Inspired by Peter Gabriel’s moving track “Down to Earth”, this mocktail borrows more than just the name; it shares the same emotional register: grounded, rich in depth, and subtly uplifting. The title plays on dual meanings: “Earth” refers not only to the song’s introspective tone but also to the drink’s earthy flavour profile, built around beetroot, sesame, and mint: ingredients that connect the drink to the soil, the senses, and something deeper than just refreshment.

For cocktail enthusiasts who appreciate complex, smoky flavors with a surprising twist, "Like a Boss" combines a nutty sesame oil-infused scotch with rich, coffee-infused sweet vermouth. Balanced with orange and aromatic bitters, and finished with cherry wood smoke, this drink is an experience for both the palate and the senses. It’s the perfect blend of smokiness, spice, and bittersweet warmth—a delightful cocktail for slow sipping in cozy settings.
