This summer I got a gig working as a bartender and I've been learning about a bunch of new drinks and just wanted to hear what you guys have ever mixed up. Here are some of the common ones i get from time to time:

Screwdrivers
Madras - basically a screwdriver with splash of cranberry
Rum Punch - Cpt Morgan (or whatever spiced rum) mixed with pineapple juice, Cranberry, club soda, and top it off with Myer's Dark Rum
Lori - simple Vodka + Soda water + dash of cranberry
obvious drinks like Cosmopolitans, Manhattans, Martinis, etc.
Blue Hulk - Bombay Sapphire Gin, tonic, little bit of Blue Curacao
Transfusion - Vodka, grape juice, ginger ale

then you get all those 2 part drinks i.e. gin + tonic, rum + coke


PS. Why is the long island iced tea considered a bitch drink? It has a good amount of some hard liquor -- vodka, rum, tequila, gin. Same with a martini? It's basically straight up gin/vodka.

Got any good stuff to mix?

I've mixed Absolut Vanilla with root beer and it's tasted like a root beer float. I really want to try a shot called a chocolate cake shot. Frangelico liqueur is half of it and it smells amazingly good...almost like hot chocolate mix and the other half is some sort of vodka (usually vanilla vodka) with a splash of white cream on top. Sounds good.

I'm guessing most of you drink beer, no?
