Cocktails

Haven't had a cocktail in years, but do remember rather enjoying a Black Russian

Margharita please if you're offering.

I don't believe I've ever had one...

Black Russian isn't really a summer cocktail, so can I change my mind and either have a strawberry daquiri or a peach bellini?

There are some lovely new ones around lately, there was one in the DT (how appropriate!) that involved rhubarb and elderflower.

Bellini for me please!

Would that be a half or a pint, kitty?

Slow Comfortable Screw please ?

My DD has thoroughly enjoyed inventing new cocktails in her bar/restaurant.
A triumph has been 'dessert cocktails' to take the place of puddings! They largely involve lots of fruit.

Mine's a mojito please! No need to dirty one of those dainty little glasses, I've still got the big Paris hot air balloon receptacle I brought home from Vegas.

Strawberry Daiquiri for me please. I don't seem to have much of a head for cocktails any more though.

Now you've got me going. A whiskey sour, a caipirinha, a Harvey wallbanger or a frozen daiquiri. Just beaten into first place by a porn star martini.

You're a woman after my own heart, ann!

I used to love a screwdriver or a greyhound. Alas, no more. These days alcohol gives me terrible heartburn. My cocktails now are strictly non alcoholic.

I forgot a white lady beloved of Nigella Lawson when she was at uni when she wore long back gloves and I think smoked Sobranies through a cigarette holder.

Boston Iced Tea for me please.

The last holiday H and I had was to Lake Garda in a lovely hotel overlooking the lake with a balcony which served cocktails until dinner and I mostly had a white lady while H had a G&T and they were half price during cocktail hour.
Such happy memories.

A Poinsettia or a Strawberry Daquiri please

But preferably a Singapore Sling. In Raffles Hotel.

I'd love a margarita. Perfect for a summer evening.

Three different chocolate liqueurs with strawberries and little mini pipettes that inject the liqueur.

Not exactly a cocktail but my favourite all the same !

Long Island Ice Tea please.

Mojito please, after joining Jalima 1108 in a Singapore Sling.

Do we get the peanuts with the Singapore Sling?

Our WI had an Italian mixologist recently demonstrating cocktails and passing round the results, delicious! I particularly liked the Aperol spritz!

Just throw the shells on the floor Auntieflo!

Oh heck, just checked, the Long Bar is shut for refurbishment.
