Food and Drink

It has been a long time coming, but summer has finally arrived! This warm weather always gets me in the mood for a refreshing cocktail, so I’ve been surfing Pinterest to find some decent recipes.

Check out these beauts! Almost makes me want to down tools right now and head for the beach bar! Rustle up any of these and you’ll be my friend for life! ;)

Sex on the Beach

.

This is my ultimate summer drink. Vodka, peach schnapps, orange juice and cranberry juice all merge together to create lovely sweet summer lovelyness. Now all I need is the sunkissed beach…

Mojito

.

It might be a bit of an effort crushing the ice… but totally worth it. Take some rum, lime juice and sugar, and pour over crushed ice and mint. Delicious!

Long Island Iced Tea

.

One of my personal favourites… but it certainly packs a punch! We’re talking vodka, tequila, rum, triple sec and gin, mixed together with lemon juice, gomme syrup and coke. One to be savoured.

Pina Colada

.

If you like your cocktails tropical, then this is the one for you. Add a splash of white rum to pineapple juice and coconut cream, and bingo! Instant summer in a glass.

Margarita

One of the most popular cocktails in the world, the margarita is an absolute classic. Mix tequila with Cointreau and lime juice and serve in a salt rimmed glass.
