their deaths, tributes flooded in: performances on award shows, speeches, dedicated television specials, and the outpouring of personal stories shared online and on social media. Strangely, a new tribute trend popped up on the internet this year: tribute cocktails. Bartenders took to Instagram to share photos and recipes of their liquid dedications, aptly named for their favorite songs. And while naming cocktails after song titles and lyrics has been happening for years, suddenly these drinks began to embody the fallen artist they were meant to honor—an ingestible memorial.
For a culture that worships our food by taking copious photos, waiting in line for hours at the newest hot-spot, and paying large sums for meals at Michelin-starred restaurants, somehow this all makes sense. We now choose to honor our legends by sipping them. And without missing a beat, William Grant & Sons hosted a tribute "Spirited Dinner" to Bowie and Prince during Tales of the Cocktail, the New Orleans cocktail festival held every year in July. The dinner featured Bowie inspired dishes and Prince inspired cocktails created by Gina Chersevani of Buffalo & Bergen in Washington D.C. Here are all five of the drinks in their Purple Glory.
Dearly Beloved
The first cocktail of the night, Dearly Beloved, was light and refreshing—a Hendrick’s Gin cocktail with sesame, cucumber, lemon, and wasabi-rice wine vinegar. The side of the glass was covered in toasted sesame seeds, a nice crunchy element that complemented the flavors of sesame and wasabi in the cocktail itself. This is a perfect summer drink to make every weekend and enjoy surrounded by friends and family. You don’t have to tell them that your "Dearly Beloved" is this cocktail (we won’t).
2 parts Hendrick’s Gin washed with toasted white sesame
2 parts cucumber water
1 part wasabi-rice wine vinegar
In a shaker tin combine the ingredients, strain into a sesame rimmed Collins glass and top with a touch of sparkling water.
Diamonds and Pearls
The next cocktail was a wildly creative one, inspired by the song "Diamonds and Pearls" and made with Milagro Tequila, anise and almond-simple milk, fresh lime juice, and rimmed with almond salt. Normally, cocktails with nut flavors are prepared with heavily sweet orgeat syrups, but the almond-simple milk was light and delicate, the "pearl" to accompany the bright and vegetal flavors of the "diamond"—the tequila.
2 parts Milagro Tequila
1 part anise and almond-simple milk
1 part lime juice
Combine ingredients in a shaker tin, then double strain over fresh ice in almond salt rimmed double rocks glass.
Let's Go Crazy
The third course was a favorite of the evening: a corn water cocktail made with Reyka Vodka, cilantro-ginger simple, and a few drops of chili oil. This cocktail was essentially a liquid tamale—sweet, spicy and savory—and the drops of chili oil allowed you to control the heat, and the craziness.
2 parts Reyka Vodka
1 part Corn water
.5 part cilantro-ginger simple syrup
Garnish with 3 drops chili oil
In a shaker tin combine the ingredients, double strained Chilled coupe glass, then dot the chili oil.
Purple Rain
It wouldn’t be a Prince tribute without Purple Rain—and this cocktail was the most theatrical of them all. Wine glasses were filled with a cocktail of toasted sunflower-washed Hendrick’s Gin, Crème de Violet, and lemon juice, and were then topped with an edible purple potato leaf and a few drops of the purple hued cocktail. Guests then topped off the cocktail with champagne, letting it rain.
2 parts Hendrick’s Gin washed with toasted sunflowers
1 part Creme de Violet
In a shaker tin, combine Hendrick's Gin, Creme de Violet and lemon, shake and strain into chilled wine glass. Take a purple potato leaf and lay across top of the glass, and with an eye dropper place a few drops of cocktail on the leaf so that the drops rain into the glass as it being served.
Quite appropriately, the dessert course was Cream—a bittersweet cocktail made with Sailor Jerry rum, cold brewed coffee, and sweetened with fig paste and condensed milk. This cocktail was decadent and defiant, just the way Prince would have liked it.
2 parts Sailor Jerry
1 tsp fig paste
1 tsp condensed milk
4 parts cold brewed coffee
In a shaker tin, combine all ingredient, hard shake and double strain over fresh ice, serve immediately.

Purple Rain, Purple Rain Cocktail
Purple Rain, Purple Rain Cocktail
Last Thursday we lost a legend, a musical genius – a true icon. In honor of Prince, Twist Cocktails is keeping his memory alive with our version of a specialty boozy beverage called the Purple Rain Cocktail. This cocktail is great for an afternoon pool party or a late night cocktail & appetizer reception. If you’re a Prince fan like we are, turn up the Revolution and get to mixing!
Purple Rain Cocktail: (makes two drinks)
3 ounces of Viniq Purple Shimmery Liqueur OR 3 ounces of regular Vodka, a 1/2 ounce of Blue Curacao & a splash of Grenadine
3 ounces of Lemonade, Sprite or Club Soda
Pour 1/4 cup of sugar on a flat plate. Rim your glasses with a lemon wedge and dip into sugar, set aside. In an ice filled shaker, pour your liquids in and shake well. Put fresh ice into glasses, pour cocktails and garnish with cherries, a la Under the Cherry Moon – starring and directed by Prince in 1986.
Prince’s favorite cocktail was called The Kid, named after his character in Purple Rain. It has Gin, cranberry juice, Blue Curacao, sweet & sour mix & soda water.

