The Glitterball

When, thebar.com, one of the best cocktail recipe sites in UK got in touch asking me if I wanted to try share some of their cocktail recipe ideas… well, they didn’t have to ask me twice! The Bar is the perfect resource for anybody looking for some unique and yummy drinks for their wedding, party or, you know, Tuesday…

Gordon’s Sloe Gin & Apple Juice

Having a signature cocktail at your wedding is a great way to infuse some of your personality into the party. Just like your invitations might set the tone of the event when your guests receive them in the mail, a welcome drink that screams “you!” will get all your guests chatting, especially if you display a menu with what the ingredients are and why you picked them. If Gareth and I were to do it I think we’d have to serve something pink n sparkly with the added kick of whiskey for example!

The best thing about these recipes is that none of them require any fancy equipment or tens of different bottles of spirits and mixers. Most of them just involve one type of alcohol and you can navigate the site really easily by searching for your favourite spirit, the occasion you want to serve it, or just by the cocktail name itself. Hundreds of simple combinations and invaluable tips and advice to make them at home await you!
