The BFG? Big Friendly Glugging as London bar creates Roald Dahl themed cocktails

roald dahl themed cocktails in london

While we've all had a taste of Roald Dahl in our time, there's one bar in London taking the theme to cocktail extreme. 

Roald Dahl, we hear he's something of a household name. So how to celebrate him during the Broadgate Circle Estate's literary campaign? Raise a glass, silly. And that's exactly what one bar in the Bishopsgate area has decided to do.

Conjuring up a menu of Roald Dahl cocktail classics, Rocket have transformed Dahl's beloved (if not sometimes creepy) childhood tales into a selection of drinks for the public to enjoy during the 'Literary Greats' campaign this coming month. From their blackberries and coconut rum infused 'The Witches', to their Whitley Neill Gin and Blue Curacao 'George's Marvellous Medicine', Rocket have transformed books into booze, and a menu of charming tipples for the public to purse their lips over. Let's just clear one thing up though, we're not all that fond of a 50 Shades of Grey cocktail next.

Cocktails can be found at Rocket Bishopsgate throughout May. Buy two for £12 on the happy hour menu (5-7pm).
