Astrology and alcohol ... who would have thought that these two would make such a great pair?
If you're into astrology, you're pretty familiar with how your respective zodiac sign can affect various factors of your life. It can help dictate your personality, your relationships, and your goals and ambitions. And now, it can even help determine what your favorite cocktail is!
We found the perfect pairings (even better than a pisces and a taurus!) for each element and their respective drinks. Break out your straws and see what the stars have to say about your preferred alcohol choice.
Earth Signs
Capricorn, Taurus, and Virgo
Earth signs are definitely more on the grounded side. They like to remain calm, cool, and collected in all situations, and that doesn't switch up even if there's a party going on! These are the more stable signs, and although they'll enjoy a nice beverage, it won't be a drink that loosens them all the way up.
A classic cocktail to pair with these signs is a drink mixed with gin. Classic and smooth, gin offers a natural earthy flavor that is grounding and soothing. To have the best gin drink, pair this alcohol with tonic water and a citrus touch, such as a lemon peel or citrus peel. The best gin cocktails are also often created when combined with Vermouth, an old but classic type of gin!
Air Signs
Libra, Aquarius, and Gemini
Air signs like to go with the flow (literally). Any way the wind blows doesn't really matter to them, but that doesn't necessarily apply to their preferred drink choice. True to their element, the perfect drink for an air sign is definitely something that's lightweight and lovely.
Tea drinkers will enjoy this pairing: hot tea and alcohol! Teas are known to be small but mighty, and they hardly ever overwhelm you with their minimalistic flavors and floral notes. Boozing up a classic tea (such as green tea, lavender, rosemary, or eucalyptus) with rum or vodka is a great twist to implement. Plus, you can add fresh herbs or honey to your drink for a little bit of freshness and sweetness.
Fire Signs
Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius
Fire signs definitely bring the heat. Always the life of the party, these signs don't even need an extra kick of alcohol to turn things up. Nonetheless, that doesn't mean they don't enjoy a great drink or two.
We're not pulling out a big cocktail list for this pairing. Instead, we're encouraging you to dig into your creativity and have fun mixing and matching your own drink! There's a variety of cocktails to indulge in that speaks perfectly to a fire sign. Here are a few easy pairings that you can start out with:
Blueberry lemonade + whiskey (topped with blackberries)
Jalapeno-infused tequila + strawberry margarita mixer
Peach martini (topped with olives)
These are a few easy pairings that are sure to light your taste buds on fire, but don't be afraid to put on your mixologist hat and see what else you can come up with.
Water Signs
Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces
It's only fair that water signs have the best of the best drinks! Water signs, known to be super sensitive and emotional, tend to feel the impacts of their alcoholic beverages more than the rest of the signs. Nonetheless, they'll still throw a few back in the name of a good time. Drink now, cry later.
As simple as water is, it's best to keep this pairing simple and sweet. For water signs, you just need a classic cocktail. Vodka and cranberry may sound a little boring, but it's reliable. Whiskey and coke is pretty standard, but it gets the job done. Don't complicate these drinks: Stick with what you know and roll with it.
