Forget horoscopes and palm readings.The most tried and true way to know your innermost self is what you order at the bar. These drinks represent us on every level.

Mojito: white rum. fresh mint. leaves. simple syrup. fresh lime juice. club soda.
“The mojito. A go-to drink for a good time. Bartenders hate to see me coming.”
Amanda Mohamed
Happening Editor
Espresso Martini: vodka. coffee liqueur. freshly brewed espresso or cold brew concentrate. simple syrup.
“The fact that someone was smart enough to create an espresso martini — a drink that gets you both drunk and caffeinated is why I know I was born in the right generation.”
Julia Campbell
Assistant Photo Director
Bay Breeze: vodka. cranberry juice. pineapple juice.
“I chose the bay breeze because it’s fun, adventurous and sweet. I feel like it gives off an easygoing vibe, and I think it’s perfect for the warm weather, which I love.”
Liz Agurto
PR & Social Media Co-Director
Old-Fashioned: whiskey. sugar. angostura bitters. orange twist.
“Like an old fashioned, I’m classic at heart, sophisticated, timeless and bold with flavor. I might not be everyone’s cup of tea, but I’m always the choice for those with taste.”
