Nonetheless, airlines stock more drinks than you’d think to ask for, and thanks to this revealing infographic which details all the cocktails one can put together using the right ingredients, your next jaunt away might feel a little bit more special.

Whether it’s something strong for a nightcap, or a pick-me-up to ensure you make it through the remainder of that Taken sequel you couldn’t be bothered to watch when it was out in cinemas, this list should have you covered.
