Behind every stir, behind every shake, behind every ingredient… there lies a hidden, psychological meaning. Or so Hugo’s cocktail consultants believe! Admittedly, it’s interesting to ponder just how or why different people favour certain drinks more often than others. Here’s our analysis – read on to find out just which cocktail we think suits you best.
The Social Butterfly
You calendar is chock-full, your phone never stops buzzing and your ideal Saturday night is tearing up the dancefloor with your best buddies. People love spending time with you – you’re always the life of the party and can always be relied on to liven things up, even during the most boring of events.
Your perfect cocktail: The Margarita. It’s bright and colourful to match your sparkling personality! The fact that it’s usually available in different flavours symbolises your need to switch things up every so often to stop yourself from getting bored.
The Explorer
In another life, you were a pirate or an adventurer, always seeking new thrills or experiences to add to your scrapbook. You love meeting people from all around the world and learning about different cultures and traditions. You probably know how to speak a score of language, though Japanese… let’s just say that it’s a work in progress.
Your perfect cocktail: The Mojito. This drink usually takes quite some time to prepare, during which you can tell the bartender all about your recent trip to Thailand.
The Boss
Started from the bottom, now you’re here! You’ve achieved success through nothing but hard work, perseverance and boatloads of ambition. Despite this, you still treat old friends, family and your colleagues with great respect, never forgetting your roots or where you came from.
Your perfect cocktail: The Old-Fashioned. You know what you want and how to get it, and this particular cocktail is in the hands of whoever’s ordering it – from the number of ice cubes included to how you want it garnished.
The Intellectual
Nietzsche, Chomsky, Voltaire, Dostoevsky… you’ve read it all. Conversations about the Kardashians make your ears bleed – in fact, you don’t have any time whatsoever for celebrity news. Your favourite films were probably made 70 years ago, produced by some obscure French director who just had way too many syllables in his name. That being said, your friends know that they’ll never get bored talking to you, because you always have something to say – just as long as you keep the existentialism to a bare minimum!
Your perfect cocktail: The Martini. It’s a drink that’s been associated with heavy thinking and sophistication for years.
