Country music singer turned pop star, Taylor Swift, is known for her narrative songwriting which is often inspired by her own life, especially her heartaches. If you’re an avid Taylor Swift fan, you know she mentions alcohol in a number of her songs, but guess which drinks are her favourite…
Champagne Problems
The deeply emotional 2020 song Champagne Problems debuted at number 12 in the Billboard Global 200 chart and Top 10 on Apple Music. It’s about a girl rejecting her lover’s marriage proposal and it references the vintage champagne Dom Perignon in the lyrics. She’s seen holding a glass in the video and she even sent a couple a bottle as a wedding gift, but that doesn’t necessarily mean she drinks it all the time.Diet Coke and Vodka
In her 2016 Vogue Cover Story, Taylor says her favorite cocktail is Diet Coke and vodka. Now she was a Diet Coke spokeswoman, so that part makes sense. But typically, people pair their Diet Coke with rum or whiskey. If you’re looking to go Taylor’s route, we suggest using a vanilla and caramel flavored vodka to make the drink a little more appetizing. Or you can stick with the original flavored Tito’s and call it a day.
Candy Cocktails
Taylor admits that wine makes her feel classy, but she loves sweet drinks. She’s quoted as saying, “If it doesn’t taste like candy or sparkles, I usually don’t drink it.” That seems at odds with her strange Diet Coke and vodka mixture, but this one we can get behind. Here are a few cocktail recipes for the sweets lovers out there:Jolly Rancher Cocktail
What’s more candy-like than a jolly rancher-flavoured cocktail? This drink gives a sweet, fruity taste that mimics our childhood favourite. It’s easy to drink and certainly meets Taylor’s candy taste requirement.

1 oz melon liqueur
4 oz cranberry juice
Optional: ginger ale or club soda for a little carbonation
Orange wedge
Directions:

Cardi Cocktail
This cocktail is inspired by Cardi B’s whipshots, a whipped cream that has 10% alcohol. The chocolaty-caramel cocktail will hit your taste buds just right. If you like Twix or Snickers, this is for you.
