DH and I usually stick to mojitos but I fancy something new. What's your favourite cocktail?

Sex on the beach.

English Garden

Gin based and really refreshing. Good if you like a mojito

Has to be a Negroni with nice orange twist!

An old fashioned, every time!

If I’m feeling fancy?
Pornstar Martini

If I’m feeling like reliving my “teenager attempting to be fancy” days?
Cheeky Vimto (Double port or Chambord with a bottle of WKD blue dumped in).

This is one of my absolute favourites.

I also love a Manhattan, a dry Martini or an Old Fashioned.

Strawberry Daquiri its like a adult slush puppy

Margarita

Sparkletastic · 02/06/2022 16:40

Margaritas. Every time. Tequila - it makes you happy 😏

yellowsmileyface · 02/06/2022 16:40

Well I was gonna say mojito... I see now that's irrelevant!

Have you considered variations of mojitos? Watermelon or ginger are good ones to try.

HappyGoDucky · 02/06/2022 16:41

I do like a mojito but my favourite it the good old Pina Colada.

We have a lovely cocktail bar just a stone throw away from us and their drinks are exquisite. Spiced Margarita and Cherry Blossom 😋

Bramble!

I love a bramble! Not to sweet, slightly tart, best when garnished with fresh blackberries.

Espresso martini

You've finally made me Google what a pornstar martini is. The name has always put me off but it sounds delicious.

So many good suggestions, keep them coming.

A Negroni or a Margarita

Amandasummers · 02/06/2022 16:46

I'm on holiday at the moment and had a Russian joy a few days ago which was amazing! Other than that I've been swinging between sex on the beach and blue lagoon!

Margarita. I quite like a caipirinha as well but there quite sour. Tequila sunrise is my go to on holiday.

Perhaps controversially I really like a Long Island ice tea.

SaltedCaramelIcedLatte · 02/06/2022 17:04

Has got to be a Long Island Iced Tea for me

Used to like a Purple Rain in my younger days

Susurrar · 02/06/2022 17:06

Old fashioned or bramble. Mmmmmm
