Cocktail History

The Great Comeback is a cocktail with a fascinating history that dates back to 1984 at the legendary London bar Fred’s Bar. Under the guidance of the famous bartender Dick Bradsell, who has become a true icon in the world of cocktails, this drink was created at the request of a model who was looking for something unusual that would “wake her up and impress her” with its taste.

Dick decided to combine rich espresso with vodka, adding unique ingredients to enhance the flavour palette. It was the birth of the alcohol cocktail The Great Comeback, which instantly gained popularity among visitors due to its unusual combination of flavours and aroma.

The drink is distinguished by its sophisticated style and elegance, making it the perfect choice for holiday parties and meetings with friends. Today, The Great Comeback vodka cocktail is considered a classic, a symbol of energy and fun, thanks to its ability to combine passion for life and unique taste.

Food Pairing

The Great Comeback cocktail goes well with desserts, particularly chocolate cakes or pastries. The sweet taste of Creme de Cafe liqueur and the honey hue of Nemiroff vodka create harmony with chocolate, emphasizing its deep aroma and richness. In addition, nut-based desserts, such as nut tarts or almond cookies, are ideal for accompanying the cocktail, adding new flavours to it. Dairy products, such as yoghurt or cream, will also provide a pleasant contrast to the richness of the drink, creating a balance in the combination. Together, the ingredients make the evening even more sophisticated and memorable, providing the perfect finish to any party or celebration.
