Ok, so here we go, I will start with a personal favorite, very popular in the place where I come from...
Ingredients:
Tequila
Half a glass of Freshly squeezed orange juice
Quarter of a glass of Grapefruit soda
Red chili powder
Lemon juice
English sauce
Tabasco sauce
Seasoning sauce (like this one --> http://www.mexgrocer.com/2708.html)
Salt & Pepper
1. So, first of all get a tall glass previously frozen, put some lemon on the edge, and scarch it with salt, like with the margaritas.
2. Then pour inside the glass some ice cubes, the tequila, one squeezed lemon, salt & pepper, the tabasco sauce, the seasoning sauce, and the english sauce (worcestershire). Mix with a stick, so you don't ruin the salt scarch on the top of the glass.
3. In a different recipient, mix the orange juice with the red chili powder, and blend until it becomes red and totaly mixed.
4. Pour the red orange juice until half of the tall glass, and then fill the rest with grapefruit soda.
5. Enjoy!

Gin, tonic, and a big slap of Angostura. Ice only on a hot day.
Yeah, I know, neither is that much of a recipe, but IMO they taste better than most mixed drinks.

Cuban Mojito
The original authentic recipe from Havana, Cuba:
1 teaspoon powdered sugar
Juice from 1 lime (2 ounces)
4 mint leaves
1 sprig of mint
Havana Club white Rum (2 ounces)
2 ounces club soda
My recipes:
Two-fer
Two shots of Wild Turkey, four small ice cubes
Rob Roy with Bourbon instead of Scotch (for those of you that started tending bar in the last few decades, a Rob Roy is three parts Scotch to one part sweet vermouth)
Wild Turkey Rare Breed straight up
and when I'm not in the mood for whiskey:
three to four garlic and jalapeño stuffed olives drowned in three shots of gin (usually Plymouth or Dry Fly--not that cheap crap the kids drink) and a splash of dry vermouth stirred (James Bond is a wuss that likes weak drinks) together in ice. discard the ice before pouring over the olives. drink two of these then enjoy the olives

Originally posted by SeitseWell, yesno. They're very similar, but lemons are Citrus Lemon, limes are Citrus Latifolia (and some others). Related species, not quite the same thing. They taste similar but different, too - limes are fresher, lemons are more purely sour.

Thanks for sharing, Richard! 🙂
1 part amaretto
2 parts blended scotch (don't waste the real stuff on this)
a dash Angostura (optional)
a good squeeze of lime juice
Not really my favourite, but it's not bad, and at least it gets rid of the amaretto, which is muck you really can't drink pure. Now if only I had a recipe to make slivovice drinkable...
