As promised, we will start to post most of the recipes and presentations held at the BCB 2008 in no particular order from now on.

Jeffrey Morgenthaler was indeed a bit quicker and already posted his presentation on his own blog (which is more than worth reading but you all should know that by now!). Well he did the work so he should get the honors, right?

Anyways, here are the recipes of Xavier Padovani‘s (Global Brand Ambassador Hendrick’s Gin) great presentation "Drinking with Dickens" including my personal favourite: the White Cargo. What a tasty drink….
