One Hundred Kisses from Mixologist David Wondrich

“The difficulty with many drinks made with amber spirits is the finished color is not compelling. The red fruits in this recipe create a stunning rich pink color,” says mixologist David Wondrich.

He created this fruit-based cocktail for Hennessy’s new coffee table book, Manifest X.O.-Style Fundamentals for the Good Life. The drink was served at the Launch party for the book at Sky Studios in New York- and it was a big hit.
