Drinks for occasions, Do you like a little tipple? 

Here’s a few you might have over looked

I’m not a huge drinker, in fact I’m a light weight and have been called a cheap date because I can’t keep up with my piers, but I’m ok with that lol

“But I do know what I like”

Over the years as we grow so does our pallet, it becomes matured and a little more refined, well I like to think mine has 😊

I think there are different drinks for different occasions or how your mood takes you. Here are a few suggestions for this time of year that you might have overlooked.

Pink Cloves

If I’m getting a cold or flu type symptoms the best drink to kill all germs is “Rum and Pink Cloves” take a shot glass and pour 25% of Pink Coves and top up with Rum. Down the hatch in one if you can and feel the glow, this always works for me! A little advice from my Dad years ago.

Bloom London Gin

Gin has become a trendy drink these days but I’ve always enjoyed a tall glass of Gin and Tonic with lots of ice and freshly crushed limes. I am fussy over my Gin, a decent Gin at a fair price thats not oily or leaves an after taste has to be Larios. For something a little different has to be Bloom London Dry Gin. If you haven’t tried it, then it’s a must.

M & S Prosecco

Occasionally a glass of bubbles is nice if chilled down and especially for Christmas morning with fresh orange juice (Buck Fizz). Lots of people rave about Prosecco, I’ve never been a fan until 3 weeks ago when I was doing my photo shoot. I had taken a bottle along as a prop and opened it up while I was there. It was truly a great glass of bubbles from Marks and Spencer crisp and clean, if you didn’t know better you would think you had paid £50.00 for the bottle. Definitely one to try this Christmas.

Baileys Original

This time of the year I always enjoy a glass of Baileys in a balloon glass over lots of ice and I call it my anytime drink. I have tried numerous cheaper versions but find them too sweet, for me the original Baileys can’t be beaten. It’s a nice tipple when you are listening to Christmas music while wrapping your presents.

Argentinian Malbec

When I was living the high life I used to enjoy a glass of red wine with my meal, I would alway choose a french Fleurie. About 3 years ago I was introduced to an Argentinean Malbec – Las Maletas Mendoza, what a great glass of red that was very smooth and very reasonably priced. It’s now always on my shopping list.

Mulled Wine

I absolutely love Mulled Wine, not the ones you get pre bottled as I find them way too sweet for me. You just can’t beat a home made Mulled Wine with the little kick of glorious spices to warm you up, especially at this festive time of year. When I lived abroad at Christmas time you could buy a hot glass of Mulled wine at most places and it was great walking around the Christmas fairs sipping your Mulled wine while browsing on a cold evening.
