Let Your Zodiac Sign Determine The Perfect Cocktail For You
Let your zodiac sign the next drink you order or learn to make at home, and next time anyone asks you “what’s your poison”, you have the best answer.
Your choice of cocktail tells a tale about you. If someone says “martini,” does your mind not go to James Bond. It’s a classic drink; he’s a classy guy. It makes sense.
Refer to your sun sign to inform your next personality appropriate order. So check out this list and see which drink suits you best.
Aries: Spicy Margarita
“Aries are a more impulsive sign, with a lot of energy," astrologer Alice Bell of Stalk tells Cosmopolitan. If Aries isn’t ordering straight shots, a spicy margarita is the next best thing.

Spending money on indulgences is right up your alley, so what else, if not bubbles, for the dear Taurus? “A French 75 is a twist on the classic glass of bubbly.” says Bell

Sagittarius: Tiki Cocktail
"Sagittarians are like a tiki cocktail—there's a build to it, there's history to it, and it can be pretty damn mean to you!" Barriere says.

Because caps work as hard as they do, they may need something with a bit more kick. Not only that, but a dry martini is straightforward and to the point, just like the Capricorn.
Aquarius: Paloma
