Get yourself a decent barman

Answer 2

Obviously, the definition of a "cocktail" varies, but you can probably rely on these rules for "inventing" a great one. 1) A cocktail must contain at least two ingrediants, one of which must be alcoholic. 2) A great cocktail should be relatively simple to make, but a more complicated and interesting taste is often a plus 3) A truly great cocktail must come from common or easily obtained ingrediants. 4) You must come up with a descriptive and appropriate name for your creation. Once made a great way to spread your creation around is to throw a party with this as your drink of choice. Happy Mixing
