A SET of whacky cocktail recipes have been released - including a fish and chip martini.
Brighton-based swimwear brand Pour Moi teamed up with Hedonist Drinks to create four cocktail recipes that “capture the taste of the Great British summer”.

Pour Moi founder Michael Thomson said the brands customers usually would be enjoying a cocktail by the pool, so they chose to create original tipples for them to try that celebrate the Great British summer.
“Some of the recipes are a bit out-there, but that’s what makes them so fun,” he said.
“They’ll certainly be a talking point of your summer garden or pool party.”
Alongside the release of the weird and wonderful cocktails, Pour Moi also launched the 2021 Cocktail Report, which reveals the most Googled cocktail in every country around the world.
The Pornstar Martini is the most searched for cocktail in the world, and is also the most Googled cocktail in the UK.
