A lil' something to cool down

With temperatures rising this end of the week on Australia's east coast, here's a chill-out drink sure to cool you down. Using simple ingredients, this fruity cocktail can be shaken or built, just make sure you add lots of ice!

Summer down under

Sex On The Beach
2 oz. Vodka
1 oz. Peach Schnapps
2 oz. Orange Juice
2 oz. Cranberry Juice
Garnish: Orange Slice
Though there are many variations to this cocktail, we've brought it back to basics today to celebrate the middle of summer here in Australia! (Though it's not exactly summer weather right now..). Add all the liquid ingredients into a shaker and shake with ice. Strain into a nice collins glass or any fancy glasses you may have. Remember to have new ice in your glass prior to straining as we try not to reuse ice due to it being watered down.
A simple recipe that's great for all occasions, Sex On The Beach can also be easily made in jugs for those larger gatherings.


Taste: 7/10. Fruity flavours with a subtle vodka kick.
Presentation: 7/10. A unique colour blend which stands out.
Price: N/A.
Overall: 7/10.
