“Classic Cocktails Every Drinker Should Know”

One of the online drinking sites — Liquor.com — published recently its view of the top 24 cocktails which all drinkers should know (which is about as objective as deciding the top 24 songs of all time). Though I disagree with many of its drink choices and some of its omissions, I can say that 17 of 24 have already been posted on Keet’s Cocktails. For those interested, their list and my Keet’s Cocktails links are below:
