The Whiskey Cocktail You Are, Based On Your Zodiac Sign
BY CLAIRE REDDEN
Aries
As the first sign of the astrological calendar, Aries are competitive, bold, and ambitious, which unsurprisingly translates to the old fashioned.
Consisting of whiskey, bitters, and sugar, the old fashioned is one of the oldest cocktails in history. Not unlike Aries, it's known for its quality and popularity.
Taurus
If there's one thing that Tauruses are known for, it’s being stubborn and valuing their routine, so they’re likely to go for a simple cocktail like a whiskey and tonic.
A whiskey and tonic is as reliable as cocktails come. The drink can be found in any bar, and switching it up is as simple as swapping in a new whiskey.
Gemini
Geminis may have a reputation as two-faced, but in reality, they are multifaceted and so is their whiskey cocktail — the sweet and sour whiskey sour.
Made of sugar, lemon, whiskey, and egg whites, the whiskey sour encapsulates all the playful, occasionally erratic, sides of Geminis.
Cancer
Cancers are known for being walled off and sensitive, so to bring them out of their shell, their whiskey drink would be a comforting Atholl brose.
This sweet and creamy dessert cocktail is made from Scotch, Drambuie, honey, and oatmeal water, perfect for bringing sensitive Cancers a taste of comfort.
Leo
Leos have big personalities and a natural celebratory streak, so their whiskey cocktail would be the summery, festive Lynchburg lemonade.
Made of Tennessee whiskey and lemon-lime soda, Lynchburg lemonades are the ultimate summer refreshment perfect for enjoying at the pool or beach.
