Title: How Many Of You Have Invented Your Own Drink?
Post by: Bentley Bullet on June 30, 2024, 12:36:08 am

I have, and it's the best drink in the world.

Here's what you do...

Get a 300ml (about 1/2 pint) glass.

Fill with ice.

Pour in 50 ml of whisky.

Pour in 50 ml of Robinsons peach & Raspberry juice.

Proceed to enjoy a "Bentley Bullet",  the best Cocktail you'll ever taste.

Hand pulled pint of John Smith's Magnet, or Banks's (mild).

Pop in a little paper umbrella.

It's called a "cocktail".

I discovered Amaretto and cranberry recently. Very, very acceptable.

I certainly didn't invent it; I first saw it mentioned on Henry "Blowers" Blofeld's social media a few years ago but if Summer ever turns up (it was 10 degrees colder in Cornwall than Yorkshire last week so I've still barely seen the sun!) I'll be sinking a few of these:

2 parts Ginger Beer
1 part Cranberry Juice
Sprig of Mint
Plenty of ice

You could probably add your favorite booze but as a non-alcoholic cooler it's utterly delicious.

Get a pint glass.
Half fill it with Farmers Blonde
Topit up with a half of Farmers Blonde.

Now that's a cocktail I can get behind (and around), TT!
