A few months ago I was asked if I’d like to do a cocktails review for a new website called Social and Cocktail<\/a><\/strong>. Well, this was promptly filed into the ‘yes please’ category, as you can imagine!<\/p>\n

The new website launched a month or so ago, and is a fun resource for cocktail making, recipes, ingredients and of course those all-important sampling reviews.<\/p>\n

Our night at The Voodoo Rooms started a little something like this, and the rest of the review can be found at the link below.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The\u00a0Voodoo Rooms<\/a>\u00a0is a plush old belle of a Victorian venue, and the bar\u2019s interior definitely has a little bit of an old Parisian style of glamour. Black and gold is the colour scheme of choice, and if you ever want to know what a \u2018well-stocked bar\u2019 is then this place should clear up any queries of definition.<\/em><\/p>\n

We went in on a Saturday night and the place was buzzing. The DJ in the corner booth is mixing in some Studio 54-esque disco tracks, and my drinking companion and I head in for round one. A Dry Martini for me and a girly Cosmopolitan for Emily. It\u2019s a busy night and so our drink is being prepared further along the bar. I am mildly annoyed that the barman doesn\u2019t check how I\u2019d like the drink finished; olive, lemon or whathaveyou. As it turns out, a perfectly mixed mouth-puckering gin martini with a lemon twist is soon in my thirsty grasp. Emily\u2019s cosmo with requisite flamb\u00e9ed orange zest is also good, juicy, and unashamedly pass\u00e9! …<\/em>.<\/p>\n
