As the weather changes, there's no need to give up your favourite tipple.

Who says whisky is not a summer drink? Try these Jameson Irish Whiskey cocktails to keep you cool through the heat.

Ginger & Lime

Always reliable, always delicious. Known the world over as the Jameson 'signature serve', this is really a cocktail for all occasions. However, nothing beats that night out with friends with a JGL in your hand!

Ingredients: 60ml of Jameson, Ginger Ale, ice cubes, 1 wedge lime.

How To Make: Fill a high ball glass with ice and pour in a shot of Jameson. Top up the glass with a good quality ginger ale and stir briefly to mix. Take a large wedge of lime, give it a squeeze and drop it into the glass. Roughly 1 part Jameson to 3 parts ginger ale, all parts refreshing.

The Saint's Sour

As after-dinner cocktails go, the whiskey sour is one of the most famous, and for good reason. By mixing Irish whiskey and lemon juice with egg white and bitters, you get a delicious classic cocktail that has really stood the test of time. Plus, with the addition of Jameson Black Barrel, you get the added bonus of enhanced spiciness, vanilla sweetness and sherry fruit in what is already a very tasty cocktail.
