List of duo and trio cocktails

Duos and trios are a family of mixed drinks. A duo contains a spirit and a liqueur; a trio additionally contains a creamy ingredient, commonly cream or Irish cream.

This family of drinks is named in Gary Regan's The Joy of Mixology. There is much variation in their ingredients, but their defining feature is that they are sweet due to their liqueur content.

A "B and B" is made from equal parts of cognac (brandy) and Bénédictine. It is typically served on the rocks, but may also be served straight. The producers of Bénédictine market this cocktail ready-mixed under the label "B & B."

Rusty Nail
IBA Official Cocktail
Type	Cocktail
Primary alcohol by volume	Rye whiskey Scotch whisky
Served	On the rocks; poured over ice
Standard drinkware	"old-fashioned" glass, stemmed glass "martini-style"
IBA specified ingredients*	4.5 cl (9 parts) Scotch or rye whisky 2.5 cl (5 parts) Drambuie
Preparation	First fill a 16 oz glass with crushed ice until it is overflowing. Pour in 5 parts drambuie and 9 parts scotch. Stir gently, as to not bruise the ice. Keep stirring until a thick frost develops on the side of the glass. Garnish with a lemon twist. Serve.

A Rusty Nail is made by mixing Drambuie and Scotch. Many prefer less Drambuie to decrease the sweetness of the drink. Scotch has a fairly biting and hot taste that is counterbalanced by the honeyed, herbal overtones of the Drambuie. A Rusty Nail can be served in an old-fashioned glass on the rocks, neat, or "up" in a stemmed glass. It is most commonly served over ice. A Rusty Nail served without ice is sometimes called a Straight Up Nail. The Canadian version of this drink is called a "Donald Sutherland" and substitutes rye whiskey for Scotch.

Trios

Alexander: equal parts gin, crème de cacao, and half and half, mixed in a cocktail shaker with ice, and poured into a cocktail glass and sometimes topped with grated nutmeg or cinnamon. The Alexander is the ancestor of the Brandy Alexander.

White Russian: vodka, Kahlúa, and cream (IBA Official Cocktail)
