The Full Story:
When you’re enjoying a cocktail or two with friends, family, and coworkers this holiday season, keep in mind that what you drink can reveal a lot about who you are. According to Patrick Pistolesi, Master Mixologist at NIO Cocktails, your drink order can show whether you’re the life of the party or more of a mysterious observer.
Here’s what he suggests you sip on at your office holiday party based on your personality.
- Mocktails - The Go-Getter. Those who go for booze-free drinks tend to be very responsible and are typically the first ones to leave, according to this expert. Pistolesi recommends they order a Lemongrass Citrus, Ginger Sour, or Gimless.
- Bitter cocktails - The Creative. These kinds of drinks are “particularly popular” with office millennials who are part of the creative team. “Despite the name of the cocktail, you have a warm, sweet side that people naturally gravitate towards,” the mixologist says. He suggests an Espresso Martini, Milano Torino, or Spiced Negroni.
- Sour cocktails - The Fashionably Late One. The office fashionista may not be on time, but she’ll be the best-dressed one there and she’ll be sipping a sour cocktail. Pistolesi recommends they order a Disaronno Sour, Whiskey Sour, or Gin Sour.
- Sweet cocktails - The Life of the Party. Those who like to be in the center of the action and are known to keep the party going will do it with a sweet drink in their hand. This party person should order a Daiquiri, Strawberry Margarita, or Gin Proved.
- Vodka - The Socialite. They enjoy big nights out and sipping on a Vodka Sour, Vodka Martini, or a classic Cosmopolitan.
- Whiskey - The Conversationalist. These types like to talk and get into deep conversations and are known for giving great advice. Whiskey on the rocks, Boulevardier, or an Old Fashioned are recommended.
- Tequila - The Funniest. Tequila drinkers are the loudest and funniest people in the office and they never get embarrassed, according to Pistolesi. He suggests they order a Margarita, Tequila Sunrise, or Tequila Sour.
- Wine - The Sensible One. Our expert says wine drinkers are serious, but like to avoid conflict and find a middle ground, both at work and socially. They love to be surrounded by interesting conversations and should be sipping a Bellini, White Wine Spritzer, or Sangria.
