How did you score?

• 22-24:  I will drink anything as long as it’s Champagne darling!
  You will likely be spotted by a ‘pap’ sipping champagne, under your cabana, the envy of all fellow poolside residents.  After all it’s not what you know it’s who you know.
  
  
• 18-22: It’s all about the cocktail list challenge!
  Whether you start at the bottom or top, your good intentions of doing the whole list fade probably by day 4 and by the end of your stay the bartender is already shaking and pouring your favourite as you approach the bar!
• 16 – 18: On the rocks or with a splash and a dash
  The local version is so not the same as your usual brand… but after the first night of ‘local’ measures your tastebuds have adjusted.  On returning back to the UK you are convinced that your choice of spirit drink is missing the alcohol??  “You call that a measure?”
  
  
• 13-15: Bottle or draught…decisions, decisions
  Is it mid-day yet?  Is it too early to have a beer?  Oh…..im on holiday what the heck!  My late afternoon you are wondering if you should maybe have a water, as you don’t want to dehydrate.  But hey, beer is a fluid!  Im on holiday!
  
  
•  6-12: I’m on holiday I’ll have a bottle!
  Whether you choose to have a bottle over dinner or at leisure in a bar, it is an alternative way to sample the ‘local’ culture.  It’s a great way to read up on the local vineyards and sample local flavours.  It is after all a local produce!
