Today I would like to share my thoughts on the art of drinking. Like many of friends I enjoy my alcohol sometimes too much But have we ever thought of what makes a great drink??? is it with good company? ambiance? venue? environment? glassware etc...

My last trip back to Australia I was at one of my favorite watering holes "Golden Monkey" where i was asked by a friend "what do you think is a good drink?" at the time in my hand was a mojito in a bamboo glass, I told him i think all the small components built up makes a great drink in my opinion i.e. good service, vibe, ambiance, venue etc... like I would like to bring up a few things I've notice when it comes to drinking, has anyone ever notice more than often we would believe a drink is better just because it's made with a premium product in? Think the bottle of wine is great just because the waiter has told you its excellent? Or you can be drinking in a dirty/trashy club from a filthy glass and "LOVE IT! ", but on the flip side if you got the same drink at a hotel bar we would not be impressed.....Anyhoo enough rambling about drinking i'll cut it short and get myself a drink haha

Cocktail of the week or month until my next blog haha:

Black Cherry and Coconut Sour

4-5 Black Cherries
4 Lemon Wedges
30ml Malibu
20ml Chambord
20ml Monin Coconut
10ml Lime Juice
10ml Egg White
5ml Lingoberry Cordial

In a boston (mixing glass) lightly press lemon wedges and cherries, then add all ingredients shake vigorously (so you get a nice froffy head from the egg white) then single strain into a chilled wine glass preferably a big one over crush ice garnish with a mint sprig. This drink is great for all you sour lovers out there.. enjoy!!
