Stick to cocktails that only have 1 or 2 spirits, nice garnishes like pineapple wedges or strawberries can make them look fancier than they are!.

Mix Vodka tropical juice and a dash of cream and shake, serve in a tall glass!.

Mix Vodka Tia Maria and coke for a Black Russian, very yummy!.

Mix Tia Maria , milk and choc topping and top with a tiny ice cream ball in a tall glass!.
