You know your friends (guests) more than anyone out there, so be sure to ask for advice and suggestions. And if you still can't get the right drinks, we have put together a list of best alcoholic drinks for girls and guys. Read through the article and find out how easy it is to make them (and simultaneously, host a rocking party).

Alcoholic Drinks for Girls

When it comes to girls and their choice of alcoholic drinks, the selections tend to surround lighter and fruitier low calorie alcoholic drinks. So if you find yourself confused the next time you wish to unwind with a relaxing drink, the following list might come in handy.

Tokyo Tea
Definitely not a tea, but a fabulous fruity drink. A perfect beverage that tastes amazing and gives you a nice escape from the day. To make the Tokyo Tea, mix in ½ oz of vodka, rum, gin, 1800 Tequila, and Triple Sec with 1 oz Midori melon liqueur.

Grey Goose
Known as one of the smoothest vodka drinks, it has everything a girl needs. You can make the drink by mixing 2 oz Sour Apple Schnapps and 1 oz Grey Goose vodka together, and add either cranberry juice or 7UP. A perfect drink for a perfect "girls' night out".

White Russian
Are you in mood for something sweet? A White Russian will do the trick. To make the drink, mix 2 oz vodka, 1 oz coffee liqueur, and light cream. Just pour the first 2 ingredients in a glass over ice and fill it with light cream. Get a nice buzz with this White Russian.

Woo Woo
Can you picture yourself saying "Woo Woo" to the bartender? A much simpler version to the classic Sex on the Beach, a Woo Woo is perfect for happy hour, poolside party, or just to relax with the girls. To make the drink, mix 1 oz vodka, 0.5 oz Peach Schnapps, and 3.5 oz cranberry juice. Just pour it over ice and start sipping. Yummy!

My Pink Lady
All girls love pink, even in our drinks; especially in our drinks. My Pink Lady is a glamorous drink that will surely tickle your senses. To make this drink, add 0.5 oz Absolut Kurant, 0.25 oz Malibu and Midori, and a dash of Grenadine. Shake the ingredients with ice and strain in a martini glass ¾ full with lemonade.

Alcoholic Drinks for Guys

Many a time, ordering certain drinks at a club or a party can be a bit difficult for guys. Well, it will be so if you're one of those who loves the taste of Sex on the Beach or Apple Martinis; sweet and colorful "girlie" drinks. Although there's nothing wrong with a person's personal choices in drinks, you might want to try some "real" man's drinks this time. Below is the list of alcoholic drinks for men who can handle the hard liquor like a pro.

All-Irish Black and Tan
Now this is definitely a rugged man's drink. To prepare this drink, add Smithwick's Ale in a pint glass along with Guinness Draught (pour it over the back of a spoon). This drink shows strong appeal and a fun-loving, approachable guy.

Black Velvet
Tall, dark, and oh-so-delicious. For a night of portraying dual personalities, a classy champagne-drinking man verses a beer-drinking dude, a Black Velvet is the macho way to go. To make the drink, pour ¾ pint of Guinness and ¼ pint of Champagne together. Now don't think this drink goes levels beyond all regular drinks?

Buffalo Sweat
This drink is made with three parts of bourbon and one part of Tabasco. When you want a "real" kick in your mixers, just add the hotness of the Tabasco sauce and let your head get hot in no time. Oh, and you'll get super drunk as well.

Spicy Sandstorm
The Spicy Sandstorm is a notch below the Buffalo Sweat. To make the drink, you add one ounce of scotch and gin with ground black pepper, and finally a splash of Tabasco sauce. Sip one of these bad boys and you'll have an outrageous night for sure.

A Hole in One
For those who resemble a country-club socialite vibe, A Hole in One is jumping to become your signature drink. To make the drink, mix 1½ oz Johnnie Walker Red Label, 3 oz unsweetened tea, 1 tablespoon honey, and 1 lemon wedge. Stir all in a glass over ice and cruise the party with your swanky drink.
