Lockdown Cocktails - what are you making?

[Hadjab]

I’m obsessed with rhubarb daiquiris right now

What are you making/drinking?

White Russian? Vodka, Kahlua/coffee liqueur and milk?

Oh I love a White Russian😊

Harvey wallbangers here- 2 shots of vodka, 1 shot of Galliano and top up with orange juice and ice. Lovely on a hot day!!!!

'Lageritas!'

Nigella's invention, I believe?! I love them, but they must be a love or hate thing because DP tried a sip of mine once and looked like he was going to die said it was one of the most disgusting things he'd ever tasted. Whatever, more for me!

@AuntieMarys Corpse Reviver or Corpse Maker? 🤣

@Yambabe ooh, I have all of those ingredients, I’ll do that later 😋

@LauraPalmerViolet that sounds like death in a glass - I’m down!

I'm in the ME & it's Ramadan & I ran out of imported duty free even before that so...

Local arak with sprite & the last sticky remnants of Cointreau I found I'd hidden from myself in the cat food cupboard, back when I thought I'd be having a summer of frozen margaritas...

It's called Scorpion Piss because that's what ds told dd2 mum was drinking '& that's why she's making those horrible faces!'

4 days to go until the local booze wagon sneaks back into the compound after Eid .

Stupid cocktail question- in a Dirty Martini, what is 'olive juice'? Is it the brine out of the jar of olives?

I'm going to try baileys and amaretto at the weekend.

Does anyone know what I can make with Vanilla Vodka - got two bottles of the stuff.

Vodka blended with frozen berries and mint is nice

These sound delicious! We're making white Russians, espresso martinis and mojitos, and DP bought a bottle of Aperol that was on offer, so we're saving that for half term 🥳🍹

Prosecco mixed with either rhubarb Kopparberg, or lovely rhubarb, lemon and mint Recorderlig cider. 50/50 or whatever.

Vodka gimlet for me:

50ml vodka
25ml freshly squeezed lime juice
25ml sugar syrup
Shake with tons of ice - et voila!

SO refreshing. Can do with gin or bacardi too...

@I8toys vanilla vodka is perfect for Porn Star Martinis!

The desperation

1/4 supermarket vodka

3/4 FrootShoot (own brand)

I8toys add a splash of vanilla vodka and a splash of tia maria or creme de cacao to a glass of baileys, then pour the mix over 2 scoops of vanilla ice-cream. You now have a Frozen Black Irish.
