We had lockdowns and level changes; we learned to work from anywhere and we reconnected with those we love. While we couldn't spend one-on-one time with everyone, though, we soon figured out ways to enjoy socialising with friends and family! Zoom cocktail hour became a 'thing'; you Clicked and Collected through Liquorland, got what you needed and hey presto - Friday drinks were no longer a thing of the past!

Winter was cold, but we had some fantastic recipes to warm us up. The warming powers of cognac, and the healing powers of chocolate are well known; Fiona Hugues' Chocolat Chaud (below) ticked all the boxes required to give us a bit of a hug. 

Then spring came, and with it - elections. So we did what we do best: we made cocktails! Our @Liquorland_NZ Instagram page was very divided as to which was best, Crusher Collins or Jacinda Sunrise? We've included both of them here so you can make your own mind up!

Now the sun is out (mostly, anyway) and the skies are blue - it's the perfect time to bring colour into our lives, and we've included a couple of fun drinks that are perfect for warmer weather - and for sharing over an actual table, not a computer!

2020 was a tricky year, but we did it - we made it through as a team. So to celebrate, we thought we'd share some of our favourite drinks and cocktails so you can make them all over again!
