To celebrate London Cocktail Week, we tell you what, where and how to drink and make cocktails in London
Prepare to savour your last flamed mandarin-peel twist and inhale your final lavender-infused earl-grey gin foam, because, dear reader, we’re almost at the end of London Cocktail Week.

We hope they inspire you to get making, experimenting and exploring some of the exquisite examples below – or at the very least to get a bit more imaginative with your drinks options tonight after work.
