Gimme a martini, or a gimlet, or a vodka tonic any day.

YES, YES, YES. This is the point I was trying to make in my initial post. I like the simplicity and class of those titles.

O-Nut said it best, I think. Go-e-O-e-O!

Sangria is another good one

Rotgut.

Night Train.

Thunderbird.

Sidecar.

Pan-Galactic Gargle Blaster.

I always liked the name Blue Hawaiian. Never had one, but I like the name. These days, I'm a triple-shot Americano with room.

I'm with Tracilicious. A Cosmopolitan says it all.

Belvedere martini, triple olives
Manhattan
Long Island Ice Tea
Madras

I don't like a floating fruit section or umpteen plastic toys & umbrellas in my drink. I don't want to choke on a giraffe, mermaid & an orange wedge whilst sipping. The little toys are darling, but I like my stuff plain.

Trendy, but enjoyable....
Pineapple Upside Down Cake
Rockstar & vodka

Sidecar. Another very evocative name, images of sipping a drink, wearing goggles, leather gloves, and a leather helmet, having stopped at a bar in the middle of a road trip with your buddy riding in his motorcycle's sidecar.
