Absolut
Just about anything - decent vodka is very easy to mix into tons of drinks I just wouldn't waste good vodka on a mixer...

Screwdrivers

Electric Lemonade

Vodka martinis

Sea Breeze

Sex on the Beach

on the rocks

chilled and neat

the list goes on and on....

Flavored vodkas work well in some drinks - Stoli Vanil is very good in Coke

Tanqueray

Tanqueray and tonic

Gin Martinis

Tom Collins

plenty of other stuff, but I don't know off the top of my head - I can't stand the taste of gin - kinda like drinking paint thinner.

Jim Beam

Beam and Coke

Mint Julep - works better with bourbon rather than straight whisky on the rocks

Cutty Sark

Scotch and club soda

on the rocks

straight

Seagrams VO

Boilermakers :-)

Whisky sours (can also be made with bourbon whisky for a different taste)

Whisky is often served with a sidecar rather than mixed in something else. It can be mixed with a variety of soft drinks like Coke and 7-Up.

Cuervo

Margaritas

Bacardi

Rum and Coke

Rum Runners

Pina Colada

Many fruity drinks are made with rum - it's lighter flavor makes it easier to mix.

Vermouth

Martinis

Manhattan

Dry vermouth is rarely consumed straight. Red vermouth is sometimes drank as an aperitif.

Triple Sec - Normally used as a flavoring in other drinks

Sex on the Beach

Long Island Iced Tea

Cosmopolitan

Sangria

Kahlua

Mudslide

White/Black Russian

B-52

Amaretto

Amaretto Sours

The Godfather

The rest are stand-alone drinks. Wines are sometimes blended, but I don't think blending a Sauvignon Blanc with a Cab would be such a good idea, but I could be wrong... :)

I suppose the mixers are part of the deal. (The 2 alcohol lists were only only alcohol) That's good. I was wondering if anyone was actually going to be able to get mixed drinks.

How do you feel about a white tux.?

I'm pretty neutral a white tux, other than whatever I'm wearing should match what Sloan is wearing. If I had a choice, I'd prefer black.

The reason we're thinking white is because it's going to be July....really warm. If we do white, you will both be wearing white. We are undecided about the vests and bowties, though. They will probably not be the same.
