On ‘World Bartender Day’, let’s see – and recognise – how different styles drink their cocktails or, of course, mocktails.

D-style

The unique or specific cocktail-style drinker. With a touch of flair and status. So, not one of those with colourful straws and umbrellas. But one based on a good (expensive) whisky, rum, or gin, for example.

I-style

May actually go for a ‘fun cocktail with all the frills’. Does choose in the style of the moment. Can, therefore, adapt and is flexible in the choice. But always open to trying something new.

S-style

The style with a favourite. As in a safe choice. Because you never know! If you make the wrong choice, it’s a waste and can be embarrassing. Does taste others to learn what is also okay.

C-style

It’s perfectly fine to go for an alcohol-free mocktail. Simply because it tastes good, but if you still have to drive, that’s how the rules are. As the designated driver, you take responsibility.
