My go to, is Paul Masson Peach brandy poured over frozen orange slices, cranberries, and limes, followed by cheap Cook's sparkling wine. It's pretty decent out on the patio with jazz playing. Also Roy Buchanan, who defies genre.Get the music right, the quality of the booze follows, no matter how little it cost.
