Whether you need a midweek pick-me-up, a weekend treat or are in the mood for something sweet, you will find something to hit the spot. You can enjoy a classic, such as a long island iced tea or an old fashioned - or maybe you'll discover a new favourite drink, like the fresh paloma, primrose fizz or the mexican marshmallow mocha.

Cocktail novices can enjoy the introduction to mixology, which includes a guide to choosing the right glass, common cocktail ingredients and useful equipment for cocktail making, as well as a glossary of techniques - from muddling to mixing.
