NTR: Share your simple cocktail recipe

Girls' weekend is coming up & I'm trying to find a simple cocktail recipe that I can make in advance. Thanks!

Re: NTR: Share your simple cocktail recipe
Advance = something I can mix up in a pitcher & have on hand instead of mixing drinks one by one. Not really wanting to do a store bought pre-mix. I'm certain someone is already bringing stuff for mimosas.
No advance needed, just get the cocktail staples and let the girls mix.
Cranberry Juice
Orange Juice
Vodka
Coke
Whiskey or Crown
Rum
I'd love to but it is now blocked at work & we dont' have internet at home (crazy talk, I know).
Thanks for the basics you posted above. I'm not the most knowledgeable when it comes to booze.

This one is strong, but yummy.
Box of wine (white zin)
vodka
cran juice
seltzer or ginger ale
lime wedges
add chopped fruit if you have time...
warning STRONG!
We always make "Beam Me Up Scotty" when I have a summery party.
1 frozen limade mix (cheap stuff works fine)
vodka (I like lemon or lime) fill the empty limade container 3 times- or just dump in the entire bottle if you are hanging out at my house
6 pk bud light lime
2 lt bottle Sprite.
Mix it all together and serve cold. This can be made the morning of your event too. It tastes lemon-lime and can quickly make you feel like you were just beamed somewhere- thus the name.
Take an empty glass, chill in fridge. Take a jigger for measuring drink. Pour shot of Jack in jigger. Drink to make sure its a full oz or 2 oz. Pour another shot in jigger, then pour directly into glass. Do not taint Jack by adding ice or soda.
Or try this Amaretto Sunrise
Amaretto Sunrise recipe
Scale ingredients to servings

I am a big desperate housewives fan...and when it first came out I was working at a bar and made a drink that I put on special every Sunday night when it was on...it was the Despratini. Its super simple!
Cranberry Juice
Apple Vodka
You can mix them up and put in a carafe and chill.
I dip the rims of the glasses in lime juice and then sugar the rim. I slice an apple very thin and put it on the side of the glass. When everyone is ready for a drink, pour a drink and enjoy! Great presentation and taste.
Even DH likes it (on the rocks, of course!)
1 bottle of something sparkly (champagne, sparkling white, whatever)
1/3 cup Grand Marnier
1 cup of cranberry juice.
YUM!
Or,
1 bottle of something sparkly (champagne, sparkling white, whatever)
1/3 cup peach schnapps
1 cup white grape juice

Mojitos:
1 liter rum
2 liters club soda
2 cans of frozen limeade
peppermint leaves
Muddle peppermint leaves and mix all ingredients in a pitcher. If you want flavored, then purchase a flavored rum and frozen fruit (I like raspberry).
One of my favs.
Peach Schnapps
Vodka (any type will do but I love either stoli O or grey goose orange)
Cranberry Juice.
I mix in pretty much equal parts, but you can just mix to taste.
My sangria rocks! Soak fresh fruit, a little sugar, a little orange juice all in Captain Morgans overnight in bottom third of big glass pitcher. I like to use strawberries, peaches, apples, pineapple, but you can use any fruit and to make it even easier but a premade fruit salad. The next morning I add a big bottle of Yellowtail Shiraz (I am a wine snob, but this is perfect for sangria and cheap). Refrigerate. Top pitcher off with ginger ale right before serving.
I also like to make sort of a twist of the pina colada that is a lot less fattening. Fill glass with ice- equal parts of bacardi and malibu to fill 1/3 of glass, 1/3 glass of pineapple juice, 1/3 glass of seltzer/club. Its like a sparkling pina colada. Also great to add some fresh mint to the glass.
