The Beginning of the End
)
“I love the garnish in a cocktail. Whether it’s a booze-soaked olive or a ridiculous burnt rind of orange, the accompaniments all SCREAM fancy! Because that’s what a cocktail is, it’s being fancy. Sometimes, that slice of cucumber in the bottom of the glass is your only meal. I’m imagining the end of an evening, where the glasses aren’t cleared away… and that’s when the party starts for the vermin.” Lindsey Mendick
Mendick’s The Beginning of the End is designed with the cocktail the ‘Cockroach’ in mind.
