White Russian

Cocktails with a rich, velvety mouthfeel from cream, coconut cream, eggs, or dairy liqueurs. Creamy drinks feel indulgent and often serve as dessert.

Creamy

Cocktails with espresso, coffee liqueur, or cold brew. Coffee drinks are stimulating, roasty, and often lean bittersweet.

Coffee

Cocktails where sugar, syrup, or sweet liqueurs take the lead. These drinks are often dessert-like or approachable, with richness softening stronger spirits.

Sweet

Sweet, rich cocktails that stand in for dessert — cream-based, chocolate-forward, or built around sugar-forward liqueurs.

Dessert

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