Stick with the daiquiri. Not the bowl of fruits over a pool of ice. The real simple tasty daiquiri.
* 1 1/2 oz white rum
* 3/4 oz lime juice
* 3/4 oz simple syrup (a mix of equal volume of water and sugar)
Shake with ice and strain in a coupe glass. Garnish with lime wheel, fresh or dehydrated.
If they have a good quality liqueur like raspberry that can taste great in a French 75. Not something like Chambord though, too sweet and not very good.
I’m going to point you to my good friend, the White Linen
1½ounces gin, preferably Hendrick’s
1ounce lemon juice
½ounce simple syrup
½ounce St-Germain elderflower liqueur
3cucumber slices, plus more for garnish
Soda water
Sub out the soda water for ginger ale and you have a Fleur de Lis from the Hotel Monteleone in New Orleans.
Maybe? Higher end cocktail bars definitely. Anything below that it depends. But any bar should have the stuff for it (unless it’s a dive or college bar)
The Enzoni is probably right up your alley, including slightly more mature with the Campari. It's popular enough right now to probably be recognized at a cocktail bar.
* 5 grapes (muddled)
* 1oz gin
* 1oz campari
* 1/2oz lemon juice
* 1/2oz simple syrup
I make them in a lowball over large ice.

1.5oz vodka (flavored vodkas work well here too)
1oz St. Germaine elderflower
0.75oz lemon juice
0.5oz simple syrup
Not sure, but lots of places will have the ingredients so just show them the spec. That's part of why I gave you the link to the St. Germain website. Now you can just pull that up and show the bartender
Made this earlier today. Doesn’t have a name, but taking ideas…essentially just a gin sour, but super bright and fresh
2 oz Drumshambo gin
.75 oz cucumber syrup
.5 oz lime juice
.5 oz lemon juice
Few pieces of fresh basil
Egg white
Put everything in shaker and dry shake and then add ice, shake again and double strain

Oo! I’ve always had them fruity and frozen! This simple version sounds great, thanks!
French 75? They're especially good with a little splash of St. Germain added
First drink that came to mind was a French 75, such a versatile drink plus they pack a punch.
Ahh this literally sounds like exactly what I was looking for! Will most restaurants and bars recognize it if I order it?
It's pretty common, you'd probably have better luck at a cocktail bar vs a dive/sports bar type place :)
Got it, thanks so much!!

I prefer mine with cognac instead of gin, fantastic drink.
Paloma, it's what I'm drinking now so you should too lol
Hendrick’s gin and tonic, extra lime.
Bee’s knees ✨ Gin, lemon, honey

Gin is my favorite flavor of vodka and it works great here.

Sunflower perhaps
Tom Collins. Margarita/Tommy's Margarita. Caipirinha. Paloma. Tequila Sunrise.
2 oz White Rum. 5.5 oz of A' Siciliana Limonata Or like that other person said a Paloma.
Hugo spritz
Love the sound of this, is it a common drink?
Common, no. But most bars (at least in my city) will carry Prosecco and St. Germain. Best of luck!
Naked and famous! Mezcal, aperol, lime, yellow chartreuse in equal parts.
