Cocktails. Reviews. You get the idea. No numbered rating because a drinks it often depends on which spirit is used and the skills of the bartender.

The unforgettables

  • Daiquiri
    Citrusy and sweet. Nicely complex and balanced with the commonly added fruit.
  • Manhattan
    A popular variation is a **Rob Roy** which has Scotch instead of Bourbon. A controversial variation on that in turn is the **Blood and Sand**. It has no official recipe and is difficult to get right. It can be very good, like a blood orange twist on a Negroni as they both have Vermouth and orange.
  • Whiskey sour
    Can be fantastic when sweet, but sometimes more on the sour side. It's like a lemonade but more interesting. The variation, Amaretto sour is amazing and like drinking almond perfume.

Contemporary classics

  • Margarita
    Not for everyone because of the bitter Cointreau liqueur. But I liked it.
  • Piña Colada
    Nice mix of coconut and pineapple in crushed ice. Usually very sweet.
