As you may know FIRE Restaurant and Lounge on Dublin’s Dawson Street [at the Mansion House] will open and welcome guests Tomorrow Good Friday.
While operating in full compliance with the licensing laws, the award winning FIRE’s decision to open dramatically improves the options for tourists and locals this Good Friday as one of the very few restaurants open in the city.
Open in the lounge from midday, and in the restaurant from 1pm ‘til late, FIRE has created a special menu of non-alcoholic cocktails, and carefully sourced non-alcoholic wines to complement the new, exciting menus. As required by law, all beer taps and alcohol will be covered, but FIRE’s stunning interior, glamorous cocktail lounge and terrace overlooking the Lord Mayor’s garden will ensure a memorable dining experience.
We have dinner for TWO for tomorrow night to giveaway to a Broadsheet reader.
To enter, and for the day that’s in it, we would like YOU to suggest the perfect non-alcoholic drink (cocktail, soft drink or concoction of your own making).
LInes MUST close at 5.15 5.45 7pm
(winner notified this evening)
Fire
Update: Winner –
Kate: “Finn’s non-fishy Good Friday Fizz – Ginger beer, soda water, mango puree or juice, crushed raspberries, lime juice and a sprig of crushed mint.
Finn is the old man, just started his new job in the Fish Shop (of Blackrock Market, they’re opening another soon opposite The Dice Bar) – I’d love to give him a treat and as a Pilates teacher I have feck all money so it’ll be fishes and loaves OR Fire :O)”
Thanks all.
The créme egg !
Vahlrona Hot Chocolate, egg whites and yokes!
BYOW comes to mind
Vitriol.
MiWadi and water.
Just in case anyone needs instructions for preparing that amazing concoction.
~ Unscrew the cap, sometimes this is easier said than though. I’d say 1 in every 30 times you get a bottle where the little ring bit and the cap are fused together so their basically a solid lump of plastic. There are probably YouTube tutorials available to help you deal with that, but you might need an adult present.
~ Get a glass, or a plastic cup if you want to relive your days in playschool.
~ Pour the MiWadi into the container, I usually have the double concentrate stuff so I pour in enough so that it’s about 10-15% MiWadi. Some people have their own personal preferences regarding the strength so you can play with that to find what works best for you.
~ Go to the tap. Don’t make the mistake of using the hot water tap, I cannot not stress this enough. Run the cold tap for about 5 seconds BEFORE you add it to the MiWadi. Yes I know with water charges this might worry some, but trust me it’s worth it.
~ You may want to add a few cubes of ice. I personally like the jingling sound that ice makes when it swirls around in the glass, but I mean if you’re annoyed by the sound then probably don’t bother.
~ Finally and most importantly – enjoy ;)
And never have late in the evening or you’ll wet the bed, won’t you Jeremy?
The pros outweigh the cons as far as I’m concerned.
Thanks, nice tut.
Thanks man :)
“I personally like the jingling sound” ….:0)
Miwadi with water and an umbrella
mi-wadi is nothing without a marietta biscuit.
Heated 7-Up innit.
Pineapple juice, fresh cream and sprinkle of cinnamon and nutmeg over ice.
Roz Purcell…again & again & again…
I think that’s a different type of cocktail.
Oooh matron.
A Virgin Mary , followed by a Safe Sex on the Beach………….
Cranberry juice (the unsweetened one) +
juice of 2 limes +
juice of a lemon +
umpteen dashes of Angostura Bitters
Serve on ice with lime slices and fresh mint and top up with sparkling water.
Divine dahling, diVINE.
Milk
the award winning FIRE eh
your eating house’s name is shit
Let Rosemary soak into boiling water, and cool. Add juiced cranberries, apples and rosemary sprigs as garnish.
Not a bad fate for the Easter Sunday leftovers!
Who’s Rosemary, your missus?
Lol
Nyomopolitan
Coconut water, squeezed lemon juice, sugar and lavender syrup.
Nyom.
BYOVodka?
How about a hot ginger beer, a FIRE-EY concoction if you will. *drumroll*

The Mighty Mo
Equal parts of Cranberry Juice and Orange Juice. Add passion fruit to taste.
Yum
Pear Flavour Sparkling Kerry Spring Water, Serve in a pint glass thats been wetted and placed in the freezer for 40 minutes, with a good hand full of ice cubes.
This is called Flaps cocktail
3 oz Pineapple Juice
1 tsp Grenadine
4 oz Lemonade (7up is good or cream soda!)
2 Raspberry
1 part Lime Wedge
Put lemonade into a highball glass, add pineapple juice and grenadine all the while mixing and then add the two raspberries. Add the lime wedge on the glass…
Flaps
Its called the ‘Roz in the Snozz.’
1) Take a mouthful of warm water; a good tip is to check the temperature on your wrist to make sure it’s not too hot first.
2) Cut a line of Lactose Free SMA milk powder across Roz Purcell’s delightful naked derriere or chest, whichever is your preference.
3) Snort the milk powder using a crisp, fake fifty euro note. I enjoy my fake notes when they are still warm from the photocopier.
4) Quickly swallow the warm water to enjoy a delicious and healthy milk drink which is full of vitamin D and calcium.
It is easy to make and a real conversation piece.

El Gran Nojito
1. Curse self for forgetting to buy alcohol before Good Friday

A bead of Roz’s sweat after a vigorous workout would be heaven’s juice
Mannequins don’t secrete.
You’re all so fancy. A good cup of tea is the solution to all of Good Friday problems.
Cranberry juice, 7 up, squeeze of lemon and crushed ice xx this is my own drink . me and my partner would love this as a nights date haven’t had one in months be a nice treat

mix three parts roscommon tap “water ” with one part water from the river of bile and shake sinisterly, chill with a frozen smartphone in 2 pint glasses
I was born in good Friday, the only day of the year they couldn’t whet my head.. In my parents honour it would have to be a concoction of tea and milk! Exotic!
The fake Guinness of my childhood of course…. Coke with an ice cream head..
A mango-rita – orange juice, lime juice, agave syrup, blended mango and passionfruit, sprite and lime slices