Try a Prince William & Kate Middleton-Inspired Cocktail
Here on this side of the pond, royal watchers will celebrate the big wedding of Kate Middleton and Prince William early – taking in the festivities in the wee morning hours.
But after all the tea has been sipped and scones nibbled, revelers may want to toast the happy couple with a cocktail – and one English spirit company has got just the recipe.
Mixologist Dan Warner of Beefeater, the iconic British liquor brand that adorns their bottles with exact replicas of the Beefeaters who guard the Tower of London, tells PEOPLE he created his special Royal Punch with the bride and groom-to-be in mind.
“Of course I thought first and foremost of the happy couple when creating it,” he says of the recipe. “Drinking punch represents a tradition that is long associated with celebrating royal events.”
“As of late, punch has also resurfaced as a modern and trendy drink du jour, and it caters very well to large groups,” he adds. “It’s perfect for a viewing party for loyal royal followers in the U.K. and those in the U.S. who want to celebrate with a decidedly English bent.”
Want to make the drink yourself? Here’s the recipe:
Beefeater Royal Punch
• 2 parts Beefeater London Dry Gin
• 1 part Dubonnet (This is a nod to the Queen Mum, who “was known to enjoy gin and Dubonnet as an apertif,” notes Warner)
• 1 part pomegranate juice (“It represents marriage.”)
• 2 parts fresh lemonade (American style)
• Angostura bitters to taste
Serve in a large punch bowl (or a large, deep casserole dish) and garnish with wheels of lemon and lime, mint sprigs and pomegranate seeds.
Chill the punch with lots of regular ice cubes or make your own fruit ice cubes by freezing orange and lemon slices with water in a plastic container (ice cream tub or similar).

Prince Harry Cocktail Recipe
This delicious and intense cocktail—a distant cousin of the Dark and Stormy—is tangy and much less sweet than you'd expect, with a brooding background of ginger root lurking just behind the richness of rum. You can thin it out more with ginger beer if you like, but we enjoy this drink nearly straight up, with just a little fizz to lighten.
Fresh lime juice is essential here; don't buy the bottled stuff. We used Coruba rum, but Brugal and Goslings would work as well.
Recipe from Michael Neff of Ward III in NYC.

- Active time: 4 minutes
- Total time: 4 minutes
Ingredients

[Update] Cocktail Prince announced a slew of new characters who will be joining the popular cocktail video game. The characters look awesome and are totally emblematic of the cocktails they represent. Here are a few of them:
Side Car is a sort of hipster looking boy based on the brandy-based cocktail, which makes sense given the drinks sleak and obscure blend of Cointreau and Cognac. Brandy cocktails themselves are certainly more obscure than their vodka- and whiskey-based counterparts.
Gimlet is a man with a sweater wrapped around him looking like a regular at a bougie tennis club, aptly representing the classy gin and lime libation.
Screwdriver
The Screwdriver cocktail was believed to have risen to popularity thanks to the working stiffs who enjoyed it after a hard day's work. Screwdriver looks like a hard worker, himself. Rocking a classic white tee and jeans, Screwdriver looks like a guy who gets his hands dirty.
Bellini is a laid back female character in a hoody, fun striped socks and crocs who looks as fun as the brunch cocktail she is named after.
Long Island Iced Tea
Long Island Iced Tea is a trendy-looking man in a trench coat who looks well put together, sort of the opposite of how you would look after a few of the cocktails he's based on.
Kamikaze is a rough-around-the-edges character, who looks like he's no stranger to trouble -- a tendency he shares with the Kamikaze shot.
Perhaps a trendier version of the Long Island Iced Tea character, Manhattan looks like a cool city-goer himself. He rocks purple hair with a pink streak and looks as sleak as New York's favorite borough.
Cocktail Prince, an upcoming bar-themed, anime-styled mobile game from Japan, challenges players to manage a bar and complete bartending training mini-games. In the weeks leading up to the game’s release this fall, developer Geechs has been announcing a range of characters inspired by different mixed drinks.
In Cocktail Ōji, the gamer takes the role of an heiress to a rundown bar, who hires six bartending “princes”—all personified cocktails—to help her revive business. As Anime News Network puts it, these suitors also offer her the chance to “drink her way to love” (much like The Bachelorette). The developer even released a music video featuring the game’s theme song, titled “Making Love!!” (We’re still not sure if there’s any singing about cocktails in there. A buddy in Japan could only make out a few generic phrases like “I will get strong for you” and “I will give you a deep tour / Let’s go!”).
The protagonist’s primary love interests are Tom Collins, Salty Dog, Martini, Tequila Sunrise, Moulin Rouge and Emerald Mist. However, they’re just the tip of the character roster iceberg, which also includes interesting additions like the twins Caipirinha and Caipiroska, and the cross-dressing Pink Lady. Character personalities even correspond vaguely to their eponymous cocktails. The friendly, energetic Tequila Sunrise, for instance, is described as a “die-hard athlete with a mind for good service” (though we can’t say we’ve ever been inspired to good service by tequila). Meanwhile, the prideful Martini ”basically treats everyone with a condescending attitude and has absolute confidence in himself” (that one seems about right).
Game-makers hope the game’s success will help launch a manga tie-in, as well as merchandise and possibly a full anime series. It’s unclear yet if Cocktail Ōji will make it to American shores, but given Nintendo’s fantastical profit on Pokémon GO and plenty of real world cocktail bars cashing in on that game too, the U.S. mobile market seems well primed for Cocktail Ōji’s particular blend of anime, gaming and cocktails.
