great thread. two comments:

one, it really shows how much cocktail culture faded away last century since there have been no top drinks invented in almost 75 years;

two, this is kind of left field, but the bloody mary should get a spot. everyone knows it, everywhere makes one, and a good one is a beautiful thing indeed. besides, it was this drink along with the variation on the martini that introduced vodka to the US. I know many consider that a bad thing, but it is a big thing.
