It’s cocktail hour here on F O and this time I’m sharing a citrus-spice twist on a French 75. After all, if there’s a time of the year to spice your classic cocktails up then it’s got to be during the festive season. This post contains an item that was gifted to me (marked with an asterisk)....
Let the festivities continue! This time I’m talking gifts. It’s that time of year when we’re all thinking ‘oh god, Christmas is getting awfully close isn’t it? What am I going to get so-and-so?!’. Unless you’re one of those incredibly well organised Christmas gift buying bosses..which I most certainly am not. So for anyone...
Alright so I know it’s officially Autumn. BUT when I asked if people were still interested in seeing my ultimate Pimms recipe over on Twitter you all said (well 93% of you did) that you were still keen to see the recipe. So before we get engulfed by dark nights and rainy days I’m...
I don’t know about you, but recently I’ve been really into making my own cocktails. Over the years, cocktail making has been an interest of mine, but given the current circumstances I’ve been finding myself trying out new cocktail recipes on the regular.

Picture this… it was back in August on my 22nd birthday. I was stuck in Manchester airport with a 4-hour delay on my flight to Jerez and had plenty of time to kill. So of course my solution to the delay was trying out a new spritz in the airport bar. It was my...
After the absolute disaster that I had last week I’m finally back with a new blog post! If you’re reading this thinking “but Faye, I have no clue what disaster you’re on about!” here’s the low-down. This time last week my laptop decided to give up right in the middle of the most important...
Last weekend I took the train back up North for a much needed relax on my home turf. A few weeks before hand I was lucky enough to receive a super exciting little package in the form of alcoholic beverages. If you’ve ever seen a tweet of mine then you’ll know that I’m a...
Perfect for cold Wintry nights, the 1919 cocktail is a drink that should definitely be on your radar. Bringing together gin, Campari and Vermouth, it’s the ideal drink for warming you up, despite the fact that it’s actually a cold drink.
