Zesty Lime Cocktail Competition Winner – Get the recipes!

We ran a competition within the LPL team and had some refreshing ideas for cocktails that star zesty citrus fruit.

The idea which packed the most pucker was designed by Michael Collins. Congratulations!

Michael wins the ingredients to make him and some mates his cocktail. Our runners up were Laila, Daniel and Louise who will enjoy a mini cocktail treat.

Entries included The LPL Martini, The Simultaneous (AKA Can we exchange and complete on the same day), The Exchange of Contracts, S.D.L.T (Strawberry Daiquiri Lime Twist), The Kombucha Caveat and The Moving Day-quiri.

WINNER – The Failed Completion (AKA I’ve Got Six Sims)

  • 60mls of gin
  • 30mls of Cointreau
  • 30mls of lime juice

Instructions: pour all ingredients into a cocktail shaker. Fill with ice, shake and pour into your favourite glass.

“A riff on a margarita – it uses gin instead of tequila and no salt rim, but the gin really makes it a different drink entirely. It is lethal though and you can’t handle more than a couple – which is why I gave it the name that I did. You don’t want any more than two failed completions in the same way that you don’t want any more than two of these!” – Michael Collins

Whether you’re celebrating moving in or cooling down after house hunting, we hope you enjoy the cocktails that our team created as much as we did!
