Cape Town based mixologist Chris Ilus is mixing his way to the top.
Earlier this year Chris’s La Meta, an apricot-spiced tequila and chilli creation, knocked out the competition in the South African leg of Tahona Society‘s cocktail competition. Later this year he will be jetting-off to Mexico to complete in the world finals.
We caught up with Chris at local Cape Town cocktail stronghold, Orphanage Emporium, and asked him to share his favourite hangover cure.
