5 Two-Ingredient Cocktail Recipes For The Lazy You

When it comes down to making cocktails at home, there are days I settle for a beer because I feel too lazy to even rinse a glass. Hoping you are better than me, I present to you 5 two-ingredient cocktails you can make at home without putting in any effort.

1. Greyhound

Greyhound is a popular cocktail that requires you to begin by adding 60 ml of gin into a glass. All you have to do next is add 30 ml grapefruit juice to it and you are set for the night. Easy, right?

2. Rusty Nail

If you are a scotch person, the next sentence will bring happiness to you. To make yourself a Rusty Nail, add 60 ml of scotch to a glass and add 20 ml of Drambuie liqueur to it. You can either have this cocktail on the rocks or straight up. Cheers!

3. Martini

One of the most popular classic cocktails, a Martini requires you to pour 60 ml of gin and 15 ml of vermouth into a glass. Add 60 ml of vermouth to it if you are looking for a ‘very wet’ Martini. And if you are not feeling lazy anymore, add some olives to the drink to make it a ‘dirty’ Martini.

4. Black Russian

Make yourself a lovely Black Russian tonight by pouring 60 ml of vodka and 30 ml of Kahlua liqueur into an ice-filled glass. Now, life can’t be easier than this.

5. Screwdriver

A few servings of the Screwdriver cocktail will eliminate all the worries out of your life! All you have to do is add 30 ml of vodka to 60 ml of orange juice. Just ensure you pour yourself a chilled glass of orange juice, and you can sit out on your balcony and praise the good life. 

Maybe I should rename this listicle to ‘5 quick ways to get drunk’ because these cocktail recipes are so quick to make that you won’t even realise when you have had too many!
