Crafting the Ultimate Sex on the Beach

Take a moment to familiarise yourself with the major components of this magnificent drink. This will then ensure that you can deliver the tastiest possible tipple to whet your whistle after a hard days toil!

Orange Juice

While thirsty folks can quite easily knock up a Sex on the Beach with a store-bought bottle of the orange stuff, there’s no substitute for the real thing. So, go out and find the juiciest fruity orb you can find, and squeeze the bejeezus out of it. This goes double if the only bottled stuff around is artificially flavoured sugary tat.

Cranberry Juice

Have you ever tried to juice a cranberry? Even if you get hold of one, chances are you’ll have a great deal of difficulty getting any liquid out of it. As a result, mixers should feel no shame in using a store bought version. Just go for far-reaching global cranberry juice baron, Ocean Spray, everyone else does!
