How to remember it

Midori is the bright green melon bottle. Picture a glowing green drink in a martini glass with a red cherry, like a traffic light.

Drink family: Simple Sour · Base + citrus + a plain sweetener (sour mix)

Learn one sour and you know them all: only the base changes.

Same shape on your sheets: Daiquiri, Whiskey Sour, Amaretto Sour, Bacardi Cocktail

Memory tricks are written for this app; only the acronym is printed on the sheet. Drink families are Gary Regan's, from The Joy of Mixology.
