A classic martini is made with gin and dry vermouth, typically garnished with an olive or a lemon twist. The ratio varies by preference, from a "wet" martini (more vermouth) to a "dry" martini (less vermouth). A vodka martini substitutes vodka for gin.

The Margarita is consistently ranked as the most popular cocktail in the world, particularly in the United States. Other top contenders include the Old Fashioned, Negroni, Daiquiri, and Espresso Martini, which has seen a massive surge in popularity in recent years.
