He explains it very simply.There really is only a few different types of cocktails and all the variations are just a twist on a tried and true formula. Technically a "cocktail" is a specific type of drink on it's own(I can't remember the exact ingredients at the moment),then you have Juleps,Sours,Collins,Smashes,etc. I'd like to see the list name the most popular of each style.
