The good people at Flowing Data uncovered this old graphic which they dubbed the “Engineer’s Guide to Drinks.” The name’s fitting: unless you’re an engineer these diagrams will probably leave you more frustrated than inebriated.

Check out the full size PDF to see the the drinks in full dot and stripe detail.
