Toast Aintree with Grand National cocktail at Marco Pierre White’s Steakhouse

This week’s Grand National meeting demands nothing less than thoroughbred quality, ampoule and who better to provide that than Marco Pierre White.

Raise a toast to Aintree with a special race-day cocktail served exclusively at Marco Pierre White Steakhouse Bar and Grill over the Grand National meeting (April 7-9).

Race to be first past the post with the Amberleigh House cocktail – the perfect combination of Whitley Neill, sale fresh lemon, clinic gomme syrup and a teaspoon of orange marmalade to garnish.

Or how about trying The Pogfather, an traditional favourite, merging together The Pogues Whiskey, Disaronno and two dashes of orange bitter. Celebrate a sweepstake win with Becher’s Brook – paying tribute to Aintree’s iconic fence – a simple cocktail containing just Prosecco and dragon-fruit puree.

For the ultimate race-goer, take a gamble on the Steeplechase – fusing four lime segments, gomme syrup, vodka and mint leaves.

Mark Tasker, general manager at Hotel Indigo Liverpool, said: “The Grand National is the horse race of legends and these special cocktails are worthy of such greatness.

“Marco’s is the perfect place to gather with your race-day companions following a long day at Aintree. Relax with us, enjoy the buzzing atmosphere over great cocktails and fine food, and make your Grand National experience even more of a winner.”

You can even beat all the odds and celebrate the Grand National with a fantastic three-course meal for just £35(pp), including a glass of Champagne. Terms and conditions apply.
