A cocktail for Kent?

Kent is very good at promoting its own food and drink. Produced in Kent and its team led by Julie Monkman do a fantastic job.

But as far as I know, they have not yet come up with a distinctive Kent cocktail. I know the county has locally brewed beer and cider which is delicious but how about a Kent cocktail for drinkers who think they are too sophisticated for a pint?

Copenhagen Capacity, the Locate in Kent of the Oresund region in Denmark and Sweden, recently launched a competition for a Copenhagen cocktail. Leading bars and restaurants were invited to take part to find a Copenhagener.

The winning recipe includes genever, Heering cherry liqueur, fruit juice and a cherry. It was launched at MIPIM. Quite strong but delicious.

Copenhagen Capacity is promoting the drink and restaurants that serve it as a way of promoting that lovely city. Jurgen Jessen, the aimiable business development manager and stalwart of the last 10 MIPIMs, believes it will help sell the area. How about a similar competion for a "Kentish?"
