INTRODUCTION
Making cocktail recipes at home can be pretty simple. While it might seem intimidating, making a great cocktail is 100% accessible and making that signature alcoholic drink add infinitely more fun to any evening!
If you’re craving a well-crafted vodka cocktail, a classic Old-Fashioned or a beautifully bitter Negroni (a la Stanley Tucci!), chances are good that neither hard seltzer nor sangria recipe will get the job done.
Some of these popular mixed drinks require learning how to use a shaker or breaking out the blender - hello, perfect crushed ice! - but it’s fun to practice and will guarantee you eager volunteer tasters. On the other hand, many classic cocktail recipes call for only two or three ingredients and a few don’t even need any special equipment. An easy cocktail stirred together after a long week can go a long way to making you feel just a little more civilized.
Below are the best of our best cocktail recipes: fun, fancy and everywhere in between! Grab some mixers, some fresh citrus, and your favorite spirit and get shakin’!

Shake, shake, and shake some more.
Use small glasses.
Use fresh ingredients.

When mixing cocktails with sparkling ingredients - sparkling wine, club soda or sparkling water - be sure to add them at the last second
