Good whisky, neat
Decent whisky, bitters, club soda, ice in a short glass.
Gin, flavored fizzy (LaCroix etc), splash of lime juice, ice
Gin shaken with ice, small rinse of dry vermouth in glass, 3-4 blue cheese olives
4:3:3:4 añejo tequila, grand Marnier, key west lime juice, honey simple (50/50 honey and water) shaken or blended with ice. (Could sub honey for sugar free sweetener to be "healthy")
My favorite margarita is just 2oz tequila (yes añejo or reposado), 1oz orange liqueur, juice of one lime. No sweetener, the liqueur provides enough sweetness.
Jameson Whiskey
Ginger Ale
Ice
Squeeze of lime
Lime slices
My usuals are the Black Russian and the Gin and Tonic.
Black Russian = 1 jigger vodka, 1 jigger kahlua and coke, in a tall glass.
G&T = 2 jigger gin, a splash of Rose's lemon squash and tonic water, in a tall glass.
Tanqueray and cranberry juice with lime
Is your mind on your money?
And my money on my mind, yes.
i love fruity drinks, pina colada is my favorite but bartenders hate making it so i just go for whatever cocktail has coconut or pineapple flavor
Why do bartenders hate making piña colada? (I feel guilty now)
some places may only have 1 blender and they have to clean it out after every use
Not a specific drink suggestion, but I really love “vector bar”. It’s an app where you can track the ingredients you have on hand, and it will give you recipes based on what you have. It has a lot of other great features, too.
Aviation. I like gin and I don’t care for bitter much.
Tie between Pisco Sour and Bloody Mary. Usually a night drinking the former will lead to the latter the next day.
Sub "Caesar" for "Bloody Mary" and I'm down.

Depending on how much money I've got, either rum and soda or vodka-martini.
That's for drinking at home, getting pantsdrunk.
The paloma sounds amazing. Thank you.
I'm revisiting the classic Old Fashion. I love it.
I've been experimenting with my own, and this one is my new fave.
Jelly Baby
2 oz peach Eddies
0.5 oz aperol
3 oz pineapple juice
2 oz Squirt soda
Splash peach syrup
I love fruity strong cocktails and this one tastes just like jelly babies. It's so good!
I don't usually go for cocktails, but when I do I really like a peaty whiskey sour, or a boilermaker with Guinness or a session IPA and again a peaty whiskey.
