For many, January is a month where they cut down on their drinking or decide to give it a miss entirely.
For the rest of us, we endeavour to improve ourselves by learning to drink better, and making ourselves some fancy cocktails that are designed to be savoured. The problem, of course, is that our booze cabinets were hit pretty hard between New Year's and Christmas, and now all that's left is a bottle of vodka and some cherries in liqueur that we can't remember buying so could well be six years old.
Well, never fear, as a website called Cocktail Builder is here to rescue you from having to drink straight poitín from a bin bag. All you need to do is to enter in whatever you have left in your drinks cabinet and you'll get a cocktail recipe to suit your needs. It will give you a list of drinks to choose from once you've entered in a few ingredients, and it will also tell you what you're missing so you can make a proper shopping list.
So, whether you want an Old Fashioned or a Barracuda, you can now pretty much call yourself a professional mixologist, once you use the phrase "here's your drink, chopper!".
