8 Two-Ingredient Cocktails To Commit To Memory
While we love a good cocktail recipe here at B+C, sometimes taking the 10+ minutes to shake up a single intricate drink just isn’t on the docket. This is especially true when we need something yummy in our hands quick to get the party started ASAP!
That’s where these two-ingredient cocktails come in so handy. You probably already know ‘em and love ‘em, but this list will be a great resource when your at-home bar is lacking inspiration.
From classic Vodka Crans to Screwdrivers, commit these super-easy cocktails to memory so that your whole crew has something to sip on! All you need is the spirit of choice and a good mixer. Scroll on for our faves!

Jack + Coke
You can customize this drink practically any way you want, but most recipes call for 1.5 oz of Jack Daniel's whiskey to about 4 oz Coca-Cola. That whiskey-to-soda ratio will yield the tastiest Jack + Coke possible!

Tito’s + Sprite
Any bubbly soda pairs well with a basic vodka like Tito's! One of our go-to's is Sprite because its sweetness masks the edge of the vodka perfectly. Start with 1.5 oz Tito's, top with Sprite, and if you're feelin' fancy, garnish things off with a lime wedge or orange slice!

Vodka + Cranberry Juice
Oh, Vodka Cran. You will always be there for us. From the club bar to an at-home shindig, this two-ingredient cocktail is an utter classic. The tart cranberry juice makes the best mixer for something as strong as vodka! Pour yourself a shot (or two) of your favorite vodka then top with the juice and a lime wedge to squeeze in.

Deep Eddy Lemon + Sprite
For a two-ingredient cocktail reminiscent of straight-up lemonade, mix a shot of Deep Eddy Lemon vodka with some ice-cold Sprite. It doesn't taste like alcohol, but it is! Your tasty, boozy new summer drink awaits!

Gin + Tonic
Gin + Tonics are a bar-side staple. Mix about 2 oz gin with 4 oz tonic water over ice, add in a little bit of lime juice, and you're ready to go! To elevate your sip even further, garnish with some fresh mint leaves.

Prosecco + Orange Juice (Mimosa)
Brunch is calling! Of course, you have to answer the call with a classic mimosa. The Prosecco-to-OJ ratio is really up to your preferences on just how boozy you want brunch to be.

Vodka + Orange Juice (Screwdriver)
Anyone could make this easy two-ingredient cocktail, the Screwdriver. It's simply 1.5 oz vodka to 4-6 oz orange juice, and it's so refreshing, especially in the summer.

Tequila + Soda
For a simple cocktail with a strong effect, Tequila Sodas get the job done. Mix 1.5 oz tequila of choice with 4 oz soda water, and you're ready to sip away. If soda water isn't your jam, you could totally use any sort of flavored sparkling water, like La Croix.
