Will Rogers

Will Rogers was famous as an on-screen cowboy, one that was great fun to watch. The cocktail that is named after him relies on gin, vermouth, orange juice, and a little curacao.

In one sense, it’s like a gin martini with a few extra ingredients. Still, the idea can be appealing, as martinis are too intense for many drinkers.

Leblon James

This cocktail is a more modern creation – named after Lebron James, who is one of the star players in the NBA. Not surprisingly, the main spirit here is Leblon cachaca. You could use another type of cachaca too or perhaps even a white rum. However, you’ll get the best results by relying on the named spirit.

To make the cocktail, you need two parts of the cachaca, one part of watermelon juice, and one part of orange juice (freshly squeezed). There’s one other ingredient too – a dash of chipotle-infused agave nectar. This may be the hardest ingredient to find, but you could always infuse the agave nectar yourself.
