Welcome - Celebrity Cocktail

In this weeks post we have a new section called Cocktail Spotlight, find out what a Celebrity Cocktail is, we remind you about our Cocktail Club on Tuesday nights, we boast some of the best prices for daytime drinks this summer and the Ten staff's favorite section where we dilly-dally down the YouTube dale.


TUESDAY COCKTAIL CLUB:

Rule number one of Cocktail Club....  Check out Ten's range of cocktails specially selected with our clients in mind.  Our cocktails are made from premium ingredients and made to traditional specifications which make our cocktails authentic.

With our cocktails at half price you can enjoy more of our menu for your money, which features such classics as:
Mojito:  Bacardi, sugar cane syrup, fresh lime and a topping of mint.  This classic cocktail is also available with raspberries.
Cosmopolitan:  A Sex and the City favorite with Vodka and Contreau, shaken over fresh lime and cranberry juice.

PRODUCT PLACEMENT?:

 Don't forget that at Ten Cocktail Bar we like to be fair about our pricing, and our offer on Jagermeister and Red Bull is no exception.  You can pick up this popular favorite for a measly £2.95 so you can keep your party going with Red Bull Energy.

CELEBRITY COCKTAIL:
Having chucked the words 'celebrity' and 'cocktail' into Google I had been anticipating things like Tom Cruise, Joan Collins or even an olive, but no I found a wonderful new type of cocktail.


You take two celebrities, mix them together and see what you get.  If you have a celebrity cocktail to suggest, then drop us a comment.

COCKTAIL SPOTLIGHT:

This weeks spotlight is on the Long Island Iced Tea, as made and photographed by our resident ninja Suzy.

A summer drink, the Long Island Iced Tea was first served in the mid 70's by a man named Robert 'Rosebud' Butts who was a bar tender in the Oak Beach Inn, in the town of Babylon, Long Island, New York.

Ingredients:
Vodka, Bacardi, Tequila, Gin, Triple Sec, lime, cola.

Variations:
Beverley Hills Iced Tea:  The cola is substituted with champagne.
Jersey Tea:  The cola is substituted with a shot of Jagermeister.
Tokyo Iced Tea:  Triple Sec is replaced with Midori and the cola for lemon and lime soda.



SOMETHING ELSE:
Its summer and the beaches are getting busy, the kids are off school and if they're not driving me crazy in the streets then uber stressed mums can be found crazy driving in the growing traffic queues.  So here are some videos about summer and driving.  Enjoy!
