It's been a busy time for us all here at Make Me A Cocktail, and with so many changes happening in the cocktail world we're not happy at where our site now sits to help all those discerning drinkers and budding enthusiasts.
It's time for us to move our site and apps onto the next generation of online cocktail tools and we'd love to have you along for the journey.
We want to be the best there is, but what exactly could this look like? We've got so many great ideas and thoughts on what to build but as always we're biased on what we feel is great and filled with amaziness. We really want to hear your voices and what we could do.
We've put together a little (ad free, anonymous if you required) questionnaire that shouldn't take you more than 3-4 minutes and we would love to hear what you've got to say, but as always any ideas, thoughts or 'wish lists' do let us know. We read every one!!

Bartender's top tip
Incorporating fresh herbs like mint, basil, or rosemary can add a new dimension to your cocktails. Spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, or even black pepper can also create intriguing and complex flavors. Muddle the herbs gently to release their oils without turning them bitter, or infuse them into simple syrups.
