BENGALURU: Here was a time when it was not common to see ladies drinking liquor. In fact, they used to generally be offered only soft beverages by default in regular cocktail parties. This has all changed now, and one sees a lot of ladies across age groups, enjoying their spirits, both in straight form, and in cocktails as well. Many bars have a ‘Ladies Night’, where they offer free or subsidised drinks to women on a particular night of the week.
This has also contributed to more and more women experimenting with different drinks and cocktails. I am often asked what drinks women prefer. Earlier, one could easily say gin or vodka, but that is no longer the case. Today, its very difficult to pinpoint a particular liquor that finds favour with the ladies, especially with the younger generation.
However, from my experience, I have put together some cocktails that I have found are popular with everyone, but more so with women. In all the recipes, mix the ingredients together, pour it into the right glass and enjoy as the evening gets better.
