    When I was younger and did shooters:
    1) Buttery nipples
    2) Jello Shot
    3) Kamekaze

    Cocktails:
    1) rum and diet dr pepper
    2) homemade margarita
    3) grand marnier on the rocks

    Now I'm old and too poor/tired to worry with fancy drinks. So mostly I stick to cocktail #1, and maybe during summer cookout season I'll splurge on cocktail #2

    Goombay Smash

    3/4 oz Light Rum
    1/2 oz Captain Morgan
    1/4 oz Apricot Brandy
    3 oz Pineapple Juice
