Diamond Stash Speakeasy 2!

Few weeks ago it was time for Ravintolapäivä once again. I was hosting a cocktail party"Diamond Stash Speakeasy" at my atelier. I was so glad that so many people came, especially many of my dear friends and customers. Unfortunately i didn't really have time to chat because i was mixing drinks all the time...
Photos were taken by Ville Kekäläinen.

That black wig is my favourite. The beaded dress is from Ansa and earrings by Tyra Therman.

It was fun to let people try on my hats and tell them about Maria (the founder of the place) and her work.


Some of the guests even danced. I was playing jazz, swing, little bit of electro swing etc.

Cointreau was a smash hit! Just like last time.
And my friend Allu was kind enough to come and make me a "Fiona Timantti" drink!

Here's the Cointrea brochure with our drinks
Yep, my drink :)
For a Fiona Timantti you'll need:

2 cl Cointreau
1 cl Bols Melon
1 cl Rémy Martin Coeur de Cognac
1,5 cl lime juice
1 cl sugar syrup
1/3 vanilla stick (decoration)

Shake and strain into a martini glass and decorate with the vanilla stick.

Drink Me!

I love the green colour of the "Fiona Timantti" drink!

"Sounds too good to be true!" That's what i first thought when i heard about this opportunity Cointreau was about to offer us (me, Bettie B. and Kiki H. from Helsinki Burlesque). They were gonna give us our own drinks! Yes, even though i'm pretty much a total "nobody" in this big world, i have my own drink, haha! And i love Cointreau!

Tomorrow we are having this Ravintolapäivä (restaurant day) here in Helsinki and i'm hosting my Diamond Stash Speakeasy again. So if you are in Helsinki area, come join us! Last time i had hundreds of guests.. Come, Drink Me!
