I've found some nice ideas while reading a colorful leaflet published by Diageo.
Smirnoff Lemon (11,8 g alcohol) is considered one of the most requested drinks in many bars.
The perfect recipe includes:
- 4 cl. Smirnoff no. 21

- 2 slices of limette
Many would equally love Vodka Cola, with the same alcohol content as the precious drink and where you should only replace the Schweppes with Cola. In both cases, don't forget to use a lot of ice.
Cape Cod may be less known but very delicious. It includes:
4 cl. Smirnoff no. 21
12 cl Cranberry juice
3 slices of limette
Moscow Mule is about vodka, but with a mild flavor. The same 4 cl. of Smirnoff no.21, plus 12 cl. Schweppes Ginger Ale and 2 slices of limette
If you ask me what I would like to drink one of those evenings, I would say instantly:
Green Apple and Lemonade.
For preparing it, I will need: 4 cl. Smirnoff Green Apple, 12 cl. lemonade and 1 slice of apple
If you rather love more energy, Lime and Cola may answer your needs:
4 cl. Smirnoff Lime
12 cl. Cola
1 slice of limette
But let's go to more complicated things:
Grand'O tells a lot to the lovers of Grand Marnier. It has a concentration of 12.6 g alcohol.
The recipe includes:
4 cl. Grand Marnier
6 cl. fresh Orange juice
8 cl. Schweppes Soda
seasonal fruits - such as blueberries, strawberries
5 ice cubes
As I am a very simple person, a Grand Mojito will make me as happy as a Green Apple and Lemonade.
The main condition is to mix:
4 cl. Grand Marnier
12 cl. mineral water
1 cl. limette juice
7 leaves of mint
5 ice cubes
As in the previous case, the concentration of alcohol is of 12.6 g.
For a sweet evening, the Baileys are the answer to all the stress accumulated over the day.
You can try the very simple recipe of Baileys Latte (2.7 g. alcohol):
2 cl. Baileys Original Irish Cream
2 cl. Espresso
Milk
Grated chocolate
If you want a Baileys Hot Chocolate (6.7 g alcoholic concentration), you should add:
5 cl. Baileys Original Irish Cream
20 cl. hot chocolate
5 cl. whipped cream
pieces of chocolate
Men with personality will adore the following combination based on Johnnie Walker.
The classical recipe that I know to prepare is: Whisky and Cola (12.6 alcohol):
4 cl. Johnnie Walker Red Label
16 cl. Cola
1 slice of lemon
For the Whisky and lemonade, one may need to add many ice cubes, plus:
4 cl. Johnnie Walker Red Label
16 cl. Lemonade
1 slice of limette
Let's move to more complicated things and have - only if you are 18yo - a sip of Whisky Ginger:
4 cl. Johnnie Walker Red Label
16 cl. Schweppes Ginger Ale
1 slice of limette
The alcohol concentration is 12.6 g.
I don't remember exactly the taste of Gordon's London Dry Gin, but I am not a great fan of gin in general.
Those who are, will love either the Gin Tonic (11.8g alcohol):
4 cl. Gordon's
12 cl. Schweppes Tonic Water
1 slice of limette
or the G.Whizz ( the same concentration of 11.8 g alcohol) which seems a very fresh treat:
4 cl. Gordon's London Dry Gin
6 cl. Schweppes tonic Water
6 cl. Ginger Ale
1 slice of limette
While preparing this article, I discovered that Captain Morgan is a rum.
It can be used for a funny recipe simply called: Captain and Cola:
4 cl. Captain Morgan original Spiced Gold
12 cl. Cola
1 slice of limette and, of course, many ice cubes.
