. #margaritas #strawberry #bar #bartender #thessaloniki #koxylicious #menoumekoxyli #final #tequila #saturday #yourplace #bestplace #view #enjoyIngredients
A cup of frozen strawberries
Ice
1-2 tablespoons sugar
1 serving of excellent tequila
Preparation
Place all the ingredients in a blender and blend until everything is combined and ground fully. Garnish with a sprig of rosemary or thyme sprig, or some fresh basil flowers. Drink immediately.
Changes
Strawberries can be replaced with almost any summer fruit—such as raspberries, blueberries, sweet cherries, etc. The tequila can be replaced with high quality vodka.
If the fruits are very sweet, you can reduce the sugar a bit, or just add 1-2 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice for some refreshing sourness.

]]>While you might not be at a Brazilian party while being stuck wherever you live, there are plenty of cocktails from Brazil that you can either make at home or find on bar/restaurant menus. Here are some of the best ones that you should seek out!
Caipirinha
The Caipirinha is a Brazilian classic, which has become popular and well-known all around the world. This mixture of a liquor made from sugar cane known as cachaça, sugar, and lime slices makes a sweet, sour, and potent drink that is completely irresistible.
Leite de Onça
Leite de Onça is a cocktail that also contains the famous cachaça—but it is completely different when compared with a Caipirinha. This drink combines cachaça with cocoa liqueur, milk, and condensed milk to make a cocktail that tastes strangely like a chocolate milkshake!
Espanhola
Finally, if you’re looking for Brazil’s answer to sangria—an Espanhola is for you. Red, dry wine is blended with sweetened condensed milk and pineapple chunks in a blender or food processor, resulting in a fruity and sweet drink that resembles a fruit smoothie. Yum!

#beergarita #beer #elhefe #desperados #tequila #drink #summer #holidays #wood #vakantie #polishboy #tux #lux
Putting a new twist on this favorite drink is the beergarita—a cocktail which adds beer to the equation to make a slightly less alcoholic version with the backbone of a light Mexican beer. Let’s learn how to make it!
Ingredients
- 4 12-oz bottles Mexican lager (Corona and Pacifico are my two go-to options)
- 2 cans (12 oz) frozen limeade, defrosted
- 400 ml silver tequila
- Limes, for garnish
- Salt, for garnish
- Ice
Instructions
Start off by combining the bottles of Mexican lager along with the defrosted frozen limeade in a large pitcher. Stir thoroughly to combine.
Next, open up your silver tequila and measure out 400 milliliters. Begin by adding about half of the tequila, and then try the mixture. It will be strong enough for some, but not for others. Add as much tequila as you feel comfortable with adding to make the mix stronger up to the 400 ml that you have measured out.
Come try our Beergaritas! BEST in town and that’s a hard fact!

Tag a beergarita buddy #cocktails #beergarita #delicious #drink #mixeddrinks #bar #bartender #bartenderlife #bartending #allansfiresidegrill #yum #refreshing #corona #margarita #margaritasPlace this mix inside of your refrigerator, covered, to chill for a couple of hours. When it’s cold and ready to serve, be sure to serve it with generous portions of ice and garnished with lime slices and salt on its rim.
Enjoy your beergarita!

]]>Here are 3 creative variations on the gin-based cocktail for you to try at home.
Strawberry Tom Collins
Crush 4 strawberries and mix with 2 teaspoons sugar, 10ml lemon juice, 25ml gin, 20ml strawberry liqueur, 75ml soda water and crushed ice in a cocktail shaker. Shake and serve over crushed ice in a tall tumbler.
Grapefruit and Mint Mojito

) so I couldn’t say no to @romygill’s new mango, ginger + lime gin – a fabulous Friday evening snifter/stiffener simply stirred with ice, a spritz of fresh lime juice and some cardamom bitters. Skål dearest Romy, I hope we can drink these together in person before too long!
According to Johansen, there’s no such thing as a gendered drink, and both men and women can enjoy her cocktails depending on their particular taste. “I grew up in Norway and we didn’t have these gendered ideas of what an ‘appropriate’ drink for a woman was,” she explained in an interview with Khoollect. “If you wanted a beer, you drank a beer. If you wanted a whisky, you drank a whisky. Both my parents love whisky (my mother’s more of a bourbon drinker, but she’s a fan of a whisky sour with scotch) and over the years I just tried whatever they had.”
), then threw in a few slices each of green apple and cucumber for a Northern European fruit cup vibe, plus some rosemary and tarragon from our little herb pots. As Larry David would say, pretty, pretty, pretttty good. #sundowner #lowalcohol #aperitivo #easydrinks #DIYdrinksA whiskey-gal herself, her relaxed approach to both cooking and drinking has attracted an impressive following. With some 13k followers on Instagram and pieces published on esteemed publications like The Times, Sunday Times, and Marie Claire, Johansen clearly knows what she’s doing. Having trained at Leiths School of Food and Wine in London, she also worked in several of the UK’s top restaurants and went on to do her Masters in the anthropology of food at SOAS food studies center at the University of London.
Method: press the leaves of 1 lemon verbena sprig in the bottom of a glass with 60ml St Germain elderflower liqueur (you can substitute with elderflower cordial for an alcohol-free version), then top up with an equal amount of chilled green tea, a bit more soda water, ice and a few dashes of cucumber bitters then garnish with ribbons of cucumber and another verbena sprig. You could make it a punchier drink with a shot of gin, vodka, tequila or white rum, or sub in some sparkling wine instead of the soda water. For extra acidity lemon or lime are both excellent, though I quite like these delicate flavours doing a little dance here without the added bounce of citrus
