Your signature sip? Just look to the stars...
ARIES
(MARCH 21-APRIL 19)
ROSÉ
Because you love to be direct and to the point, your classic order is a glass of rosé. The best things are left classic, and you love the simplicity and ease of a tall glass of Summer in a Bottle. Your mantra is “rosé all day.”
TAURUS
(APRIL 20-MAY 20)
SKINNY MARGARITA
You are always in tiptop shape, keeping up with the latest fitness trends. Don’t let a drink destroy your workout grind with a Patron Skinny from Margarita Grille in Westhampton. Light, refreshing and low in calories, this drink has your waistline in mind while having a good time.
GEMINI
(MAY 21-JUNE 20)
MOSCOW MULE
A Moscow mule can never disappoint, especially in its signature copper mug topped with a wedge of lime. A popular drink among bartenders, this cup crosses off flexibility and style. Take a trip to The Palm in East Hampton, and give The Palm Mule a taste.
CANCER
(JUNE 21-JULY 22)
MARTINI
Channel your inner Leonardo DiCaprio in the Great Gatsby with a martini in hand. Whether dirty or regular, this drink screams class and sophistication. Sant Ambroeus in Southampton has a 2:1 Martini that is sure to do the trick!
LEO
(JULY 23-AUG. 22)
BLOODY MARY
Your keen attention to detail is your greatest weapon, which is why a bloody mary should be your drink of choice. This drink bursts with flavors of sweet, salty, sour and umami, all of which take detail to master. The perfect brunch cocktail, enjoy a bloody mary while midday dining at Dockers Waterside in East Quogue.
VIRGO
(AUG. 23-SEPT. 22)
SPIKED SELTZER
Because new is always better, classic cocktails can be replaced with the latest alcohol trend, spiked seltzer. Absolut and Cîroc have both entered the spiked seltzer game, and with names like those, the seltzers are sure to satisfy.
LIBRA
(SEPT. 2-OCT. 22)
OLD-FASHIONED
Your timeless, classy traits only deserve to be complemented by an Old-Fashioned. From Jack Daniel’s to Jim Beam Bourbon, your drink speaks to your preference for elegance. Flora in Westhampton puts a fun twist on this classic, calling its specialty the Well Fashioned.
SCORPIO
(OCT. 23-NOV. 21)
GIN AND TONIC
Simplicity and cleanliness are key, making a gin and tonic right up your alley. You know exactly what is in it and how to make it—add ice to make it nice and refreshing. Tanqueray Gin has followed the “cocktail-in-a-can” fad, and its canned gin and tonic is a must-try this summer!
SAGITTARIUS
(NOV. 22-DEC. 21)
SPICY MARGARITA
Average is boring, and what better way to spice up your night than a spicy margarita? A few jalapenos will give you the kick you deserve—experimenting with this drink will make for the ultimate night out. If you are looking to go even crazier with your cocktail, The Surf Lodge in Montauk puts an interesting spin on the spicy margarita with its Smoky Piña.
CAPRICORN
(DEC. 22-JAN. 19)
VODKA SODA
While waiters and waitresses may marvel at your simplicity, a vodka soda is a safe winner. This drink is predictable and easy, just like you. Head on over to Oakland’s in Hampton Bays to enjoy some spectacular water views with your classic cocktail.
AQUARIUS
(JAN. 20-FEB. 18)
COSMOPOLITAN
While some of the best drinks are left classic, Cosmos are a girl’s best friend. This fairly new drink is an indication of your hip and cool personality. If you want to go even further with your Cosmopolitan, Bounce Beach in Montauk has a fun and fruity Cosmo Royal.
PISCES
(FEB. 19-MARCH 20)
SANGRIA
It is almost as if sangria was made for Pisces—their emotional affect is a classic trait. A pitcher of this sweet sip can also be a reflection of your generosity, with cups and cocktails for the whole table to enjoy. Sangrias may be most enjoyed at home, so take advantage of some downtime. Grab some fruit from your local farmers market, open a bottle of Spanish red wine, mix it all up, and enjoy!
