Cocktails.........
1.Vodka Martini
Ingredients
· 3 ounces vodka
· 1 teaspoon French vermouth

Instructions
Shake the ingredients well with cracked ice and strain into a chilled cocktail glass and garnish with a twist (or an olive).
Ingredients
· 2 ounces rye whisky
· 3/4 ounce lemon juice
· 3/4 ounce orange juice
· 1 teaspoon grenadine
Glass Type: cocktail glass
Instructions
Shake the whiskey, fresh-squeezed juices, and a scant teaspoon of grenadine well with cracked ice, then strain into a chilled cocktail glass. This one also makes a fine cooler: Simply strain into a Collins glass half-full of cracked ice and top to taste with club soda or seltzer.Ingredients
· 2 ounces 101-proof bourbon
· 3/4 ounce lemon juice
· 3/4 ounce orange juice
· 1 teaspoon grenadine
Glass Type: Collins glass

Shake bourbon (or, more authentically, rye), the juices, and the grenadine in a cocktail shaker with cracked ice. Pour unstrained into a sturdy glass and top off with club soda to taste.
4.Whiskey Sour
Ingredients
· 2 ounces bourbon
· 2/3 ounce lemon juice
· 1 teaspoon superfine sugar
Glass Type: cocktail glass
Instructions
Shake the bourbon, juice, and sugar well with cracked ice, then strain into a chilled cocktail glass. Resist, if you can, the impulse to decorate lavishly with fruit, although a maraschino cherry will raise no eyebrows.
5.White elephant
Ingredients
· 2 ounces London dry gin
· 1 ounce Italian vermouth
· 1 egg whites
Glass Type: cocktail glass
Instructions
Shake well with cracked ice, then strain into a chilled cocktail glass.
Ingredients
· 2 ounces London dry gin
· 1/2 ounce Cointreau
· 1/2 ounce lemon juice
· 1 egg whites
Glass Type: cocktail glass
Instructions
Shake well with cracked ice, then strain into a chilled cocktail glass.
Ingredients
· 1 1/2 ounces vodka
· 3/4 ounce Kahlua
· 3/4 ounce heavy cream
Glass Type: old-fashioned glass
Instructions
Shake well with cracked ice, then strain into a chilled Old-Fashioned glass (it'll look less wicked than in a martini glass; that's important). Some folks build this one on the rocks, floating the cream on top.
7.White Wine Cup
Ingredients
· 1 bottle white burgundy
· 4 ounces sherry
· 1 ounce brandy
· 1 ounce anisette
· Rind of 1 lemon(s)
· superfine sugar
· 1 liter club soda
· mint
· pineapple(s)
Glass Type: punch bowl
Instructions
In a punch bowl, mix the white burgundy with the sherry, brandy, anisette, lemon rind, sugar, and club soda. Add a brick or two of ice. Garnish with thin slices of fresh pineapple and sprigs of mint.
8.Zombie
Ingredients
· 1/2 ounce white rum
· 1 1/2 ounces golden rum
· 1 ounce dark rum
· 1/2 ounce 151-proof rum
· 1 ounce lime juice
· 1 teaspoon pineapple juice
· 1 teaspoon papaya juice
· 1 teaspoon superfine sugar
Glass Type: Collins glass
Instructions
Stir together all these ingredients (the juice in the recipe is what mixologist David Embury calls the "mystery ingredient"; it can be pineapple juice, passion fruit nectar, coconut milk, apricot, or cherry brandy -- just about anything this side of Romilar) except the 151 and pour into a 14-ounce glass three-fourths full of cracked ice. Float the 151 as a lid (by pouring it into a spoon and gently dipping it under the surface of the drink). Then, if the spirit moves you, take a match to this mixture; it will burn. Garnish with mint or fruit.
9.Ace of Club
Ingredients
· 2 ounces golden rum
· 1/2 ounce white creme de cacao
· 1/2 ounce lime juice
· 1/2 teaspoon simple syrup
Glass Type: cocktail glass
Instructions
Shake ingredients well with cracked ice, then strain into a chilled cocktail glass. The original recipe calls for a full ounce of crème de cacao. The careful dripping of four drops (not dashes) of Angostura bitters on top of the drink, while not essential, will add a special something not to be sneezed at. Also, try to use Barbados rum, if you have it.
10.Admiral Vernons lime Grog
Ingredients
· 16 ounces lime juice
· 1 pound brown sugar
· 1 pint dark rum
· 1/2 gallon water
· 6 springs mint
Glass Type: Collins glass
Instructions
In a large bowl or jar, mix the fresh-squeezed lime juice and the brown sugar. Dilute with the water and rum (use an old-fashioned dark rum -- Jamaica, Demerara, Bermuda, like that). Drop in the mint. Refrigerate and serve on the rocks.
