Maybe you've noticed from some of our social network postings, or maybe you read an earlier blog post that we were creating a new version of Make Me A Cocktail, or maybe, just maybe, you're reading this because you're waiting fro the kettle to boil. Either way, we wanted to showcase to you some of the improvements and advancements you can expect to see in the new Make Me A Cocktail, which we're labelling version 2.5.
With over 200 (yes you read that right, ove 200!!!) tweaks, bug fixes and new features, theres so much going on, but some of the new things we love include:
New improved search
Choices of how to view results
An amazing new dashboard
With a host of amazing new badge designs
Quick access to drinks you can make from your My Bar
The new version should be released (fingers crossed) on April 1st, just in time for April Fools day where we'll also be releasing 20 new amazing cocktails to go with the launch. We're super excited and can't wait to get this new version out and ready for you all to use.

Bartender's top tip
Serving your cocktail in a chilled glass can greatly enhance its enjoyment, keeping it at the optimal temperature for longer. Simply fill the glass with ice and water to chill it while you prepare your drink, and then dump it out just before straining your cocktail into the glass. This is especially important for stirred, spirit-forward drinks like Martinis or Manhattans.
