What’s your favourite cocktail/mocktail?
 

For me in the summer I love a good frozen margarita. In the colder months I prefer an old fashioned or negroni.

I love a margarita (though not frozen), - especially spicy ones. Negroni, Espresso Martini, Old Fashioned and I really love a Pisco Sour. For me, anything either smoky (like a Mezcal), sour, spicy or bitter is a winner.

Test tube baby.

Love a Margarita or a Mojito

A new cafe bar opened near us in Spain and they do a variety of Spritzs which are great in the heat

Campari, Cynar, Limoncello....not so keen on Aperol but the rest are great :D:

There is a Brazilian bar just off Waterloo station that serves mojito to die for.

I spent a recent Saturday in my garden at home rotating between these four spritz - so refreshing in the heat!

Love those.

We rarely go to Central London now but if we do will check this out thanks Parm, is it one of those under the Arches?

Never tried a mocktail but really want to.

No, its just round the corner a bit....maybe on the way out to Lambeth.. 5 mins from the station...You can't misss it.

okay ta

You are welcome..let me know what you think if you ever go.:blush:

Never had Cynar before its very bitter but a nice bitter :laugh:

Someone recommend some mocktails?

Pornstar Martini or a Moscow mule

Pina colada is my go to

I like a baby Guinness or 2 as well on a night out with the girls

Purple rain

Or sex on the beach if it's done properly with grenadine instead of cranberry

Long Island Iced Tea and a Pina Colada if it's really hot. But I'm not cocktailist, I'll have a crack at any of them.

Most cocktails can be made as mocktails. They often use a non-alcoholic alternative.

What’s your palette preference with drinks? (Sweet, sour, spicy, smoky etc)

Sweet/fruity

You’d probably like a virgin strawberry daiquiri.

Have a look at the link below. So many good recipe/ inspirations:

Do not drink cocktails

Girls drink

Yes, if you still live in the 1800’s

I get gay men drink them but I have never met anyone or seen anyone save Del Boy who ever drank a cocktail :laugh:

I know plenty of not gay men who would drink a Cocktail :shrug:

This is an interesting study - the majority of Millennial men like cocktails, however most would avoid ordering them due to peer judgement.

I'm big into my cocktails and the majority of cocktail-focussed YouTube channels are male. I think the attitude towards cocktails being fruity pink drinks with umbrellas in them has really shifted, people now recognise cocktails are simply spirits with additional flavourings.

One of the best cocktails I ever had was a sesame old fashioned, whiskey that was fat washed with sesame oil. It was glorious, so savoury yet with this hint of caramel. Some cocktails play with your senses and your tongue so brilliantly.

Then you need to go out more. :laugh:

I get some cocktails are quite ‘girlie’ but many are not.

Get yourself to a speakeasy bar and have an Old Fashioned.
