Corpse Reviver (Gold)

Cocktails with heat-building character from aged spirits, spices, or hot builds. Warming drinks suit cold weather and fireside sipping.

Warming

Cocktails with prominent non-citrus fruit character, such as apple, pear, peach, or cherry. Fruity drinks can range from delicate and floral to bold and jammy.

Fruity

Cocktails with a dense, syrupy, or full-bodied texture, often from sugar, amaro, or aged spirits. Rich drinks feel weighty on the palate.

Rich

Cocktails where no single element dominates — the spirit, acid, and sweetness are in harmony. Classic sours and well-built stirred drinks often land here.
