6 delicious two-ingredient cocktails to make yourself for World Cocktail Day

Fancy a drink?

Now we wouldn't usually be necking back the hard liquor of a Monday, but today is no ordinary Monday. This blessed day, Monday 13 May in the year of our Lord 2019, is World Cocktail Day. It also happens to be a stunningly sunny day and the beginning of what's expected to be a fabulous week of weather, so it'd be kind of rude not to celebrate appropriately. You may have been caught on the hop after the weekend but not to worry. We are not in possession of a mini-bar ourselves but there are some cocktails that only require minimal ingredients - like these six tasty beverages.  

1. Grapefruit Fizz

Tequila + grapefruit soda.  

2. The Gimlet

Gin + lime juice.  

3. The Screwdriver

Vodka + orange juice.  

4. Elderflower Champagne

St. Germain (elderflower liqueur) + champagne.  

5. Bourbon Iced Tea

Bourbon + peach iced tea.  

6. The Dark and Stormy

Rum + ginger beer.
