- Bourbon Sour
Whether it’s whiskey, scotch or bourbon, this amber-hued liquor family attracts plenty of bad boys. Johnny Depp lists this as his favourite drink, even though his bad boy image is mostly a fond memory of middle aged women (and men) these days.
- Sappro beer
Like many westerners, Simon Cowell has an abundance of food sensitivities, and claims Sappro beer (which is yeast-free) is one of the few he can enjoy. That’s good news for anyone in a similar situation who doesn’t want to reach for the hard stuff when their leanings are strictly beer-based.
- Jack on the Rocks
How does he afford that rock ‘n’ roll lifestyle? According to Sting, even though he’s light years away from his young, carefree rocker days, one staple lingers: Jack on the rocks. It remains one of the most badass drinks today.
4. Absinthe
Both Oscar Wilde and Pablo Picasso listed absinthe as their absolute favourite drink. Still illegal (or at least tough to get) in many parts of the US, it’s best served with a cube of sugar. The green glowing alcohol is known as a very mild hallucinogen.
- Margarita
She might not strike you as the “what stays in Mexico” type, but Jennifer Aniston has happily declared that’s her favorite cocktail. A little sweet, a little sour and with plenty of kick.
- Armand de Brignac Champagne
Jay-Z clearly has flawless taste, so it’s no surprise that he’s listed this as his favourite way to imbibe. As for Bey, she’s also gone on record saying she adores the drink–but like Aniston also has a penchant for margaritas.
- Gin and Tonic
Contrary to popular belief, “Butterbeer” isn’t JK Rowling’s signature drink. She prefers her cocktails traditional, sticking with a G+T when the pub calls.
- White Russian
Kim Kardashian says she rarely drinks much, but when she is craving a cocktail she’s known to enjoy a White Russian. Unlike her party-centric sister Khloe, most of Kim’s public outings don’t involve much alcohol these days.
- Strawberry Daiquiri
Steven Tyler’s daughter Liv prefers a strawberry daiquiri when the mood strikes. The heart wants what the heart wants, as do the taste buds.
- Lemon Drop Martini (or sometimes pomegranate)
Bartenders have made all kinds of changes to cocktails over the years. Oprah is a fan of martinis that are a little sweeter, citing lemon drops or pomegranate martinis as her most palatable options.
