mixed drink
Bartender's stirred creation
A mixed drink is an alcoholic beverage combining liquor with other ingredients—mixers, juices, sodas, or additional spirits.
The term distinguishes these preparations from straight pours: She ordered a mixed drink instead of whiskey neat.
Cocktails are mixed drinks, though the terms aren't quite synonymous—a rum and Coke is a mixed drink but barely a cocktail.
