cocktails/alcohol - help?
 
my guything has said he's taking me out for cocktails on saturday. alls good? yeah, not really. heh. I don't do cocktails.

prefer fruity stuff, but not overly bothered, as long as the taste isnt too strong.

suggestions? :thumbup: :plain:

Monitors are good but they aren't seasonal. Have fun!

Woowoo! They're nice, sort of fruity-cranberry-lime flavour but not too strong.

Mojitos are lovely, if they are made right. It's a minty-limey flavour. Very inoffensive taste. But maybe that's because I love them!

The classic Cosmopolitan or French Martini, they are always popular.

The cocktail menu at the bar should have a description of each cocktail, just have a little look at each one and see what tickles your fancy! Also, it's perfectly acceptable to try lots of different cocktails from the menu, or ask the bartender what they recommend for you. :)

Have a great time! I used to adore cocktails, in my heyday! :D

I agree with susies suggestions though Cosmos and martins can be strong but I do love a Cosmo!

It really depends where you go as to what you get! Could you look at the menu first?

AMA what's a monitor

When I used to drink my favourite was woo-woo/sex on the beach. Very nice, not too strong.

sex on the beach is nommy.

I know Tequila Sunrise (orangey flavour) is another popular one, though I always had other favourites.

ta lovelies :) have had a look through menus before & most cocktails seem like what i usually drink at house parties - a load of stuff thrown together which is most likely gonna taste like crap :P

Cocktails? Get some whisky donw your neck ya fanny

Perhaps they'll be more well made than the ones you drink at house parties. Give it a shot before you decide it's going to be crap, silly.

A vodka Sunrise is quite nice :)

Tequila sunrise mixed with newcastle brown ale is nice.

screwdrivers taste good!

Daquari's are lovely and made with fruit (I'm partial to a strawberry), Mojito's are absolutely lovely also and a pina colada is always nice if you like Malibu and sweet things :) x

It's a mojito when you've got autocorrect on and don't notice it changed anything.

Cosmo's and Sex on a beach are both really good. If I'm not sure I ususally just tell the bartender to make me something sweet with Vodka (my preferred choice)

Exactly this! The ones I would choose too.

I love Sex on the Beach and Strawberry Daquiris. I love cocktails! As people have said, a cocktail list should list what is in each one so just decide from that what you think you'd like. And most of all, enjoy!

So...? How was it? :D
