The Swiss have some potent elixirs for when they want to make a match. Two of the best are the cherry-flavoured liqueur Röteli, from canton Graubünden, and Brächere Brönnts, a golden caramel schnapps from the Emmental.
Green walnuts from the verdant valleys of Ticino meet the original green fairy in this cocktail that tastes like a bag of liquorice allsorts.
The Caesar was invented in my hometown of Calgary in 1969, the same year that my mum moved from Switzerland to Canada.
And she was in good company. Immigration from Switzerland to Canada really began in the late 1800s, when the Canadian Pacific Railway hired three dozen Swiss guides to help set up mountaineering tourism in the Rockies.
The milky green Suissesse is creamy and refreshing and makes an excellent brunch drink (or hair of the dog).
Swap out Campari for Appenzeller Alpenbitter for a twist on this classic cocktail.
