A three-ingredient dark rum sour in which passion fruit syrup stands in for plain sugar, giving a Daiquiri frame a tart tropical perfume.

A rye whiskey sour that splits its citrus between lemon and orange and takes its sweetness and blush from a spoonful of grenadine.
OpenWardman Park
A stirred after-dinner drink of dry sherry, grape brandy and Drambuie: nutty and dry up front, honeyed and herbal on the finish.

A mule built on apple brandy rather than vodka: baked-apple depth, sharp lime and ginger syrup, a heavy hand of Angostura, and soda to lengthen.
OpenWhiskey Apple Highball
Two ingredients and nothing to hide behind: a shot of rye whiskey lengthened with apple juice over ice, crisp, lightly spicy and very easy to drink.

A Negroni stretched into a gin and tonic: a full measure of gin with small pours of Campari and sweet vermouth under tonic, finished with orange and rosemary.

A Scotch sour sweetened with honey and warmed by allspice dram, with a small measure of cherry liqueur sinking through it as a red streak.

OpenWinterized Negroni
A gin-forward Negroni with a half-spoon of peaty Islay Scotch stirred in, adding a thread of smoke to the bittersweet orange.
OpenWisconsin Old Fashioned
The Old Fashioned as Wisconsin drinks it: brandy instead of whiskey, built over orange and cherry muddled with a little sugar.

A sunny rum sour in which Galliano's vanilla and anise meet orange liqueur and fresh lime.

A white-wine spritzer given a makeover: bergamot liqueur and grapefruit juice under grapefruit soda — light, perfumed and gently bitter.
OpenYuzu Negroni
A pale, White Negroni-style stir of gin, gentian liqueur and Americano aperitif wine with a small pour of sake; use a yuzu sake if you can, for the citrus the name promises.
OpenZombie Apocalypse
A Zombie riff that splits the base between two rums and apple brandy, layered with grenadine, pineapple, passion fruit and cinnamon syrups, falernum and a dash of absinthe.

OpenSpaceface
A blanco tequila sour sweetened with pineapple syrup and honey, with a spoonful of crème de menthe and fresh mint for a cool finish.

Reposado tequila and a measure of mezcal stirred with a bittersweet Italian amaro — agave, gentle smoke and orange peel in a short, dry sipper.

A silky gin sour with green Chartreuse and egg white: bright lemon, alpine herbs and a soft white foam on top.

A festive alcohol-free punch: a quick cranberry syrup simmered with ginger, cinnamon, star anise and rosemary, lengthened with cranberry juice, orange juice and soda.

A big blended tiki drink: three rums whirled with orange and lemon juice, passion fruit syrup and a touch of vanilla into a tart, slushy cooler.

Blended Scotch and apple brandy share the base equally, rounded with vanilla syrup and a small bitter-orange accent from Aperol.

A rye julep given extra depth by a measure of Jamaican rum and a blush of grenadine, served over a mound of crushed ice under a mint bouquet.

Gin and triple sec shaken with plenty of fresh orange juice, a squeeze of lime and a dash of bitters — a sunny, juicy classic.
