Different types of alcohol have different personalities — just like people. We're all a mix of unique traits, and all of these cocktails are a perfect mix of character that matches each of the zodiac signs.

The delicate taste of the ginger and lime matches the sensitive and often cheerful Virgo.

Mixed with: tomato juice, vodka, spices, and garnished with celery.
It's a cocktail and a juice - the two sides of this drink are very representative of a Gemini.

Mixed with: white rum, lime juice, and simple syrup.
When I think of Pisces, I think of someone empathetic and sweet - just like a daiquiri.
Scorpio (November 23 - December 17) — Martini

Mixed with: gin, and dry vermouths.
The martini is simple and doesn't pull punches, much like a Scorpio.

A fun, bold drink for a fun, bold Leo.
Taurus (May 13 - June 21) — Piña Colada

Mixed with: white rum, coconut cream, and pineapple juice.
The fruity flavors are a perfect match for the down-to-earth Taurus.
Aquarius (February 16 - March 11) — Mojito

Mixed with: white rum, lime juice, sugar, soda, and mint.
This cocktail has more ingredients than others and feels fresh/original, while maintaining a no-frills air about it - putting me in mind of the Aquarius.
Libra (October 30 - November 23) — Long Island Iced Tea

Mixed with: vodka, tequila, rum, triple sec, gin, and a splash of cola.
This cocktail is almost all alcohol of varying types making it almost universally pleasing, just like the often diplomatic Libra.
Cancer (July 20 - August 10) — Mimosa

Mixed with: champagne and orange juice.
Cancers are most known for their loyalty, and a drink that that is mixed with two reliable drinks seems to be the best fit.
Aries (April 18 - May 13) — Vodka Redbull

Mixed with: vodka and Redbull.
This one doesn't feel like it needs an explantation, but you order this drink when you're wanting to have a good time — and if that isn't what an Aries is all about I don't know what it is.
Sagittarius (December 17 - January 20) — Cosmopolitan

Mixed with: vodka, triple sec, orange juice, and lime juice.
This drink feels very sophisticated and like you need to be in an exclusive bar in NYC to order it, but I can see a Sagittarius sipping it anywhere.
