Probably I just didn't do it right. But regardless of its all-good ingredients, it was bland and sweet for me.
Wouldn't make it again.
1 oz. Bacardi White Rum
1 oz. Beefeater Dry Gin
Orange Juice
Sprite

Jedi
1 oz Blue Curacao
1/3 oz Creme de Cacao
milk
Sounds quite funky.
Looks? Inedible.
Tastes too sweet.
It's not bad as the ingredients sound, but I won't eat it again.

French Dream
1 oz Bailey's
1 oz Kahluah
1 oz Chambord or Creme de Cassis
Of course, I don't have money for Chambord, so used cassis.
Looks from the outside, think of milk + acid.
Better than it looks.

Egg nog
I didn't know that the day I make this kind of the drink in my life.
We had a Christmas cocktail party, in which all the participants should make one cocktails of their own. So, I decided to make one that really sounds like christmas.
Egg nog.
But wait, all the ingredients are telling me that this isn't going to be my favorite drink.
Anyways, for the bunch of foreigners in this country celebrating Christmas,
Eggnog will be a good option.
I, again followed Jefferey's recipe.
2 Large eggs
-> Beat it for a minute in a blender
3 oz granulated sugar
-> Add it to a blender and beat it for an additional minute.
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
2 oz Brandy
2 oz Spiced rum
6 oz Whole milk
4 oz Heavy Cream
Pretty handful.
It wasn't very good for me, but I guess everybody else liked it.
Well paid effort.

Arnaud
1.5 oz Gin
1.5 oz Creme de Cassis
1.5 oz Dry Vermouth
Heard that it's after the name of some French Actress.
Sounds very berry, and yes, it is.
Strong scents of cassis and vermouth almost erases the
unwanted and unique smell of gin.
Pretty pleasant mix.
(though it isn't very much to my taste.)

Sunnier Sour
Right to my taste.
All the ingredients are of my favor. Couldn't go wrong, I guess.
Proportions are a bit quirky, but worth trying it.
4 oz. Club Soda
1 1/2 oz. Grapefruit Juice
1 1/4 oz. Dark Rum
1/2 tsp. Superfine Sugar
1/4 oz. Lemon Juice
