WELCOME TO THE COCKTAIL HOUR.
This page is for all those who would like a break from beer and wine. For all those who feel they are sophisticated enough to enter the world of true taste. The world of cocktails is the world where colour and flavour combine, where endless summer hides in the drinks cabinet. Amuse your friend by offering them a Slippery nipple, or a monkey’s lunch. Would they like a rusty nail or brain damage after dinner or would they prefer to drink between the sheets with you. Cocktails are the drinks that make celebrities drunk so join the world of the famous, and find out what a celebrity hangover feels like. To make real cocktails you will need to acquire a few implements. A measuring glass to make sure you use the correct quantities of liquid. A cocktail shaker to shake the liquid and a spoon to stir. It is also handy to have a blender handy for those crushed ice drinks. Below is a list of ingredients it is handy to have. No need to buy them all at once, just pick one up now and then and you'll be surprised how quickly they build into an impressive collection.
