We love a classic cocktail here at Craft Gin Club, and the iconic Sex on the Beach is no exception. Here, we’ve swapped out the traditional vodka for gin, and the results are pretty spectacular!

If you’ve never tried a Sex on the Beach cocktail and are wondering what on earth’s in store, don’t be put off by the, um, intriguing name - after all, what self-respecting ‘80s cocktail name didn’t have some kind of naughty innuendo-based pun in it?!

So, what’s in a Sex on the Beach cocktail? Well, the ‘sexy’ part is represented by a layer of blushing pinky-red cranberry juice, which straddles the ‘beach’ - a golden foundation of pineapple juice, orange juice and peach schnapps. We have no comment on what the garnish of glacé cherries on top are meant to be (gulp!).

If you don’t have one of the juices, the drink is equally delicious with just one of the orange or pineapple. The addition of raspberry liqueur as well as the peach schnapps does make for quite a sweet cocktail, so if you want to cut through the sugar a little, we suggest add a few squeezes of fresh lemon juice to balance the flavours.

The end result is a sweet, fruity and refreshing long drink - ideal for sipping by the (paddling) pool this summer!
