I like the Monsoon from Port o Call. But come a Mardi-Gras day I used to drink something called Alligator Piss that was Jack Daniels, Midori and orange juice.

Theres a shitty mexican place up on the mountain here has cheap lilikoi margaritas. I drank so many the first time, I passed out and pissed myself in my gfs car.

When Im chillin, more into martinis. Greygoose, splash of extra dry noilly, shot of olive juice, three olives, unchilled in a whiskey glass, half full. I hate holding martini glasses.

Also a sucker for bloody mary bars.

i couldn't name a "best" but rusty nails and vodka martinis are staple alternatives when i'm not being / can't be an IPA snob.
rusty nail - 50/50 scotch & drambuie on the rocks. sometimes cherries are tossed in too. delicious & obviously potent. & i'm not a fan of scotch but still love this mix.
vodka martinis i usually do grey goose if they have it or smirnoff if i'm cheap, & i like 'em extra dirty.

There's a bar I don't really like to go to.. because it's always packed with #yolo #swag kids... BUT they have a drink there.. it's called "Adios, Motherfucker!". It's basically 90% fruit schnaps and fruity liquor and 10% very strong (and sour) lemon juice. It straight up blows your fuses.. all of them.

I like Caesars but I make them with rye. And they're way hotter than that wussy shit you get at the bar. Stronger too because I use like twice as much. That and a G&T with Tanqueray are pretty much the only mixed drinks I'll have....

My go to drink is a white russian in bars. If I'm at a restaurant or fancy place, Dirty Martini with Hendricks Gin.

I don't really do mixed drinks but my two favorite were from experimenting with milk based drinks. my roommates and I would take a gallon jug of milk pour some out and ad a Kahlua knockoff and some cheap vodka and then drink it until there was enough space to ad more, so it would go until the dregs were boozy and syrupy and amazing. its hard to beat a big ol jug of white russian that gets stronger as you drink. my other favorite was with spiced rum and chai and milk. really spicy and peppery and great.

I had a Moscow Mule at some bar in Ithaca that was really phenomenal. Fresh mint, ugh.
I also really like a Dark & Stormy made with Kraken.

Ginger beer FTW.

Gin and tonic is my go-to drink these days, they're just so delicious and not sweet unlike 99% of mixed drinks and cocktails.

I vacillate between mint juleps and old fashioned's as my favorite drink. Luckily they're both very easy to make, and I find that I generally prefer the ones I make myself to any that I get from a bar. Manhattan's are good, too. Pretty much anything with bourbon in it will tickle my fancy.

moscow mule, i dig those too but don't have them often. cool new bar in cbus named double happiness featured that drink when they kicked off, had engraved brass mugs to serve them in. bet every last one of those mugs has been stolen.
