Tailspin: ¾ oz (20 mL) sweet vermouth, ¾ oz (20 mL) gin, ¾ oz (20 mL) green Chartreuse, 1 dash orange bitters, 1 twist lemon peel, 1 cherry.

Tamagozake: Pour 1 cup (250 mL) of sake and a beaten egg into a small saucepan.; Heat the mixture over a low flame, stirring continuously. Remove from heat before it comes to the boil. Mix in one to two teaspoons (5-10 mL) of sugar. It should appear a little thick and creamy.

Teknekt (or Teknert): Mix a half cup (125 mL) of tea with a half cup (125 mL) of moonshine and adding sugar. Sometimes the moonshine is replaced with rum.

Tequila Manhattan: 1.5 oz (45 mL) gold tequila, several dashes sweet vermouth, 1 slice of lime.; Mix the tequila and vermouth with cracked ice in a shaker or blender and strain into a chilled cocktail glass. Garnish with the lime slice. Dry vermouth can be used as a substitute for the sweet variety, depending on taste, or a combination of sweet/dry vermouth can be used.

Tequini Martini: 1½ oz (45 mL) tequila, ½ oz (15 mL) dry vermouth, 1 dash Bitters, 1 twist of lemon peel, 1 olive.; Stir tequila, vermouth and bitters with ice and strain into a cocktail glass. Add the twist of lemon peel, top with the olive, and serve.

Tequila Slammer: ½ tequila, ½ lemon-lime flavoured soft drink.; When the two ingredients are in the shot glass, take a folded paper towel and put over the top. Slam the shot glass on the table, bar, etc. Make sure the drink fizzes. Turn up and drink while its still fizzing.

Tequila Sunrise: 2 oz (60 mL) tequila, 4 oz (120 mL) orange juice, 1 oz (30 mL) grenadine.; Mix the tequila and orange juice in a mix glass with ice cubes, then pour it over in a highball glass with crushed ice cubes.

Ti’Punch: 50 mL white agricultural rum, 10 mL cane syrup (cane sugar also works), ½ lime.; Pour rum, then cane juice. Squeeze lime juice, then drop lime into drink. Stir.

Tinto De Verano: 1 bottle (750 mL) of red wine, 500 mL of lemonade, lots of ice.; Pour the wine and lemonade into a pitcher and throw in lots of ice. If you feel like a stronger drink, add a shot of rum, or a vermouth such as martini. Pour into tall glasses and garnish with a twist of lemon.

Add sugar, lemon juice and gin. Stir well. Top off glass with club soda. A garnish, such as a maraschino cherry, is optional.; Variations include using (unsweetened) lime juice instead of lemon juice; skipping the sugar in the above recipe, and using lemon-lime soda instead of club soda; and using “Collins mixer” soda (essentially slightly sweet lime soda) om place of the lime juice, sugar and club soda.
