Favourite Summer Cocktails
Any cocktail can hit the spot when Summer comes around. However, when you're baking in hot temperatures, whether lying on the beach under tropical climates or feasting on hot barbecued food in the garden, there are certain flavours which hit it better than others. Cocktails are so much more than just any chilled drink. A cold beer may do the trick for some but there is a certain Summer expectation being met on a Saturday afternoon, sitting in the sun holding a refreshing cocktail with your favourite combination of vodka, fruitless and blended ice.
The Old Fashioned. The ingredients are dependent upon where you are drinking it and who is serving as they vary somewhat. Typically, however, you can expect a combination of whiskey, Angostura and syrup with an orange twist. Sometimes, rather than ice cubes, it is poured over an ice glacier large enough to fill the glass. This is preferable to those who take their time to savour their cocktail as it stays chilled for longer.
The Ginlet. One of the most refreshing cocktails and appropriate for the Summer months. Its ingredients are gin and Rose's lime juice with a lime wedge. Gin is often used instead of vodka which infuriates some traditionalists. However, each variety is strong and possesses the ability to quench your thirst and can make you forget about his the heat that was overwhelming you. At least for a few minutes.
Sangria. A great combination of a relaxed wine and something with a little more twist for those having trouble on deciding upon which drink to choose. It is actually considered to be a traditional Spanish wine punch but numerous bartenders put their own spin on it.
The Southside. All the ingredients of a mojito apart from one key element, rum is used as a substitute for gin. Most bartenders will know how to make this drink and it provides the perfect tonic for a warm Summer's day.
