3. Negroni

For a Eurovision cocktail with some iconic flair, try a classic Negroni. It is bold, sophisticated, and full of flavour – just like the Eurovision performers themselves. With its blend of Bulldog Gin, Campari, and Cinzano Vermouth Rosso, it is an ideal way to add a touch of elegance and excitement to your Eurovision viewing experience—whether you are hosting a party or simply enjoying the show from the comfort of your couch. 

4. Mojito

Be sure to add the refreshing and minty Mojito to your Eurovision cocktail ideas. A sweet, sparkly sip with a crunchy muddle, it comes together effortlessly using Trois Rivières White Rum, lime, mint, sugar, and a little soda water for a fizzy finish. We suggest pairing it with Cuban sandwiches or ceviche and nachos.   

5. Aviation

Eurovision cocktail recipes with a little dramatic edge, anyone? The Aviation cocktail is one we like to shake up whenever we’re in the mood for something sultry yet whimsical. Featuring the heady sweet-yet-sour flavour combo of gin and cherry liqueur, this striking cocktail also has a singular hue thanks to the addition of Crème de Violette. A unique choice and always a showstopper. 

6. Paloma

The pretty Paloma is a guaranteed crowd-pleaser that always goes down a treat. To make a batch, use our handy pitcher guide to calculate quantities, and combine Espolón Tequila Blanco, fresh grapefruit juice, lime juice, and agave nectar in a pitcher and mix.  

When you serve it to your guests, add 90ml of the pre-made Paloma to a glass over ice, and top it off with club soda. A salted rim is a nice touch and fresh grapefruit rounds it off perfectly.

7. French Martini

Sweet, smooth, sophisticated, and perfect for impressing at your 2024 Eurovision cocktail party, the French Martini is a very approachable drink finished with a creamy foam top for an extra indulgent serve. This oh-so-suave cocktail is so fruity it’s like a dessert in a glass and pairs wonderfully with a platter of Prosciutto, well-aged gouda cheese, fig jam, and sliced baguette.   

8. Cuba Libre

Eurovision cocktails don’t get simpler than the popular Cuba Libre. Made with a classic combination of white rum, coke, and lime, it’s a refreshing cocktail that captures a festive party spirit and is loved around the world. 

9. Bellini

Eurovision-inspired cocktails with a hint of fruity sparkle? Don’t mind if we do!  Our recipe for Bellini includes peach-infused vodka as well as Prosecco. It’s a little feistier than the classic, taking the alcohol content to just over 15 % ABV. If you are looking for a low-proof cocktail for a lighter serve, then just skip the vodka. 

10. Clover Club

The Clover Club Cocktail is a fantastic all-rounder drink that suits just about any occasion. Tangy, frothy, bright pink, and just lovely to look at, it is an excellent option for an after-dinner drink and pairs well with easy-to-eat dessert bites like candied nuts or fruity cake pops. 

11. Ramos Gin Fizz  

Velvety, citrusy, and sweet, the Ramos Gin Fizz has a gorgeous frothy texture and a picture-perfect foamy head. This classic cocktail hails from the 1880s but has made a big comeback lately, and we love it for its retro-cool vibe.
