Fancy a drink?
Now we wouldn’t usually be necking back the hard liquor of a Monday, but today is no ordinary Monday.
This blessed day, Monday 13 May in the year of our Lord 2019, is World Cocktail Day.
It also happens to be a stunningly sunny day and the beginning of what’s expected to be a fabulous week of weather, so it’d be kind of rude not to celebrate appropriately.
You may have been caught on the hop after the weekend but not to worry.
We are not in possession of a mini-bar ourselves but there are some cocktails that only require minimal ingredients – like these six tasty beverages.
1. Grapefruit Fizz
Tequila + grapefruit soda.
2. The Gimlet
Gin + lime juice.
3. The Screwdriver
Vodka + orange juice.
4. Elderflower Champagne
St. Germain (elderflower liqueur) + champagne.
5. Bourbon Iced Tea
Bourbon + peach iced tea.
6. The Dark and Stormy
Rum + ginger beer.
