Gin and tonic - classic. Beefeaters for a dryer bite; Tanqueray for a bit sweeter cocktail.

Gin gimlet my friend. Gin, a squeeze of lime and a little bit of soda water. Enjoy.

Take a look at Hendricks gin, throw some of that over ice with Fever Tree tonic and a lime wedge and you've got yourself one hell of a G&T.

How about a nice manhattan? One part sweet vermouth, two parts whiskey, brandy, or scotch - whichever you prefer, a dash or two of bitters, shake with ice and strain into a manhattan glass, add a maraschino cherry and, voila! Good grits, Maynard.,

How about Everclear grain alcohol and fruit punch? Drank that from a communal Rubbermaid trash barrel at a frat party once. It's cheap...but on the downside, may cause blindness.

It's a little bit of work, but I love a good Old Fashioned. Get some orange slices and marachino cherries and "muddle" them (mash 'em up) in the bottom of a glass with a pinch of sugar (or as much as you want). Throw in a couple cubes of ice, add your favorite bourbon (I really like it with Maker's Mark) and add a dash of Angostura bitters. Some people like to add a splash of water or club soda. I don't, I just drink slow and let the ice take care of taking a little bite off.

After a web search, I found you can apparently make the same drink with gin, but I it looks like they leave out the orange and cherries. Called an Old Fashioned Gin Cocktail.

Hunch Punch! I too sir have drank this. It is deadly because you can't taste any alcohol. My friend (on the way back time machine) funneled this. Probably not the smartest idea. haha! Ahhh memories of College.
