    All this talk lately of 'having some drinks on the terrace' and 'sipping beer in the garden'.

    What is your favourite tipple?

     

    ice cold lemon squash

    I'm a lemon squash fiend! Drinking one right this minute, whilst sat in the garden.

    Don't really drink much booze these days as I've had a problem with it in the past consuming too much, if I do it's usually in the winter rather than summer as it tends to warm me up so I can go a good 6 months before I drink the stuff, I can crave it beforehand but it's not every day and it subsides. Summer drinks I enjoy fresh orange and sometimes mango juice. Tomato juice is nice too from time to time. I don't eat dairy or milk products as I am lactose intolerant so can't eat proper ice cream when it's hot unfortunately as I get horrendous stomach cramps that leave me doubled over.

    A nice glass of Pimms and Lemonade with sliced fruits and mint. 

    Non alcoholic Mojitos.

    A cold beer every few weeks or so, or a nice bottle of Koppenberg, or Old Mount cider.

    Not a fan of soft drinks, but on the odd occasion I'll enjoy an ice cold glass of lemonade, 7Up or Coke.

    Used to be an ice cold glass of a fruity cider normally koppaberg but can't drink now due to my meds so i opt for a glass of ice cold coca cola or a chilled red bull

    A very nice drink indeed Snowycat, I used to work for the Manners family personally on the the local Haddon Estate who developed the soft drinks and whines for Belvoir many years ago.

    I’ve tried all sorts of Orange Cordial or Squash and, in my humble view, you simply cannot beat Belvoir Orange Cordial.  It is expensive at £3.25 a bottle but being severely curtailed with all things nice due to my exceptionally sensitive coeliac disease I insist on treating myself to this All their other cordials are tasty as well.

    Not much of a drinker but I do love a nice, cold Aperol Spritz on a warm summer evening, lovely

    • Real coke, full fat, STRICTLY out of a glass bottle 
    • Standard drink at home on the patio would be nicely chilled white wine
    • But if we’re talking cocktails….Harvey Wallbanger with lots of ice.

    Funnily enough I’ve just stocked up on the ice cubes….Mmmm
