In the future, real alcohol has become a luxury that your clients can not afford. These compounds are mixed to create your drinks.

Some Ingredients have expiration dates. (Purely lore, this does not affect gameplay.)

• Adelhyde - Red - Possibly related to aldehydes, which relate to fragrance.
  
• Bronson Extract - Yellow - Extract from the root of a Bronson Plant
  
• Powdered Delta - Blue - A powder of some sort.
  
• Flanergide - Green - ???
  
• Karmotrine - Cyan - Karmotrine is the tasteless alcohol factor, which determines alcohol content. Drinks without Karmotrine are non-alcoholic.

Mixing - To mix a drink mix it for a short period of time. Most drinks are mixed.

Blending - To blend a drink mix it untill it shakes a lot.

Ice - If a client wants a cool drink they usually mean they want one with Ice. If a drink is served "On the Rocks" it means with ice. Ice is hard to get out of your mixning machine.

Age - I'm unsure of what this refers to. Since drinks are made on the spot, they can not be old. Possibly related to the timing of shaking or the age of the ingredients?

There are more properties then these, but these are the primary ones.

• Girly - Drinks for feminine clients. These tend to be Sweet and are often a safe bet.
  
• Manly - Drinks for masuline clients. These tend to be disgusting or spicy.
  
• Classic - Classic drinks. These drinks tend to be older style.
  
• Classy - Not to be confused with Classic. Monied clients will tend to prefer these.
  
• Promo Drinks - Gimmick drinks. These drinks exist for odd reasons such as movie pomotions. These are usually disgusting.

Drinks with lore outside of their menu description will be hidden with a spoiler tag. I recommend avoiding spoilers until after your first play through. There are some very light spoilers for Read Only Memories as well. To view a spoilered section, hover your mouse over it.

You get a cut of each sale you make and tips, so always select the most expensive drink that makes the customer happiest. If you can't do both, make the customer happy first.
