Festival drinks are a big part of the festival experience. They help bring people together, and create a community feel among attendees.

You have many festival drinks choices, whether you want a refreshing mocktail to drink or a beer without alcohol. No longer are cider and water the only options.

Buckfast

Buckfast, also known as Bucky, is a fortified caffeinated wine made by monks from the village of Buckfastleigh, Devon. Known colloquially as ‘Bucky’ the drink has gained a reputation for its connection to antisocial behaviour, especially in Scottish housing estates and among young Glaswegians. It also has a number of celebrity fans, including Lewis Capaldi and Ed Sheeran who have been spotted swigging from the bottle on stage.

At a recent retailer’s event in Glasgow, a new cocktail, the Buckfast Bramble, was created. It combined gin, grenadine, and Buckfast to create a sophisticated drink. The Buckfast Bramble was a beautiful and elegant cocktail that perfectly embodied the concept of sprezzatura, or nonchalant elegance. We think this would be the perfect addition to festival drinks.

Jager Bomb

A shot of Jagermeister poured into a cup of energy drink will get your festival party going. This combination is known as a Jager Bomb, and it’s an essential part of any college drunken binge. Jagermeister, a German herbal liquor, is made of 56 different herbs and botanicals. It has a syrupy sweetness and notes of black licorice and ginseng. Curt Mast invented it in 1934, incorporating aspects of hunting, such as a haloed buck head, into the branding.

To make a Jager Bomb you will need to fill a tall drink half full with an energy beverage like Red Bull. Place a shot of Jagermeister over the drink. When the shot hits the energy drink, it creates a vibrant reaction and effervescence. Both drinks can be combined in one gulp to create a buzzy, delicious experience.

The best time to enjoy a Jager Bomb is when you’re at the festival, as it’s an ideal pairing for music and dancing.

Smoothies

Smoothies are an easy way to make a healthy snack, or even a meal. They are low in fat, high in fibre and provide all the benefits that fruit and vegetables offer.

Water

This can lead to dizziness, headaches and a weak or rapid heartbeat. In severe cases, it may even lead to seizures and loss consciousness. Dehydration is characterized by thirst, dark or strong-smelling urination, and a dried mouth or lips. Dehydration symptoms can be life-threatening if left untreated.
