Beverages -- From Soft Drinks to Cocktails

Recipe: "Dr. Robert" Champagne Cocktail
This delicious twist on the classic champagne cocktail gets a touch of sweetness from grenadine.

Recipe: Velvet Daiquiri
This unusual cocktail gets spicy clove notes from the falernum, balanced by tart lime juice.

Recipe: Ballet
This combination of gin, Lillet, orange juice and basil makes a delightful brunch drink for two. While the blood orange juice is delicious and turns the drink a beautiful color, regular orange juice is fine.

Recipe: Lime Cordial
This sweet lime cordial is similar to Rose's Lime Juice but better. It's great in gimlets or mixed with club soda for a refreshing soft drink.

Recipe: Traditional Martini
This traditional martini recipe uses much more vermouth than contemporary recipes, plus a dash of orange bitters.

Recipe: Gimlet Cocktail
Homemade lime cordial elevates this classic gin cocktail to even greater heights.

Recipe: Snappy Caesar
Similar to a Bloody Mary, this drink uses gin instead of vodka and Clamato instead of tomato juice.

Recipe: Margarita
This refreshing variation on the Margarita adds a hint of tangerine juice to highlight the orange undertones from the triple sec.

Recipe: Clover Club Cocktail
This delicious cocktail for two uses fresh or frozen raspberries for a beautiful color and intriguing flavor.

Grand Mimosa: The Ultimate Brunch Drink
The Grand Mimosa, a combination of champagne, orange juice, and orange liqueur is the ultimate brunch libation.
