Having a bit of a hoolie today and fancy doing some cocktails
Mojitos seem to be a favourite, but not really being a cocktail drinker, any suggestion?

Mojitos can be beautiful, the only problem is most people fuck them up. Frozen margeritas or daiquiris are good, especially with fruit. Other than that I'm partial to a grumpy old man from time to time.

Well, I've gone for mojitos. Seen recipes for both Bacardi and Vodka and have plumped for vodka
Got me fresh mint, limes ready to squeeze and soda water.
If it all goes tits up I've got a huge supply of Cidre

Don't think I've had one quite as good since. The biggest sacrilege is putting the mint through the blender. Why in God's name would you do that?!?!?! |

Not a great fan of bacardi though.
Apparently I am now in a head to head challenge with a margarita maker
Let battle commence!!
Hope cocktails go down well with my Indian fest!
