Also, if people could list the colors of the drinks with the names, that would be helpful.
Or else I could just google them, like someone who's not that lazy.

I've been working on a song about the difference between analogy and metaphor.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Appletinis are electric green.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
See, I'm used to grown women ordering a Cosmo. That's why I was thinking Sex on the Beach (pinky-red) or an Alabama Slammer (orangey-red). Plus they have ridiculous names that any grown woman should be embarassed to order.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
Research help request: What's a kind of chichi drink that's just a little too girly for a grown woman, but not so much too girly that it's glaring?
There's also a Pink Lady, but they're sort of old fashioned. Also, very pink. A strawberry daquiri is girly.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
Also, a Seabreeze is fairly pink. Even if it is Lorne's drink.
He's just letting out his inner prep.
I'd have to go with strawbetty daquiri, as per PMM's suggestion. Tequila sunrises are also on the orangy-pink side, and possibly girly (although I'd lump them under "Vacation Drinks").

You know what? I think I just know girls who drink girly drinks. Because I have friends who order strawberry daquiris all the time.
I more than make up for them, though, with the dark beer and bourbon.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
I like girly drinks, and drink them often, because they are yummy and booze-filled.
If I feel the need to be macho, I drink tequila. 'Cause, fun, with the salt and everything.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
I think anything fruity probably will fit. I know jack about cocktail drinks, and usually end up ordering something-Martini--Cranberry Martini, Chocolate Martini et al. They sound kind of girly to me.
On an entirely different note: It's funny what you get from eavesdropping on/glancing at other folks talk about fandom with which you are not familiar. Having read none of the Harry Potter books but being surrounded by people who talk about them and HP fanfic incessantly, I've decided,
Harry = Buffy
Draco = Spike
Hermione = Willow
Ron = Xander
Snape = Giles with not a small touch of Ripper
The other day, someone on my Flist was complaining about Crack-ban and how there is nothing but Harry/Draco rec in HP section, and this sounded *exactly* like what folks have been saying about Buffy/Spike on BBF a while back. Plus, Draco's got all that blondness, ambiguous evil-osity and adversarial relationship with our main hero.
I don't have much clue in who the ever-popular Sirius and Remus are supposed to be. Apparently they are (or maybe just one of them) werewolves, but it sounded like they have personalities very different from Oz's. Huh.
