A Guide to Mixing Drinks

So by now you've probably tried a variety of alcoholic beverages, and marvelled at their diversity. Possibly you may have aimed to try each and every drink imaginable (though this seems both foolhardy and expensive). Well what if you have tried them all? What challenge next? Well, possibly you could try mixing the drinks and seeing what happens. This is the life of the cocktail - the clink of the ice, the splash of the vodka, the choking gag of the drinker. Pity the poor unfortunates who have worked to bring you these more palatable cocktails. They have suffered for their art.

This piece goes out with especial thanks to the United Kingdom Bartenders' Guild.
