[Drinking] Recommend a cocktail for this Bank Holiday weekend

[Icy Gull]

My go to cocktails are

Cosmopolitan
Gin Fizz
Margarita

Not a fan of Martinis, Mohitos (mint in a drink, yuk), Pina Coladas (too sweet)

Looking for inspiration, ideally with limes or lemons involved and nothing too sweet

Maybe cocktails are too fey for a football forum

 

[Is it PotG?]

Gorilla Snot

'Andsome.

Port mixed with Baileys

There were some things I knew would get posted when I started the thread, just need the Molotov recommendation now

I only drink dry gin martini so I’m not much help I’m afraid.

Had a dirty martini for the first time a few weeks ago, not a massive fan though.

I guess they may be an acquired taste?

A mai tai?

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

It's the McCorona for me

 

[Stat Brother]

You could drink Black Clad Ultras.

Coca Cola
Bitter Lemon
Twisted straw
Drunk from a tea cup while being vigorously shaken.

Sure it's not much to look at, has no bite, but it does have a very high opinion of itself, although in the end will leave you wanting less.

Loved the 'red death'

Cocktails too fey for a footie forum? not at all.

I'm very much a Margarita man myself, particularly those served up by the lovely Amanda in the Avra Bar of the Nine Muses Hotel in Skala, Kefalonia, my go to summer holiday destination once or twice a year, (some free advertising there). She also does a good Strawberry version too.

Other than that, l'm quite capable pf sinking the odd Gin Fizz and Tom Collins too.

Stick a generous shot of washing up liquid in with the petrol

Cocktail wise, cannot beat a Mojito

How about a Caipirinha? Seems to fit the bill, albeit you'll need to source Cachaca (or improvise).
