Found some now, but still put off some cocktails based on crap over-mixered versions. My favourite cocktails are mostly ones without much more than spirits in, like the Vesper.

Can't go wrong with the Vesper d000hg, it's divine!

You need to find some decent cocktail bars

Also get your self a copy of this

Got it already

I was put off cocktails, and partially still am, by the crap version pubs and bars often serve... put in some spirits and fill to the top with Coke so it's just a sweet fizzy mess.

She did you a big favour. I was introduced in Verona when making a lucky guess before going to the opera. My choice of drink in Italy, once in Venice whilst the wife was having an afternoon nap I had three, when I went to get up I just toppled straight into the piazza, most embarrassing! I now stick to one pre-dinner.

Many moons ago, I had an evening of Zombie cocktails in KL once. I left the bar, completely forgetting the evening meal I was supposed to meetup with friends, ignoring the 100 "where the f*** are you" texts and thought I was in some pinball machine - staggering around, bouncing off people and walls and eventually got to my friend's flat and collapsed unconscious in the lobby.

Not at all embarrassing. Oh no, not at all...

Speaking of which, another empty glass needs refilling!

norrahe introduced me to the negroni - lovely and refreshing.

I'm a big fan of the White Russian, especially at the end of an evening. Also enjoy Long Island Ice Tea which I was introduced to many years ago at Rammstein Airbase. Frau D. had an Erdbeerinha (Strawberry Caiparinha, sp?) last night which was quite pleasant in the sun. I'm not allowed to have Zombies anymore

Also sound interesting: MUSTARD COCKTAILS – drink dogma

[norrahe]

I reversed engineered it from Charlotte's Bistro in Chiswick, as a present for a friend of mine. Christ, that was one fun evening trying that.

Feeling like a mangy dog is a perfect excuse for a morning cocktail as a sharpener.

Think you mean Bols not bold!

yep, duly corrected, not a good idea typing recipes whilst imbibing said cocktails.
