Frankly, Delta's drink selection sucks. Gin & Tonic is the usual choice for me, because it is the best of the available choices.

Improvements I'd like to see:
More / Better mixers
Better scotch
Improved liquor in international business class. Its basically the same stuff that is available at the back of the bus.
Craft beer on all flights. The beer selection on international flights is bad.

I wish they would add Kahlua since I like white Russians. I would also like to see better wine in first on long hauls.

Woodford & ginger on domestic flights,
wine (champagne for aperitif, then red usually), and cognac (desert) for international.

Tequila and Fresca with a lime wedge. Quite refreshing and tasty! I think that's one of their signature drinks.

OPS 5
