If you’re anything like us, you like to spend your weekends chilling with friends, eating good food, and sipping on some fine wine or cocktails (of course). The older we get, the more we find ourselves wanting to become cocktail connoisseurs—which is why we’ve taken it upon ourselves to learn the best of the best cocktail recipes from, well, the connoisseurs themselves.
