Champagne Cocktail

The elegant three-ingredient classic Champagne cocktail makes every glass feel like a special occasion.

Piña Colada

With its winning combination of coconut, pineapple, and rum, this piña colada recipe is creamy, just sweet enough, and utterly refreshing.

Chipotle Sangrita

Cans of chipotle peppers in adobo sauce are available in the Mexican food section of most grocery stores. You'll need to puree some for this recipe.

Blue Hawaiian

One of the few vodka-based tiki drinks.
