What are simple drinks to order at the bar?

There are a variety of simple drinks you can order at the bar with vodka, many with only two ingredients. These drinks are not only easy to make at home, but also just about any bartender will instantly know what you want and can whip them up in no time. Of course there’s the classic vodka soda, or even Vodka Lime and Soda, for a drink that lets the nuanced taste of GREY GOOSE® Vodka really shine through. A vodka tonic is similar to the vodka soda, but it uses tonic water instead of soda water, which makes it slightly more bitter and complex. You can also ask for a Vodka Cranberry for a fruitier drink.

Two additional drinks are more difficult to make, but they’re such classics that any bartender ought to be able to easily craft them: the Moscow Mule and the Bloody Mary, the classic brunch drink.

And of course you can always order a Classic Dry Vodka Martini Cocktail. While martini cocktails technically only require two ingredients, there are many ways to customize your serve. We’ve broken it all down for you in one editorial: see how to order a martini cocktail at a bar.
