A really refreshing drink
I'm fed up of having a beer every night, and when I drink Gin I rapidly get p!ssed. Neither seem to really refresh
Any suggestions for a really nice long cool refreshing end of day whilst sitting on the balcony drinky? For cocktails please provide recipe |

Any suggestions for a really nice long cool refreshing end of day whilst sitting on the balcony drinky? For cocktails please provide recipe I enjoy a very large Pimms with sugarfree seven-up and to make it really special add some bubbley. Oh don't forget the mint, slice of orange and cucumber then you don't have to worry about having dinner. |

OK I have looked it up for you Pimms There are a number of pimms the most popular being No 1 cup. It has a gin base and contains a blend of liqueurs and fruit extracts, giving a bitter-sweet fruity taste. Very nice.......... |

Re: A really refreshing drink
Pink Suprise
1 measure of Malibu or similar 1/2 measure of Campari lots of ice and top up with grapefruit juice Death in the Afternoon Glass of white wine with a measure of pernod, lots of ice and soda if you need it. My Favorite Crushed ice, strawberries or even better raspberries shaken or blended with some vodka, a small amount of brandy, pour into a glass and top with champagne and stir. |

Re: A really refreshing drink
I think vodka + cordial lime + lemonade with ice is very refreshing, simple drink and very nice.
