Teitur Ridderman Schiöth is one of Iceland’s premier bartenders. He's developed his craft in such far flung places as Thailand and Germany but we were lucky enough to meet him when he flew into town for the Taste Of Iceland 2018 sponsored by Iceland Naturally. If you missed him taking over the bar at Beat Brasserie in Harvard Square this past weekend, or any of the other cool cultural events, at least we have some of the cocktail recipes he shared with us for you to enjoy at home and featuring ingredients popular in Iceland.
We loved this one because it reminded us of those opaque waters at the Blue Lagoon Spa, one of the many sites we enjoyed on our trips to Iceland.
