A COLD mojito in the sunshine or a warming Old Fashioned in front of the fire?

What’s your favourite cocktail?

Do you prefer a pina colada or a margarita? Does a Long Island Iced Tea take your fancy or would you rather have an espresso martini?

Tomorrow, Saturday, May 13, is World Cocktail Day – a whole day dedicated to the alcoholic drink.

What is your favourite cocktail and where in Mid Cheshire serves the best?

In our Best of 2023 competition, we’ve searched for Mid Cheshire’s Best for Hair and Best for Pies, and then Best for Nails and Best for Roast Dinner, and our next category will focus on cocktails.

We know there are lots of great places serving classic cocktails – and a few modern ones as well - in Mid Cheshire so, let us know who deserves to be featured in our final shortlist and why.

It’s no easy feat to choose a winner, which is why we’ll be handing over the final decision to those who know best – our readers.

HOW IT WORKS:

Each Friday morning we will reveal new categories via our social media pages and ask you who is the best. Nominations will then close each Monday morning at 12pm.

Every Thursday we will publish a shortlist of finalists with voting officially opening.

You will be able to vote in one of three ways:

- By commenting under the relevant post on our Northwich Guardian, Winsford and Middlewich Guardian and Knutsford Guardian Facebook and Twitter pages = 1 vote

- By entering via the online article on our Northwich and Winsford Guardian and Knutsford Guardian websites = 2 votes

- By entering via our Northwich and Winsford Guardian and Knutsford Guardian newspaper = 5 votes

The following Wednesday evening we will announce the winner of that category on social media.

Usual Newsquest competition rules apply.

So, get in touch with your cocktail nominations and tell us who is amazing enough to be one of our Best Of 2023 finalists.

To make your nomination go to facebook.com/northwichguardian, facebook.com/winsfordandmiddlewichguardian or facebook.com/knutsfordguardiannews, or find us on Twitter @northwichnews, @winsfordnews or knutsfordnews

Alternatively you can email your nomination, telling us the name of the place serving the best cocktails, where they are based and why they deserve to be shortlisted, to heidi.summerfield@newsquest.co.uk

Don’t forget to keep an eye on our website and our social media each Friday morning, when we will launch a new Best of 2023 search and then every Thursday to vote for your favourite from our shortlist.
