Tonight the Housemates got a course in Mixology.
people drinking Johnnie Walker

The Housemates were surprised with a last-minute Johnnie Walker Task. The Head of House, Sis Tamara read out the rules. Biggie grouped Yoli, Tulz, Mpho, Gash1, and Zino because they’d expressed they didn’t want alcohol. The rest of the House area had to pick between three fruits to determine which group they’d end up on.

The Housemates freshened up and made their way to the Arena where they stood in front of the Mixologist table. The Mixologist told the Housemates he would be teaching them how to make three cocktails, that are simple with advanced elements. 

These cocktails are perfect for a hot summer's day. 

Johnnie and Ginger Highball 

Ingredients 

Lots of ice (ice keeps ice cold)

Double shot of Johnnie Walker Black 

Ginger Ale

Ginger 

Method

You put lots of ice in a glass, add a double shot of your Johnnie, top it off with ginger ale, give it a stir, always taste your drink and top it off with more ice so that you can place your garnish on it. Cut up pieces of ginger for the garnish. This cocktail will keep the flu away and the honey is in the whisky. 

Tip: Add a single shot of ginger syrup (25ml), a single shot of lemon (to balance), and enjoy!
