Taurus: Sweet and savory is what this sign looks for in a drink. Something they can sip on and just chill out and get a nice buzz going on is what this sign is all about. They like creativity too, cool looking garnishes or specialty customized looks are what draws them in initially and then it’s game on.

Virgo: Virgos are hard workers and enjoy their downtime to the fullest. While they usually are content with just thawing on their most comfortable clothes after a long day and kicking their feet up in front of the TV or enjoying a good book with a cold (light) beer, they do like the occasional cocktail. They have particular taste when it comes to cocktails and tend to go for drinks mixed with light rums, gins, and bitters. Virgos are also pretty healthy people so this is why they stick to the lighter liquors and like drinks with fruits or natural juices.
Alcoholic- THE ABBEY COCKTAIL
Ingredients:
1 1/2 oz Gin
1 1/2 oz Lillet Blanc
1 oz Orange Juice of Choice
2 Dashes of Oranges Bitters
For Garnish: Cherries and Orange Twist
Directions:
Take a shaker with ice, gin, Lillet, orange juice, and bitters, shake well and strain into a chilled glass of your choosing. Add your cherries and orange twist garnishes.
Virgo: Non-Alcoholic- ROSEMARY-INFUSED CUCUMBER LEMONADE
Ingredients:
about 3 Large Cucumbers
3 Tablespoons of Agave Syrup
1 Tablespoon of Chopped, Fresh Rosemary (and 4 additional sprigs to add for garnish)
1 Cup of Water
1/2 Cup of Lemon Juice
Directions:
First, cut a dozen thin slices of cucumber to use as garnish. Take the rest of the cucumbers and peel and chop them and place them into a food processor. Add the rosemary and then puree. Grab a fine mesh strainer (if you do not have one make do with what you have) set it over a medium sized bowl and then extract all the juices from the solids you have through the strainer into the bowl. After you’ve done the hard part, add your water, lemon juice, and agave syrup to your extracted cucumber juice and stir it together. When it’s all dissolved, pour into glasses filled with ice and garnish them with the sliced cucumber slices you put aside and the extra sprigs of rosemary. This is not only super healthy and detoxifies the body but it is super hydrating so it might seem like a lot of work but it really only takes about 15-20 minutes but it is SO worth it!
Capricorn: Capricorns enjoy the classics. Drinks like Manhattans give them the feel of the sophistication with the twist of sweetness they can enjoy for a night on the town. During the hot summer months they enjoy the classic lemonades and punches. We took the best of both worlds and literally mixed them together.
