@rousette

I'm sure you won't mind that your excellent link gets 'pinned'.

Some of the things MM did before marrying H.

@MoreHippoThanPenguin

I just had a G&T, delicious! Did someone mention Campari though? I am quite partial to Campari soda.. Smile
Me - on my second! It makes me think I'm on holiday.
Roussette · 31/07/2020 21:09

please please please drink the gin and arrive at the party pissed as a fart

Nearly did ooops. Back from neighbours garden thingy

Can I recommend a cocktail I love love love? (Sorry had too much to know whether or not we are on drinks still but...)

Aperol. Elderflower cordial. Gin. Shake up in a cocktail shaker. Pour into cocktail glasses. Top up with fizz

OVienna · 31/07/2020 21:18

Oh, that's a good idea. I have never bought Aperol yet. Have stood in front of it, contemplating, many times though.

YouSayWhat · 31/07/2020 21:20

What is Aperol? I’ve always assumed it was Swedish alcohol apple juice. What does it taste like? I’ve heard lots of things about it (hic)

meercat23 · 31/07/2020 21:20

You lot are a very bad influence on me. Way too many ideas. Off to open the lemon gin

YouSayWhat · 31/07/2020 21:24

Rhubarb gin. Drunk neat on the rocks

Wheresthebeach · 31/07/2020 21:34

Rhubarb Gin is amazing....but don't forget Raspberry Gin. Very nice on the rocks.

Had half a bottle of pink Champagne - DH went bonkers and brought a bottle up from the cellar. Considering a Grapa to round the evening off.

Ilovellamasandpenguins · 31/07/2020 21:36

You are very fancy with your drinks - I just a plain old ‘pint of cider’ girl.

meercat23 · 31/07/2020 21:36

Raspberry Gin is amazing. So is cherry vodka. Not that I drink much of courseWink

Roussette · 31/07/2020 21:41

Aperol is divine. Think Campari with an italian edge, herbs roots and orange 😍

Grin
Nah, love it all

MoreHippoThanPenguin · 31/07/2020 21:54

Aperol is great, but I actually think Campari soda may be better... it is something so special about Campari soda...

Seems everyone is on the booze tonight, it must be one of those evenings Smile

cheezy · 31/07/2020 21:55

@Roussette that cocktail sounds deadly. I must try it.

myrtleWilson · 31/07/2020 21:55

am back from a meal out at a gorgeous tacqueria near me so I've margartia'd (an homage to Princess Margaret perhaps?!)

cheezy · 31/07/2020 21:56

I love bitter drinks. A good one is Cynar if you haven’t tried. It’s made from artichokes.

YouSayWhat · 31/07/2020 22:01

I know this thread isn’t about Prince Andrew but he has been named in court as having an orgy with under-age girls. The Queen is not having a good week is she?

Roussette · 31/07/2020 22:02

It is seriously good. When all my DCs come home (2 DDs, and a DSS) it's a ritual. We do one big one, with one bottle of fizz for all of us.

Then we do another.

Usually Christmas Eve but any excuse
It always goes well lol

Roussette · 31/07/2020 22:04

Oooh I'm going to look that up! I love something bitter that I can add to. I am not a sweet drinker if that makes sense probably not

I believe it is an allegation against him, which he so far has always denied. However, you’re right, even if there is no truth to it at all, it’s not going to be a good week for HMQ with everything that’s been in the media.

Samcro · 31/07/2020 22:29

Wow you lot are fancy, im just doing bourbon and coke

YouSayWhat · 31/07/2020 22:37

Full fat or diet cola samcro?

Crispsginchoc · 31/07/2020 22:43

Thanks Jeff I picked the wrong month to stop drinking hahahaha. A non alcoholic cheers back to you! 🥂

Oooh OVienna thanks for the tip 🍸Sounds delicious! I’ve never thought of a non alcoholic gin before. Probably a bit late to send the husband out to Sainsbury’s. He can go tomorrow morning 😂

YouSayWhat · 31/07/2020 22:50

Bloody hell, it’s getting worse for the Queen. Will someone give her a dubonnet?
