In Parshas Zachor (Devarim 25:18) it says:
ויזנב בך כל
All tails are within you
This would presumably include cocktails, and the Passuk teaches us that all of these can be found in the Torah (Shebichsav and Shebaal Peh).
Another proof to this is Yeshaya 51:17, where it says:
מִיַּ֥ד יְהוָ֖ה אֶת־כּ֣וֹס... שָׁתִ֖ית מָצִֽית
From God's hand (i.e. in the Torah) the cup which you ...drink from can be found.
Therefore, here's a list of common cocktails. Which common cocktails (whether from that list or not) can you find mentioned or hinted to in Tanach, Talmud, or elsewhere in Jewish literature?
Answer
There is (unfortunately) one cocktail that Judaism is very definitely against. As we read in Tehillim 9:6:
אִבַּדְתָּ רָשָׁע שְׁמָם מָחִיתָ
You have destroyed the evil [drinks]; their name is mojito.
