8th January 2024

It’s a crazy time in the world right now, with each of our countries taking action to stop the spread of coronavirus. While it’s a difficult time filled with uncertainty and in some cases restricted movements in your day to day, take a moment to pause and reflect on the good things around you. We wanted to share with you a few pointers to help have a creative outlet and enjoy a little time in your home ?

Get Creative

Make Me A Cocktail has built an online platform for inspiring cocktail enthusiasts and connoisseurs in a creative and engaging way with the creation of the unique My Bar feature. If you feel like getting a little creative, open your cupboards and fridge and log what you have got in your home in My Bar. There’s a load of cool stuff that happens in the background and tells you what cocktails you can make! And trust me, with over 3,500 cocktails in the Make Me A Cocktail system, there is more than likely to be recipe to magically turn that uninspiring cupboard in to something spectacular you can stand back and be impressed you made it!

Be Part of a Community

If you enjoy the My Bar feature, why not register and join the community? Not only will your profile and bar be saved, you can start to create your own cocktails, earn badges of honour and learn more about the art of cocktail making from fellow community members!

Here’s a few cocktails to brighten up your spirits (pun intended)!We might want to try a little something at home that will help brighten up the blues while we recover and get back to normal or simply enjoy the moment. Some of these cocktails may offer a little enjoyment and light relief if you’re feeling a little run down!

Hot Toddy - https://makemeacocktail.com/cocktail/7296/hot-toddy/

The Hot Toddy, with its warming blend of spices and sweet honey aroma, is the perfect comforter and will soothe any aches, pains or winter sniffles.

Honey Bee - https://makemeacocktail.com/cocktail/6961/honey-bee/ This is one soothing and punchy cocktail, taking advantage of sweet honey and citrussy lemon. The best part is, it’s only using three ingredients that you’ll almost certainly have in your house!

And if you need to try a real kick – Try the Bow Tie - https://makemeacocktail.com/cocktail/8887/bow-tie/

Created by a Make Me A Cocktail community member Jason, this is one punchy cocktail mixing the strong and smooth tastes of Whisky, gin and Kahlua - that tastes even better served ice cold on the rocks.

Make Me A Cocktail supports responsible drinking – please drink in moderation

Bartender's top tip

Bitters can add depth and complexity to your cocktails, acting like the "spices" of the drink world. A few dashes can transform a simple drink into something far more sophisticated. Experiment with different brands and flavors of bitters, ranging from the classic Angostura to more exotic options like orange, chocolate, or celery bitters.
