History: [mostly from Wiki :-)] 

Daiquiri is a family of cocktails whose main ingredients are rum, lime juice, and sugar or other sweetener. The name Daiquiri is also the name of a beach near Santiago, Cuba, and an iron mine in that area. The daiquiri was supposedly invented by an American mining engineer, named Jennings Cox, who happened to be in Cuba at the time of the Spanish-American War. Daiquiri was one of the favorite drinks of writer Ernest Hemingway and American president John F. Kennedy. The drink became popular in the 1940s.

Mint Julep

1/2oz         Simple syrup (if you like it sweet)
1                mint twig for garnish

Glass type: Julep Cup / Rocks glass.

My Rating: 3/5

Method:

1. Pour the mojito syrup into the Glass.

2. Add simple syrup and mix. 
(do this ONLY if you like it sweet, Mojito mix itself is pretty sweet)

4. Pour the whiskey over ice and stir lightly.

5. Garnish with the mint twig.
6. Serve with a small straw.

Tip: Keep the mint twig in your palm and slap it 1-2 times this will release the aroma. The aroma will add to the over all experience.

Peach Cosmo AKA "Woo Woo"

2oz         Vodka

2oz         Cranberry Juice

1/2oz      Monin Peach Syrup

1            Lime 

              Ice cubes

Glass type: Martini/Cocktail

My Rating: 3/5

Method:

1. Chill the Martini glass by putting some ice in it.

2. Add all ingredients to a cocktail shaker and 4-5 ice cubes, shake vigorously. Stop when the shaker is ice cold, over doing it will dilute the drink.
3. Remove the ice from the Martini glass and strain the content of the shaker into the glass.
4. Garnish with a slice of orange or lime.

Note: The classic peach cosmo does not have lime, added it for a slight sour flavor
