Everyone loves a fruity cocktail on a hot summer's day or even on an evening out.
Why are they so great though? Because they are exciting. Mixologists can be so creative with flavours, colours and presentation. If you want a long drink, a short drink, a sweet drink, a sour drink, there will always be a cocktail out there to suit your tastes.
So for all of you Northamptonshire cocktail enthusiasts - who want to be spoiled for choice when they go out for drinks - we have compiled a short list of bars in the county that have extensive cocktail menus
