Bloody Mary

Keeping in tradition of the hangover drinks; today's drink is the ultimate cure for the early morning blues. The classic Bloody Mary is a delicious blending of tomato juice, Vodka and seasoning.

To make a Bloody Mary you will need:

1.5 oz Smirnoff® vodka

3 oz Bloody Mary mix

1 celery

1 pinch peppers

1 pinch salt

Fill a highball glass with ice and pour in the Vodka and Bloody Mary mix - stir well. Garnish with salt, pepper and a stick of celery. This should have a bit of a bite to it when you drink it however the small amounts of Vodka will help your headache disappear while the tomato juice and celery will help settle your stomach.

Enjoy!

Tom Collins

This is the classic 'Wedding Drink', which is actually where I came across this beautifully strong drink. Nothing helps a best-man get out on the dance floor like 13 Tom Collins!
To make a Tom Collins you'll need:

2 oz gin
1 oz lemon juice
1 tsp superfine sugar
3 oz club soda
1 maraschino cherry
1 slice orange

In a shaker combine the Gin, Lemon Juice and sugar with ice and shake well. Strain into a glass half full of ice. Pour in the club soda, stir and garnish with the cherry and orange slice.

This drink has a really smooth almost sweet initial taste followed by the crisp bite of Gin. This is definitely a sipping drink and should be enjoyed slowly.

Seeing as how the Wedding season is fastly upon us I strongly implore you all to try this drink at your next reception, I promise it will get you out on the dance floor and enjoy the night!
