“I created The Fridge Fizz for the opening of TVM’s first ever live-music venue, TVM at The Fridge in Dubai,” says Walsh. “This ‘at-home’ version of the recipe beautifully combines aromatic notes of habaq and dark caramel with the sweetness of honey and a fresh burst of lime. It’s the perfect crisp and elegant non-alcoholic cocktail to impress your party guests, without the hangover.” 

The Fridge Fizz (serves 1) 

Ingredients 

30ml Lyre’s Dark Cane non-alcoholic spirit 
20ml honey syrup (made from 1 part honey + 1 part water) 
20ml lime juice 
4 drops bitters 
5 habaq leaves (if you don’t have habaq, substitute with basil) 
Vintense alcohol-free sparkling white wine, to top 

Equipment 

Cocktail shaker 
Fine strainer  
Coupe glass – pop in the freezer for at least an hour before serving
