Cancel all your plans, Love Island is back once again! We’re in for another long, hot summer as everyone’s favourite dating show returns to our screens. With a brand new group of stunning contestants, there’s one thing you can still count on – lots of romance, friendships and, of course, drama!
Instead of hitting the town with the girls, you’re inviting them around yours to watch Love Island and god have we missed it! And what could possibly impress your guests more than lining up shots and playing a drinking game, because we’re all asking ourselves, “What do they drink on Love Island”? The answer, by the way, is beer or wine. So, get a few bottles in, follow our Love Island Drinking Game rules, swap the party dresses for some loungewear sets, and the party buzz will be going before you know it. Happy drinking!

#1 – Take a Sip Every Time Someone Says “I’ve Got a Text!”
You knew it was coming! It wouldn’t be a Love Island drinking game without drinking every time someone gets a text. We’re starting off seriously here with what has to be THE most said phrase in the whole show. As soon as you hear the noise you know what to do! Pick up your drink and take a sip.
#2 – Take a Shot Every Time Someone Says ‘Can I pull you for a chat?’
It won’t take you long to start feeling this one. “Can I pull you for a chat?” has to be followed by “I’ve got a text” on the most said phrases of the show. It’s iconic, but here it’ll be infamous in our Love Island drinking game. We’ll give it five minutes before your heels come off and you’re giggling with the girls, drink in hand. Our game doesn’t hold back!
#3 – Take a Shot Every Time There’s a Gross Tonguey Kiss
To make things really interesting, a big moment like this needs to be commemorated with a shot of your and your guest’s choice. A bit of a peck you can get away with, but whenever there’s a kiss on screen and it’s getting a bit intense with a little too much tongue action, it’s bottoms up!
#4 – Drink When a Contestant Mentions Their Type Or Ideal Partner
“He’s so my type on paper”, we’ve heard it so many times. You’ll be wishing the islanders would talk about something else by the second ad break, but they just can’t resist and, honestly, neither can we. Why not have a think about your own type while you sit there in your latest set of co-ords? And have an extra drink whenever they describe someone who’s just your type on paper.
#5 – Whenever There’s a Dramatic Recoupling, Finish Your Drink.
If there’s one thing you can rely on in catching this year’s season, it’s of course a dramatic recoupling. There’s really no more dramatic or shocking moment, is there? If you’re behind, you might want to put your drinks down when things look like they could drastically switch up because you’re about to start screaming at the TV. So, raise a glass to all the dramatic recouplings we’re sure are to come.
#6 – Take a Sip Every Time a Contestant Says “I’m here for love”
Aren’t we all? Do you believe them when they say it? Sometimes we’re not so sure. If we’re not watching for love, we’re definitely watching for fashion and to see what gorg bikini sets the girls will be wearing on the day. Have a scroll, get inspired and picture yourself sunning on the day beds in your latest bikini, while you sip your wine and play our romp of a Love Island drinking game.
#7 – Swap Drinks With Someone When Someone Talks About How Fit Someone They Aren’t Coupled Up With Is
Swap drinks like they swap partners! As soon as they get settled, it seems like the islander’s eyes start wandering. To be honest, with all the eye candy in there we can’t really blame them, can we? Wandering eyes are clearly an occupational hazard of being an islander. So if you’re eyeing up your friend’s drink, sit tight because it will probably be coming your way within the next five minutes. Swap that drink!
#8 – If a Contestant Cries, Take a Sip
Okay, you might need to bring the bottle out for this one, and the tissues. If they aren’t laughing they’re crying, and there will definitely be some tear-jerking moments to come this season. The second you see someone start to well up, take a sip! You might want to keep hold of your drink though because those islanders are always emotional. Who can blame them? It’s hard in there. Just make sure, if you cry along with an islander, take an extra sip!
#9 – Take a Sip Every Time Joey Comes Out With One of His Catchphrases
By this point, you’re probably pretty far gone, but if you needed an extra opportunity to spice things up, this rule will make it a really interesting game. Every time the start of the season TOWIE fave Joey Essex comes out with one of his catchphrases, like calling something “reem” or calling someone a “sort”, it’s time to take a sip of your drink. If you weren’t already feeling a little tipsy, there’s no way you won’t now!
#10 – Start a Waterfall Every Time You’re Blinded by Veneers
With this year’s great pairs of gnashers on show, this one could be a little risky, but all the more fun because of it! Whenever someone’s veneers are dazzling the screen, to the point where you and the girls are shielding your eyes, start a waterfall from the person you all agree is the least tipsy. That person has full control of when the waterfall stops and starts, as everyone has to drink as long as the person to the left of them does. Probably best to do like the islanders and get your sunglasses on the ready!
