Every Friday, Company's Agony Uncle, Mikey Melis, and Lisa The Lush create their very own Ocado cocktail for you to try at the weekend...
All through November (or Movember as it's now called!) us girls at Company have been encouraging the men in our lives to grow a mo (that's tash to you and me) in aid of The Prostate Cancer Charity. Guys across the country have been forsaking their razors in favour of lip fuzz, and the lovely people at Finlandia Vodka and mixologists The Soulshakers have been supporting them by creating a range of mo-vellous cocktails. They're on sale now at selected stylish bars across the country and each is sipped through a straw to avoid any froth hiding the 'mo'! Money from the sale of each drink goes to The Prostate Cancer Charity.
Lisa The Lush was lucky enough to attend a Movember masterclass, where she was shown just how to make these limited-edition cocktails…
…and here's her shot (geddit?) at making her very own Movember Rain in the glamorous surroundings of the Company office…
LISA SAYS: This was so good I really didn't want to pass it round the office for testing! Absolutely delicious - fresh, fruity and I'm going straight back to the kitchen to make another one!
LISA GIVES THE MOVEMBER RAIN 10/10
MIKEY SAYS: Yum with a capital Y! if I wasn't about to hop onto my scooter, I would have downed the lot. Really refreshing and my favourite so far I think!
