This. Very occasionally a G&T.I'll go as far as a mojito. Anything with fruit juice tends to be too sweet for me.
Tend to stick to whisky cocktails otherwise.

Martinis only with French vermouth and good London gin. Three olives.
Before anyone asks, no, I haven't photoshopped the following screenshot:
Yes, Noilly Prat. No ice, I keep the fluids in the fridge and the olives are frozen (by me).Noilly Prat one assumes??? Ice???

We have some spirits in the house but never drink them, I think we bought them for guests and the occasional odd recipe but both are few and far between these days. I was thinking of trying a few cocktails to get rid of some (how long does vodka last in a bottle?) but being used to beer drinking one screwdriver would be gone in 5 - 10 minutes I’m sure and would use up most of my daily allowance of alcohol. Was just casually wondering if any fellas here do ever partake of a cocktail or two.
Ah, so it’s OK for me to do a Del-boy then without losing my virility (actually that ship may have sailed).
Interestingly the Screwdriver, I read, should be stirred with an actual screwdriver to make it authentic; could anyone advise if a Philips or Flathead is better, I have both.
I like the famous Martini quote:
“One martini is all right. Two are too many, and three are not enough”
Old Fashioned for me please barman..
