I spent a couple of hundred quid on ingredients above and beyond what is normally in my drinks cabinet and I've been working my way through the International Bartender's Official List. I've been trying to make them as perfect as possible. Tonight I'm making Pisco Sours.
Does anyone have any favourite cocktail recipes they'd like to share?
Cocktail that was voted best of the night was invented by a friend of a friend who was only 18...
Get half a can of lager and shake in the shaker it so it goes flat.
Add ice grand marnier vodka and orange juice and reshake. The might have been a touch of fresh ginger added too.
Tastes much better than you'd think and is well balanced.
You've got 1 of your 5 a day in there and no sugar water.
Taste a bit like that Blue Moon wheat beer you get witha slice of orange.Signed sealed and delivered.Comment

There are a few others I like the look of based on the top 20 cocktail books list at Diffords but I'll work with what I have for now!
I second the Winter Martini....my quagmire of greed....my cesspit of laziness and unfairness....all I am doing is sticking two fingers up at nurses, doctors and other hard working employed professionals...
