Cocktail Hour on location


 I took cocktail hour on location at the weekend, I decided to have a trip to Headingley for T20 cricket and worked a cocktail round the trip.

The cocktail was 


'That's tea gentlemen' ( a much loved call at cricket on a hot day )

Camomile tea bag 

Vodka

Champagne ( or cremant or cava)

Freshly squeezed orange juice

Orange peel twist to garnish


Soak the camomile teabag in the vodka for a few hours

Strain vodka into a flute, add orange and top up with chilled champagne.


I served it with a small selection of afternoon tea items and with the fabulous view of the pavilion.

Perfect for cricket..................or it would have been if the match hadn't been abandoned with out a  ball being bowled!!

Rain!!!! The cricket spectators nemesis!

This would have been my first cricket since 2019, however  I got to be back at Headingly and the lovely Headingley Lodge for the night.
