Basil meets a potpourri of unconventional fruits to make up this peculiar and exciting cocktail, Basilico. A basil cocktail is fitting for our episode on the 80/20 Rule—it's a strong herb where a little goes a long way. If you're not as big of a basil fan as we are, tone down the leaves and amp up the strawberries or other liqueurs to your liking. Fruits like peach and apple, which we don't often see in mixed drinks, are a welcome surprise any time of the year.

Zero Proof Swizzle may be a mocktail, but don't be fooled: This isn't your grandmother's fruity drink. A mix of fresh juices and tropical falernum mellow out with Fee Brothers walnut and peach bitters. The walnut bitters add a mature, smoky taste that whiskey Manhattan lovers will savor.

Looking for the perfect cider drink to round out your fall? Your quest is over. The Stone Fence is a delightfully simple rum and cider cocktail that delivers complexity without the fuss. While we don't typically consider cider to be a refreshing drink, the mint sprig adds an interesting twist that creates a crisp aftertaste. If our episode has you in the mood for a big change, try swapping out the mint for cloves and drinking this one warm.

Jen isn't a huge fan of amaretto sours. So, we went on a quest to find a recipe she'd love. The winner was this grown-up version by Jeffrey Morgenthaler, bar manager of Pépé Le Moko and Clyde Common in Portland, Oregon. The recipe was featured in the New York Times as one of the best cocktail revamps, and they weren't wrong. Aged bourbon whiskey and frothy egg whites provide a modern twist on a classic drink.

Sometimes it's hard to believe that we are, in fact, in charge. Surely, you jest. But your qualifications are no joke. Our first mocktail recipe, Shirley You Jest, pays homage to overcoming the imposter syndrome. The balanced blend of clementine, cranberry, lime, and Fresca creates a fresh, citrusy drink that's perfect for sipping out of a martini glass. And you can always add some vodka, if it's one of those days.

We usually think of a Bloody Mary as a morning cocktail. But it can also be just the drink you need when everything gets a little messy. Our recipe includes a couple of our favorite Michigan-made boozes and an array of go-to garnishes, including (but not limited to) dilly beans, pearl onions, green olives and sausages.

Cucumbers are wonderful in anything. So why would a cocktail be any different? Cool Hand Cuke is an aromatic blend of muddled cucumber, gin and Pimm's, and citrus flavors. Hendrick's and cucumber are a natural pair, and the notes of citrus make this the ideal end-of-summer drink.

This cocktail is just like sales and prospecting: it's sweet, but it still knows how to get the job done. Though bold, The Charming Foxtale is ideal for slow-sipping while you contemplate your next sales move. It's bold and polished, with a smooth tequila base. And the Aperol brings a few unique flavors into the mix, including bitter and sweet oranges, herbs, and rhubarb.

This drink is a heavy-hitter. The olive brine meshes nicely with the dry vermouth, delivering a strong dose of saltiness and flavor. It's a martini you drink after you've (metaphorically) climbed a mountain and can see how great it is from the top.

Before you say "I'm not a tequila drinker," try Paloma. Refreshing with all the right notes of tequila and lime juice, this drink is an upscale version of the classic margarita. And the Himalayan sea salt around the rim adds a nice, rosy touch.
