You say goodbye, we say hello, and also, Adios Motherf*cker! <p>OK, we don&#8217;t say it, we drink it. This badass AMF cocktail contains vodka, rum, gin, tequila, and <a target="_blank" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cura%C3%A7ao_(liqueur)">Blue Curaçao</a>, making this the kind of drink that&#8217;s pretty much guaranteed to make you loco in la cabeza in the best way possible.  If you haven&#8217;t heard of it before, the Adios Motherfucker, which also goes by Adios Mother Fucker, Blue Motherfucker, Blue Long Island Iced Tea, Blue Motorcycle, the AMF cocktail, the AMF drink, or just the AMF, is quite the legendary drink. It&#8217;s a very potent cocktail, it&#8217;s electric blue in appearance, and it&#8217;s often recommended as <a target="_blank" href="https://www.pinterest.com/tipsybartender/21st-birthday-cocktail-recipes/">the go-to 21st birthday cocktail recipe.</a>  <a target="_blank" href="https://bevvy.co/cocktail/adios-motherfucker/zms">Bevvy notes</a> that the Adios Motherfucker name was established in the late 20th century, when shocking cocktail names were popular.  Although the Adios Motherfucker is definitely a potent drink, it actually tastes pretty good thanks to its use of <a target="_blank" href="https://tipsybartender.com/recipe/diy-sweet-sour/">sweet and sour mix</a>, lemon lime soda, and blue curacao.

demerera sugar 400 grams

table salt 300

black pepper 1 tsp

One surefire way to increase your fruit consumption is by adding some fruit to your cocktails. Case in point: the Flash, a refreshing, vitamin-packed drink from San Francisco's The Treasury that merges Aviation Gin with fresh kiwi, cucumber, and lemon. Order one of these on site, and feel good about your decision. Or try making the Flash at home. Composed of just five readily-available ingredients, it's an easy DIY project with a built-in reward.

Flash

.5 oz Aviation Gin

0.75 oz simple syrup

kiwi

cucumber

In a shaker, muddle kiwi and cucumber with lemon juice. 

Add gin, simple syrup, and ice. Shake well to combine and chill.

Fine-strain into a coupe, and garnish with a thin slice of kiwi.

Don't let the color fool you. With its gentle pink hue, the Jasmine may look as prissy and cute as a Hello Kitty armband, and its unassuming appearance and sprightly color has no doubt appealed to many drinkers of the once-ubiquitous Cosmo. But unlike that candy-colored alcopop, the Jasmine is all business, its alluring tint supplied not by the Cosmopolitan's innocuous red cranberry juice but by the intensely garnet Campari, an Italian aperitif famous for its powerful bitter flavor.

The Jasmine Recipe

Campari

Cointreau

Pour ingredients into a cocktail shaker, fill with ice and shake well for 10 seconds. Strain into a chilled cocktail glass; garnish with a lemon twist.

Cucumber and sage play off gin’s botanical notes in this cocktail recipe; egg whites make this creamy and light. Dangerously refreshing.

So Fresh and So Green Cocktail

sage leaves

simple syrup

St-Germain (elderflower liqueur)

Aromatic bitters (such as Angostura)

Cucumber and sage play off gin’s botanical notes; egg whites make this creamy and light. Dangerously refreshing.

Bon Appétit

Muddle sage leaves, sugar, and 4 cucumber slices in a cocktail shaker. Add egg white, gin, lemon juice, simple syrup, St-Germain, and a dash of bitters. Cover and shake vigorously until egg white is very frothy, about 1 minute.

Fill shaker with ice and shake vigorously until outside is frosty, about 1 minute. Pour into a coupe glass and garnish with remaining cucumber slice.

This riff on a Negroni should be served very cold; stir until you can barely stand to hold onto the shaker anymore.

Mae Rose Cocktail

London dry gin,

dry vermouth,

grapefruit liquer (such as Combier Créme de Pamplemousse Rose)

Grapefruit twist,

Combine gin, vermouth, Campari, and grapefruit liqueur in a cocktail shaker and fill with ice. Stir until shaker is frosty, about 30 seconds. Strain into a coupe glass and garnish with a grapefruit twist.

Herbal, bracing, and worthy of its classic cocktail status.

This classic (stirred!) martini recipe might only need three ingredients—gin, vermouth, and a lemon twist—but to really master it, technique is everything.

Classic Martini Recipe

Beefeater gin

Noilly Prat dry vermouth

Even if you’re thinking to yourself, but I already know how to make a martini, you may want to keep reading anyway. This martini recipe is proof that sometimes the simplest things are actually the hardest to master. It might only need three ingredients—gin, vermouth, and a lemon twist—but fewer variables means that each one is very important to the final result. Technique is everything here.
Speaking of, we suggest stirring this martini 50 times in a rapid circular motion (preferably with a bar spoon) before straining it into your cup. Sounds specific, but we’re aiming for three things here: cohesion of ingredients; proper dilution; and a perfectly chilly temperature—all of which lead to a better, more nuanced flavor profile overall and consistency between batches. Why not shake it? Because we’re only mixing spirit-based ingredients (gin and vermouth), you don’t “need” the force of the shake to integrate them the way you would if other non-booze-based elements (such as citrus, egg white, etc.) were present, and it gives you more control over the temperature and dilution. But if it’s still your preference, by all means, shake away! Oh, and if olives are more your speed, try this recipe instead.
Editor’s note: This recipe was originally published March 24, 2015.

Holding a large (preferably 1") cube of ice in the palm of your hand, use the back of a stirring spoon to crack it into large pieces; place in a mixing glass. Repeat with enough ice to fill glass. Add gin and vermouth and, using a bar spoon, rapidly stir 50 times in a circular motion (the outside of the shaker will become very cold and frosty).

Strain martini through a Hawthorne strainer (or a large slotted spoon) into a chilled Nick and Nora glass. Strain any excess cocktail into a sidecar set over ice (or a small glass in a bowl of ice).

Using a small serrated knife, remove a 1" piece of peel from lemon; it should be stiff enough to provide some resistance (some white pith is okay). Twist peel over drink to express oils, then rub around rim of glass. Float peel, yellow side up, in martini.

A good gin contains floral elements in its mix of botanical flavors, and the creme de violette nicely calls the floral notes to the fore.

Atty Cocktail Recipe

gin (see note)

dry vermouth

absinthe (see note)

crème de violette (see note)

Pour gin, vermouth, absinthe, and crème de violette into an ice-filled. Stir until well chilled, about 20 seconds. Strain into chilled cocktail glass, add lemon twist, and serve immediately. 

Celery juice—all the rage! But still kind of a hard sell. With apple, parsley, apple cider vinegar, and a dusting of black pepper, things start to get interesting. Better yet: It also tastes good with gin.
