Cocktails?
Going on holiday soon and have decided to try to live off cocktails! What's the best cocktail to sip round the pool. Any recipes I could take to get them to make up would be great!!
Answers:
Banana daiquiris are great for poolside breakfast.
Margaritas for afternoon, if you are forgoing other food then you might want to get them to through some fruit in there too, such as raspberry or strawberry.
Good luck with that, wear a helmet like me the pool deck can hurt when you fall.
For a pool, there's Bellinis (champagne and OJ), Malibu and pineapple juice, Bloody Marys, and I'll include my favorite.
Melonball
2 oz. Midori
2 oz. Malibu
Fill to the top with pineapple juice
Those are all summery.
Slippery nipple is really really nice. You can't just have one!
Ingredients : - 10 ml grenadine syrup
- 1/2 oz irish cream (bailey's)
- 1/2 oz buttershots liqueur
Pour the buttershots and carolanns into a shot glass. (let them mix) Add grenadine to form a perfect nipple in the bottom of the shot glass. Take as shooter, lick nipple from bottom of glass.
Serve in "Shot Glass " Garnish: No
Ingredients: grenadine syrup. Irish cream (Bailey's). Buttershots liqueur.

Have a nice holiday :o)
something light, like a flavored vodka or rum press ( a press is just a fancy way of saying club soda and sprite, the bartender should know what you're talking about).
or maybe just mixed with club soda, too much sugar gives you a headache, especially if you're gonna be in the sun.
Cranberry juice
Vodka
Sprite
OJ and Pineapple Rum.
Or,
Yahoo on the Rocks
(previously known as a Bushwacker -- LOL)
Qty.
Ingredients
1 1/2 oz. Kahlua
1 1/2 oz. Creame de Cacao (light or dark)
1 1/2 oz. Bacardi Rum (light or dark)
3 scoops Natural Vanilla Bean Ice Cream
3 cup Ice
Directions: You can use dark or light rum. Dark makes it look dirty (unless you add chocolate syrup to the recipe.) Light enhances the vanilla bean flakes. Add 3 large scoops of Ice cream to blender or almost half full. Add Kahula, Creame de Cacao and rum blend on low until creamy. Add the ice and blend on high until frozen. Happy bushwacking. Yahoo!
You cannot go wrong with Sangria, there are a lot of variations of it but here is one. I like to put a bunch of marischino cherries in it too. You sip the Sangria, and snack on the fruit, lol.
* 1 Bottle of red wine (Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Rioja, Zinfandel, Shiraz)
* 1 Lemon cut into wedges
* 1 Orange cut into wedges
* 1 Lime cut into wedges
* 2 Tbsp sugar
* Splash of orange juice
* 2 Shots of gin
* 1 Cup of sliced strawberries or raspberries (may use thawed or frozen)
* 1 Small can of diced pineapples (with juice)
* 4 Cups ginger ale
Pour wine in the pitcher and squeeze the juice wedges from the lemon, orange and lime into the wine. Toss in the fruit wedges (leaving out seeds if possible) and pineapple then add sugar, orange juice and gin.
Chill overnight. Add ginger ale, berries and ice just before serving. If you'd like to serve right away, use chilled red wine and serve over lots of ice. However, remember that the best Sangrias are chilled around 24 hours in the frig. - allowing the flavors to really marinate into each other.
ohhhhhhhhh fizzy wizzys lol
double peach archers
double vodka
fresh orange
lemonade
crushed ice
all in one jug is lovely
if you're going to jamaica, see if they know a hummingbird. my favorite was a dirty banana: bananas, ice, tia maria or kahlua, and a s***load of dark rum....YUM!!!
My favourite is blue Lagoon:
2 shots vodka

Top up with lemonade
Sex on the Beach and the standard sangria are good too. Have fun!
I would recommend trying a cosmo with flavored vodka. We have some great recipe ideas. Our Orange - Pineapple Cosmo is a favorite.
1 oz Van Gogh Pineapple Vodka
1 oz Van Gogh Oranje Vodka
1/2 oz cointreau
1/2 oz cranberry juice
Cheers!
I went to Mexico for a week and lived off these (almost literally). Frozen pina colada, add kahlua and 1/2 a banana. I was getting about 8 bananas a day this way, and bananas are good for you and help prevent hangovers. I don't like pina coladas, but these are good.
the best cocktail would most def be Sex on the Beach

Pineapple Juice 2 oz.
