To be honest, I'm not into cocktails in a big way, but I do enjoy them when the occasion is right. As I'm no connoisseur, my favorite cocktail is the good old fashioned Mojito. 

Mojito

A standard Mojito consists of white rum, sugar, lime juice, sparkling water and mint. This makes for a refreshing citrus taste which I found both exciting, tasty and relaxing. Because of this, and it's relatively low alcohol content Mojitos are normally a very popular summer refreshment.

I usually stick to the beer when I'm out socialising with friends, but when I do get a cocktail, it's normally a Mojito. They're just so very tasty!

I have 2 favorite cocktails. I like drinking cocktails as they are far less likely to cause bloating than ameretto and coke or malibu and lemonade, or even a lager for example.

My first favorite is a maitai

This is made from:

  • Light rum, Dark rum, Gold rum
  • Pineapple Juice (optional to make it a long drink)
  • Cointreau
  • Orgeat
  • Lime juice

It is really nice to have after dinner even, but mainly good for nights out.

In contrast to this I also like a really dairy filled cocktail. Different bars call this by different names, Most commonly known as the Screaming Orgasm.

The ingredients for this are:

  • Vodka
  • Baileys
  • Kahlua
  • Amaretto
  • Cream
  • Chocolate Powder

With this cocktail you can hardly notice the taste of the alcohol as it just tastes like a chocolatey milk-shake. These were my number one favorite until I found out that each cocktail has 300 calories in it, that is as many as a double choc-chip muffin!! Unfortunately, so is the maitai, so I guess that alcohol is definitely an enemy of any diet.
