A martini cocktail

A cocktail is a mixed drink typically made with a distilled liquor (such as arrack, brandy, cachaça, gin, rum, tequila, vodka, or whiskey) as its base ingredient that is then mixed with other ingredients or garnishments. Sweetened liqueurs, wine, or beer may also serve as the base or be added. If beer is one of the ingredients, the drink is called a beer cocktail.

Cocktails often also contain various types of juice, fruit, honey, milk or cream, spices, or other flavorings. Cocktails may vary in their ingredients from bartender to bartender, and from region to region. Two creations may have the same name but taste very different because of differences in how the drinks are prepared.

This article is organized by the primary type of alcohol (by volume) contained in the beverage. Cocktails marked with "IBA" are designated as IBA official cocktails by the International Bartenders Association, and are some of the most popular cocktails worldwide.

Strawberry

[edit]

Strawberries can be muddled or puréed and added to many drinks, and they are liquor-friendly, being compatible with, e.g., bourbon whiskey,<ref>Template:Cite web</ref> Cointreau, vodka, tequila, rum, and Champagne,<ref name="strawberrymint">Template:Cite web</ref> among other spirits and liqueurs and so on.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref>

Some recipes call for a strawberry syrup that can be made using strawberries, vanilla extract, sugar, and water.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref> Some strawberry cocktail recipes do not call for a syrup, but rely on puréed strawberries to play that part.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref>

Strawberries are often mixed with basil.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref> Strawberry is popular in smashes since after the beverage has been drunk, the alcohol-infused strawberries can be consumed as well.

Carrot juice

[edit]

Carrot juice can be mixed with spirits such as agave spirits, whiskey, tequila, gin, or mezcal. Vodka is sometimes chosen because its neutral taste allows more of the carrot juice taste to shine through. Carrot juice can also be mixed with liqueurs such as amaro. ginger, orange, lemon and honey can be other ingredients in carrot juice cocktails. Turmeric infusions are also common. Examples of drinks made with carrot juice include:<ref>Template:Cite web</ref>

Smashed fruit

[edit]

A smash is a casual icy julep (spirits, sugar, and herb)<ref>Template:Cite web</ref> cocktail filled with hunks of fresh fruit, so that after the liquid part of the drink has been consumed, one can also eat the alcohol-infused fruit (e.g. strawberries). The history of smashes goes back at least as far as the 1862 book How to Mix Drinks.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref> The old-style whiskey smash was an example of an early smash.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref>

The herb used in a smash is often mint, although basil is sometimes used in cocktails that go well with it, e.g. many strawberry cocktails. The name "smash" comes from the idea that on a hot day, one takes whatever fruit is on hand and smashes it all together to make a refreshing beverage.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref> Generally a smash will have crushed ice.<ref name="bourbonorange">Template:Cite web</ref>
