Recipes
Cocktail recipes, aka mixed drinks, are generally fairly simple sets of text outlining a selection of ingredients along with some basic instructions on how to mix them. Recipes may involve wine or beer, but most commonly are spirits-based, with various mixers, juices, and others ingredients intended to turn a simple spirit into something elevated. Drinkhacker’s recipe section also occasionally includes food products, either intended specifically to pair with a certain cocktail or incorporating a particular liquor into the recipe directly.

A fun trend in the craft cocktail renaissance of the last two decades has been to merge different styles of “classic” cocktails. Sometimes these styles seem pretty incompatible, like the Left Hand cocktail, created by ...
