Not a specific drink suggestion, but I really love βvector barβ. Itβs 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.

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 piΓ±a colada? (I feel guilty now)
some places may only have 1 blender and they have to clean it out after every use
Pineapple juice, whiskey, and a squeeze of lime is so much better than it should be.
Tie between Pisco Sour and Bloody Mary. Usually a night drinking the former will lead to the latter the next day.

Depending on how much money I've got, either rum and soda or vodka-martini.
That's for drinking at home, getting pantsdrunk.
I drink beer in the summer, bourbon whiskey in the winter. But I have a holiday tradition, on the solstice I buy myself a bottle of Lairds and spend the rest of the week mixing Jack Roses.
Jack Rose:
- 1 1/2 ounces applejack or apple brandy
- 3/4 ounces lemon or lime juice
- 1/2 ounce grenadine
Shake all ingredients until chilled, double strain into a coupe glass, garnish with lemon twist.
You'll basically never find a bar that stocks applejack, so if you want one you'll have to mix your own.
The Drunk Uncle
- 1 oz blended scotch
- 1/2 oz islay scotch
- 3/4 oz cynar
- 3/4 oz dry vermouth
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.
A gin and tonic with Squirt
Jameson Whiskey
Ginger Ale
Ice
Squeeze of lime
Lime slices
Tanqueray and cranberry juice with lime
Is your mind on your money?
And my money on my mind, yes.
back when i drank, mint julep.
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!
Moonlight Vodka Martini (own recipe)
- Two shots of Skyy vodka
- Dolin Dry Vermouth
- Dash of Grand Marnier
- Jigger of seltzer water
- Quick shake with a lot of crushed ice
- Garnished with garlic-stuffed green olive
