Angostura orange bitters will give the drink more spicy, marmalade notes, while Bitter Truth orange bitters taste much more of freshly-peeled orange zest. Then make the drink as normal and garnish with a lime wedge. Minty muleTake inspiration from the mojito and mix up a dark & stormy twist with 50ml dark rum, 25ml lime juice, bitters and ginger beer served over crushed ice, garnished with a wedge of lime and a fragrant sprig of mint (for best results, give the mint a clap between your palms before tucking it into the drink as this will help to release the aromatic oils). Then add two straws and enjoy. Mexican muleTequila really loves ginger and lime and all three come together beautifully in this Mexican twist on the mule. Just make the drink as normal but instead of rum, use a nice lightly-aged reposado tequila like Ocho or Olmeca Altos - it will give the drink a whole new layer of interest.

• Combine the sugar and 1/4 cup water in a small pot over medium-high heat and stir until the sugar is dissolved. Cook the sugar, without stirring, until the caramel is an amber color, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove the pot from the heat and set aside on a trivet.
• Once the caramel starts to thicken, dip the skewered chicken hearts into the caramel, and place on the silicone pad to cool and harden while you make the drink.
• For the Dark and Stormy: Fill each of 4 tall glasses with crushed ice. Evenly divide the spiced rum and lime juice among the glasses and top each with the ginger beer. Garnish with a chicken heart skewer. Serve cold.
