All entertainers or hosts must know how to make cocktails, as there is much fun to be had both making them and serving them. Blow your guests’ minds away with the list of cocktails Lake Road Restaurant brings you, to be the best entertainer they have ever had.
Gin & Tonic
The British soldiers are responsible for creating this cocktail that is a definite must-have at any cocktail party or social gathering. It’s wonderful for warm weather and simple to prepare as you only need to add some gin to a bit of tonic water and ice, decorate with lime and you have a wonderful cocktail.
Martini
The Martini is a drink dating back to 1863, in Italy. It is an elegant drink to serve and not hard to prepare. All you need is some vodka and dry vermouth, some ice, stir in a mixing glass for 10 seconds and pour in a cocktail glass garnished with lemon peel.
Daiquiri
The drink of choice for women was created in Cuba but by an American man. The Daiquiri arrived in America by the start of the 1900s. Making this cocktail is as simple as pouring white rum, lime juice, and simple syrup into a coupe and serve it adorned with a little cocktail umbrella.
Negroni
Created on the whim of one Count Camillo Negroni, this cocktail is an acquired taste given its strong flavour that perfectly balances bitterness and sweetness. To prepare it you will need to have some dry gin, sweet vermouth, and Campari, stir it in some ice for 30 seconds and serve in a coupe garnished with orange peels.
Dark ‘n’ Stormy
Brought to us thanks to the creativity of Royal Navy officers experimenting with drinks in Bermuda. Prepare it by getting a glass and filling it with ice, add some Gosling’s Black Seal rum, then top it with ginger beer and serve it garnished with a lime wedge.
With these cocktails, you will ensure you provide variety and delicious beverages for all your guests at any kind of event, without the need to be an experienced bartender.
