[title maintitle="The American Bar at The Savoy launches Coast to Coast cocktail menu" subtitle=""] The world-renowned American Bar at The Savoy has launched its brand new cocktail menu called Coast To Coast. The Bikini Girls headed down to try it. [caption id="attachment_1808" align="alignnone" width="1024"] The American Bar[/caption] The recently-launched Coast to Coast menu at the Savoy's American Bar takes guests on a journey across Britain, one cocktail at a time. It's the perfect spot for cocktails! The term 'American Bar' refers to a bar serving mixed or 'American' style drinks, more commonly known as cocktails. From South to North, each drink is a vivid reflection of the country's landscapes, folklore and illustrious history, featuring herbs and common ingredients from the area.

So that Vicky and I could get the full experience, we sampled a cocktail from each one. I recommend you do the same. The journey is like being taken back to childhood fairy stories at bedtime - the most magical time. Except this time you're an adult, it involves booze, and real education about the great UK. The menu actually looks like an old English story book, with little illustrations to accompany the demystifying cocktail glossary.

In London, for example, guests are transported to the Savoy's very American Bar which contributed greatly to the birth of classy cocktail culture in the roaring twenties. Cocktails from this area are served on Art Deco mirror trays (perfect for a selfie op, on the advice of outstanding bartender Martin). From start to finish,...

Everyone knows that missing out on protein could result in loss of muscle mass and weaker hair, skin and nails… But many sources contain dairy in. So, whether you suffer from a dairy allergy or intolerance, choose to avoid it for health reasons or are vegan: Here are eight of the BEST plant based protein powders - that not only will help you nail your macronutrient goals, but they also taste amazing too! 1. Missfits Why we love it? Missfits is fairly new to the protein industry but is already a must-have from many fitness bloggers and instagrammers. It's crammed crammed with all of the essential nutrients we need for our body to function properly and unlike the others it is only stocked in sachets meaning it's a portable option to keep in your gym bag without weighing you down. Grams of protein? Missfits has 15 grams of protein per 25gram serving Best flavour? My favourite flavour was the berry sachet which I mix into my morning porridge oats and the unique coffee flavour – as a coffee addict it gave me the energy to get into the gym and push through a hard workout without so much of a sip of pre-workout! 12 Sachets available here for £20.00 2. Natures Plus - SPIRU-TEIN PureTrition Why we love it? Natures Plus is the definition of naughty but nice. It tasted way too good to be healthy, yet somehow it is! Filled with vitamins, minerals and chocolate-y goodness this protein powder is to die for. SPIRU-TEIN PureTrition is organic and soy-free for those who have issues with soy products, developed from organic rice, quinoa, spirulina and flaxseed. Grams of protein? PureTrition has 19 grams of protein per serving Best flavour? My favourite flavour has to be the dark chocolate protein which tastes SO much like real chocolate. I'm definitely a dark chocolate...
