Different Types of Cocktails

From a classic martini to a minty mojito, there are tons of cocktails that people know and love! In this quiz, we tell you what cocktail best matches your personality. If you're curious to learn more about the most popular cocktails out there, here's a quick overview to explore:[1]


Old Fashioned
An Old Fashioned is a spirit-forward cocktail made by combining whiskey, sugar, bitters, and water. It's traditionally served in a short, heavy-bottomed rocks glass over a large ice cube, and garnished with an orange twist or a cocktail cherry.

  • Mixologist Sander Raav calls an Old Fashioned a “mother” cocktail.[2] In other words, it's one of five foundational drinks that every other cocktail derives from![3]
  • According to mixologist Karim McLaren, an Old Fashioned should always be stirred and served over a big rock.[4]


Margarita
A margarita is a classic cocktail made with tequila, orange liqueur, and fresh lime juice, often served in a glass with a salted or sugared rim. It can be served on the rocks (shaken with ice and strained into a glass filled with ice cubes), straight up (shaken with ice but strained into a chilled stemmed glass without ice), or frozen.


Mojito
A mojito is a traditional Cuban cocktail made with fresh mint leaves, lime juice, sugar, white rum, and soda water. It belongs to the highball and fizz cocktail families, since it has a base spirit lengthened with a carbonated mixer.


Piña Colada
McLaren says a piña colada is a classic Caribbean drink, made with fresh pineapple, coconut cream, and light rum.[7] In Spanish, the name translates to “strained pineapple.” It's usually served either blended or shaken with ice.

  • Fun fact: The piña colada has been the official national drink of Puerto Rico since 1978.


Negroni
A Negroni is a bright red Italian cocktail made of equal parts gin, sweet vermouth, and Campari (an iconic Italian apértif, or alcoholic liqueur). It's typically served over ice in a rocks glass and garnished with an orange slice or peel.


Martini
Raav says the martini is a classic vermouth-based cocktail.[9] It's made with gin and dry vermouth, stirred with ice, and served in a chilled v-stemmed glass. It's often garnished with a green olive or a twist of lemon.

  • Traditionally, a martini always uses gin, but a vodka martini is a widely accepted modern variation.


French 75
A French 75 is a bubbly cocktail made with gin, fresh lemon juice, simple syrup, and Champagne. It's considered the elevated, stronger version of the Tom Collins, swapping out club soda for sparkling wine.

  • Fun fact: The drink dates back to World War I and was named after the French 75 mm field gun.


Long Island Iced Tea
A Long Island Iced Tea is a potent IBA official cocktail made by combining vodka, tequila, white rum, Cointreau, gin, lemon juice, simple syrup, and a splash of cola. Despite its name, the drink doesn't contain any tea; it's only called that because of its amber, tea-like color.
