From beer gardens to rooftop terraces – these are the top spots to make the most of the Irish summer

Deciding on the perfect spot to perch on a sunny day just got a whole lot easier.

If there's one thing we can agree on, it's that the Irish summer is one of the best fortnights of the year.

OK, that may be an exaggeration, but with the unpredictable nature of Irish weather, there certainly is a pressure to make the absolute most of the gorgeous - but fleeting! - sunny days of summer.

When the sun does make its appearance, we like to make the absolute most of it. The group chat is fired up, our sunnies are in the ready position and the factor 50 has been generously applied.

The final piece in the Irish summer formula? A sunny spot to soak up the vibes in great company.

As it turns out, the folks at Jack Daniel's Flavours understand just how precious these sunny days are, which is why their latest endeavour, Sláinte to the Sun, is all about chasing those rays.

To help us squeeze every last beam of sunshine out of these sunny days, Jack Daniel's Flavours have put together a definitive guide to some of the best sun-traps in Ireland. From beer gardens where the sun dapples through lush trees to rooftop terraces that are ideal for golden hour, these sun traps are great spots to catch up with pals over the next few weeks.

Once you've settled on your favourite sun-trap, the next question is what's in your glass? Well, we recommend you toast to the summer sunshine with either a refreshing Jack Daniel's Flavours Honey and Lemonade or a Jack Daniel's Flavours Apple and Lemonade. These drinks are smooth, elevated and full of flavour - and they complement these sunny days beautifully.
