If yer gonna drink all day -

You have to start early... 

Or as my old friend Captain Phil once said (as he was opening a Bud at 7:30 in the morning) - 

'What does time of day have to do with drinking'?

... 

... 

Mimosas are wonderful for the morning. They are light and fruity, with equal amounts orange juice and sparkling wine. They are the perfect thing to wake up to in the morning and they have the bonus of being very socially acceptable. 

Served as part of morning brunch on many occasions and are a popular casual drink in general. They also taste fantastic.

... 

As drinks go, a Bloody Mary can get pretty complex, especially if a number of spices and garnishes are included. Even though tomatoes are technically a fruit, that doesn’t seem to be the reason that you can safely drink a bloody Mary early in the day. Perhaps the reason is that the tomato makes the bloody Mary feel like a health drink – even if it does happen to be an alcoholic one.

... 

... 

For an early morning drink, it’s hard to go wrong with a Screwdriver. Because the cocktail is simply vodka and orange juice, you can prepare the drink easily. 

It is also a good option at home, where you can change up the ratio of vodka to orange juice (traditionally 2:1) to suit your own tastes. Because of the simple nature of the drink, it isn’t one that I would personally choose to order at a bar, but it is fantastic choice for the home.

... 

I love the way that Tequila Sunrise lives up to its name. This is one drink that looks fantastic and it really does look like you should be drinking it first thing in the morning. The orange-red at the bottom comes from the grenadine syrup. This part is actually added last, but its weight makes it sink to the bottom. Just try not to drink this one with a straw or you will probably end up with a mouthful of syrup.

... 

The Bellini uses peach nectar or puree along with sparkling wine. Generally speaking, a prosecco wine is preferred, but the drink can be made with any type of white sparkling wine. There are also variations on the drink that use other fruit flavors, like the Tintoretto, which uses pomegranate juice. Personally, I quite like the traditional bellini and the peach flavor works well in the morning.

... 

Martinis aren’t really morning drinks, but fruit flavored ones are generally an exception. One of the key tricks with a drink for early in the day is simply to pick ones that look fruity and fun, rather than ones that look like serious drinks. After all, people seem to draw a large line between someone drinking something for its taste and someone who is focused primarily on the alcohol. With the Watermelon Martini in the picture, it’s easy to see how the drink would be viewed as part of a casual morning or afternoon and nothing more.

Like gunfire, Irish coffee is an unnoticeable drink, and it is also a rather sophisticated one. The drink is essentially coffee that includes Irish whisky. Traditionally the drink also uses some fresh cream that is poured on top as a layer. The coffee is then consumed through the cream. Although the cocktail calls for cream that hasn’t been whipped, it is often made with whipped cream instead, especially as it is easier to make this sit on the top of the drink.

... 

Unlike most other items on this list, Brandy/Bourbon Milk Punches aren’t fruity and they don’t use coffee. Despite this, their milky nature and their history makes them a well-accepted choice at any time of day. The basic recipe uses bourbon, rum and milk, along with vanilla extract, simple syrup and grated nutmeg.

... 

Here’s another one you probably never heard of. This one is perfectly acceptable early in the day. As you might have guessed, the Ramos gin fizz does use gin as its main alcohol. It also uses egg white, club soda and sugar like the previous fizz. However, there are some differences, like the use of both lemon and lime juice for the citrus (as well as orange flower water) and the addition of heavy cream. The end result is still a white fizz drink that is perfectly acceptable any time of the day.
