Highballs are essentially the same, they all contain booze and mix, they may be served in a highball glass or a collins glass, they may or may not have a garnish and they may or may not have a liqueur added. A list of highballs included Cuba Libras (rum, cola, lime wedge garnish), Gin and Tonics (gin, tonic, lime wedge garnish), Gin Rickeys (gin, lime juice, club soda, lime wedge garnish), Mint Juleps (bourbon, green creme de menthe or fresh mint muddled, water), Presbyterian (whiskey, gingerale), Salty Dogs (gin, grapefruit juice, lime wedge garnish), Screwdrivers (vokda, orange juice orange and cherry garnish), Sledgehammers (vokda, lime drink, lime wedge garnish), Slow Comfortable Screws (sloe gin, sweet southern liqueur, orange juice, orange and charry garnish), Slow Screws (sloe gin, orange juice, orange and cherry garnish), Smoothies (scotch, milk, lemon twist), Spritzers (wine, club soda, lemon twist), Tequila Sunrises (tequila, orange juice, cherry juice, orange and cherry garnish), Vodka and Tonics (vodka, tonic, lime wedge garnish), Wine Coolers (wine, lemon-lime soda), and many others too numerous to mention.
Ice Picks are iced teas with vodka added.
Marqueritas are all similar, and have the same ingredients, except for the addition or substitution of fruit, liqueur and/or garnish. Strawberry Marqueritas have strawberries added, Blue Marqueritas are made with blue curacao instead of triple sec, etc. Sidecars are essentially Marueritas, except they are made with brandy instead of tequila.
Spritzers and Wine Coolers are both made with wine and mix. Spritzers are made with rhine wine, club soda and a lemon twist garnish, and Wine Coolers are made with white wine, lemon-lime soda and served in a collins glass.
Sangrias and White Sangrias are essentially the same, except Sangrias are made wit red wine, and White Sangrias are made with white wine.
