Cosmopolitan

Combine 45 ml vodka and 45 ml cranberry juice in a shaker and add lots of ice. Squeeze both wedges of lime and drop in. Shake it well and strain into a martini glass. Take an orange peel, flame it a little to extract the oil essence and drop it in the drink to enhance the flavour.

Gin and Tonic

To make this famous cocktail, add one part of gin into a glass and fill it with fresh ice. Then fill the glass to the top with tonic water. Squeeze some lime juice in the drink and add a fresh lime wedge before stirring.

Pina Colada

Fill a blender with pieces of pineapple, a pinch of sugar, some coconut cream, white rum, ice and fresh pineapple juice. Blend the cocktail and pour it into a chilled glass. Add a pineapple triangle for garnish.

Vodka Martini

To make Vodka Martini, combine 50 ml vodka, 1 tbsp dry vermouth and some ice together in a cocktail shaker. Strain into a chilled martini glass. Serve with a twist of lemon peel. This one is definitely worth trying out at home. Add a few homemade snacks and you are good to go.
