Shoo, this should tell you the last time I had a drink at a bar.
I ordered Sex on the Beach and it was weak!
I need a new one!
Thanks!

Mojitos

While I contend that rum is on the rise, I don't think vodka is (or ever will, not for a very long time anyway) go out. It's arguably the most mixable spirit due to its light taste, clear color and endless possibilities. Like everyone has mentioned, pomegranate martinis are hot hot hot. I make them for myself and for get-togethers because my recipe for them is just sooo easy and they're delicious. Slide right down though, so you can drink more than you realize! I think the cosmopolitan is delicious but past its peak. Mojitos are very popular really now too as mentioned. I don't think you can go wrong with the classics though, especially if you're male. Nothing as classy as a gin & tonic, manhattan, or the original gin martini (up with an olive). Cheers!

I agree with the others. I am a bartender and I have noticed a big upsurge in mojitos. If you can get them made right, they are really nice. Look at the proportions when they are pouring them. Some will try to cheat you out of rum by adding a lot of soda water. A proper mojito has only a splash of soda water. If you're not so keen on mint, try adding a fruit puree to it. It takes the edge off of the rum.

Vodka's on it's way out, and with it the Vodka martini. Rum is coming in vogue, particularly top-shelf rums, and Bacardi's ad campaigns are pushing up the popularity of the mojito. So order a mojito or a cuba libre, and channel your inner Jack Sparrow. ;)
For the college crowd, anything mixed with an energy drink is big.

I think you just came across a beautiful idea. There has got to be an opportunity for making millions owning some business that will stop your phone from being able to contact certain numbers between certain hours!!

Martinis are really popular now - most bars will make a unique one such as pomegranet marginis, ginger peach martini, choc tini (with chocolate liquor) etc. Just ask the bartender if they make speciality martinis

Pomegranate margaritas. Anything with pomegranate juice is hot right now.
