It’s great getting to be part of a growing company. Even as an intern I’ve had the opportunity to be part of some wicked brainstorming sessions and seen suggestions actualised.

So the sun is out and thoughts at Spoonfed Towers are already turning to the summer ahead. Summer, for us, means many things – it means scotch eggs and gingham, sandwiches in the sun (crusts cut off, natch), lunchtime cricket (which Tom always wins) and ice cream making the occasional appearance at the weekly ritual that is Cake Thursday. But summer also means another important thing: namely, booze.
Now, we know what you’re thinking – every season is booze season, right? Well, right. But in order to fully appreciate the delights of summer, one really ought to plan one’s boozing with care. A Red Stripe in some field just won’t cut it this year. Which is why we were delighted to hear about three rather snazzy new summer-time cocktails from the folks at Southern Comfort. So delighted in fact, that we’ve decided to share them with you:
Louisiana Jam
With fruit juice and apricot jam to complement the Southern Comfort, this is a splendidly thirst-quenching little drink, perfect for pre, post, or mid-cricket refreshment. Plus, it’s served in a jam jar!

Mississippi Mule
Lime + Ginger Beer + Angostura Bitters + Southern Comfort = Zing-time! Plus it’s so simple, even us idiots can make it.

Bayou Fruit Cup
Featuring whatever summer berries you fancy and a splash of Martini Rosso (mmmm) this is the Hyacinth Bouquet of Southern Comfort cocktails. Ideal for all those garden parties we’re planning to wear our new cream linen suits to…
