When it comes to having the best time ever on a party bus, it’s all about making sure you have the right party elements to set the perfect tone! When you don’t have to worry about a designated driver, the members of the party are free to do whatever they like in the back, and that includes enjoying a cocktail or two! Party bus rentals are super fun, and some of that fun is made up with planning the ideal night for you and your friends. With that in mind, here are some suggestions for five perfect portable cocktails that would be great for any party bus ride!
- Greyhound
When it comes to thinking about cocktails that are most suitable for a bus party, it’s all about getting the most flavor out of just a few ingredients. All of our suggestions are two ingredient cocktails for efficiency, starting with the Greyhound. This is a simple mixture of gin and grapefruit juice, but they really are a match made in heaven! If you want to be extra fancy then you can add salt around the rim to turn it into a Salty Dog. Both versions of the drink are delicious!
- Rusty Nail
Don’t worry, this cocktail tastes a lot nicer than its name suggests! The Rusty Nail is made from two parts Scotch whiskey and half a part Drambuie liqueur. It’s served straight up or on the rocks and while some might want to call it old fashioned, we prefer the terms vintage and retro cool! A good choice for any guys at the party who don’t want a ‘girly drink’!
- Martini
You can’t go wrong with a classic Martini and there is a reason it’s one of the most popular cocktails in the world! Add three parts gin to half a part vermouth and abracadabra, the magic happens. Any James Bond fan knows that you can enjoy a Martini either shaken, stirred or on the rocks, so there is a lot of customization that you can enjoy when choosing this iconic drink for the party.
- Americano
No, we’re not talking about coffee, save that for the hangover the morning after! An Americano cocktail is essentially a stripped down Negroni, keeping the Campari and vermouth and leaving out the gin for a sweeter, less brutal taste! If you want to make it a sparkling cocktail then feel free to add a dash of club soda to the glass; it will taste amazing either way.
- Mimosa
There is a reason why the Mimosa is the queen of brunch cocktails all around the world, and that is because it is both simple to make and delicious to taste! Champagne is the perfect celebratory drink and mixing a little orange juice in to make a mimosa really elevates the flavors and turns it into a cocktail that you can enjoy all night without getting bored. Forget brunch, enjoy mimosa all the way into the night on your party bus!
Shake and go and get ready for the party bus with any of these awesome cocktails!
