If this has been covered before I apologize, but I thought it would be fun if everyone posted what their favorite boat drinks are (not for the Captain while driving of course!), and if they are more unique, what recipe you use. The drink I seem to have most often on my boat (again, while docked) is vodka cranberry, but mojitos are probably my favorite drink to make on it.
 
When underway - Coors Light

When on Anchor - Dark 'n' Stormy
 
Anything that tastes or smells like liquor.

Seriously: wine, bordeaux preferably. And also beers sometimes. Most of the time Gin. Gasoline (when under $3 a gallon)

On second thought: anything that smells or tastes like liquor.
 
Bud Light
Bacardi Limon' and Diet Coke/Pepsi or Diet Sprite (not cuz I'm watching my weight, cuz it's not as sweet)
Leinies Honeyweis (dock neighbor's beer in HIS frig. LOL)
Leinies Sunset Wheat
 
A great boat drink is a Toasted Fisherman: pour equal parts canadian whisky, amaretto, and sour over ice. Add a splash of 7-up. Seems to please both the men and women!
 
Any good dark rum with branch water, save the ice for the paying customers.
 
One drink I had down in the BVI on a vacation on a chartered trimaran was a pain killer. I don't remember exactly what was in it, but it did seem to kill pain very well, and was tasty to boot! BestMate - Ah, Bermuda! I love Bermuda. My wife and i stayed at the Elbow Beach Resort and had a great time. The Dark n Stormy's were definitely good!
 
Pain Killer Recipe:

2 oz Pusser's® dark rum
1 oz cream of coconut
4 oz pineapple juice
1 oz orange juice
Shake or stir ingredients, and pour over ice in a tall glass. Sprinkle nutmeg on top, and serve

Of course, going to the Soggy Dollar for one works too!
 
Painkillers!! Yeah Baby!!
Pusser's Rum with 4 parts pineapple juice, 1 part cream of coconut and 1 part orange juice served over the rocks with fresh nutmeg on top. You have a choice of numbers 2, 3 or 4, which designate the amount of rum that goes in. There is a Pussers' Bar in the Marriott on the Annapolis waterfront.
 
When achored or moored for the night, a good Irish Whiskey straight up and Van Morrison's Moon dance on the CD player.
 
Anything with a lid. Soda/beer cans are out, as are drink boxes and pouches. Learned early on that kids take one sip and put them in a drink holder, then it gets bounced around and splashes all over.

We like gatorade. I hardly ever have alcohol on board. Maybe every once in a while I'll take a few beers out when the boys and I go out without the wife and kids.
 
Captain Morgain, once moored or anchored, and changed into my pirate shirt. ;-)

Light beer when messin about
 
Margarita, my own mix:

4 oz Cabo Wabo Anejo Tequila
1 oz Grand Marinier
1 oz Simple Syrup
Juice of one lime

Seems strong, but for me it's fine, i'm a big guy. I can easily have two of these. Feel free to put less tequila in it.

Liqour substitutions:
Patron tequila (gold or silver)
1800 tequila
Corazon tequila
Cointreau

I also like a Jameson on the rocks.

Of course I only drink these while at the dock. I never drink and boat, if i'm driving it's water or gatorade.

Cheers!

underway, gatorade

after a good docking, Wine Zin, after a great docking Malibu and Cranberry after a bad docking....both
 
Daiquiris and magaritas for the ladies, (and my self if it is really hot).

H2O before a great docking,
Corona before an average docking,
EL CAPITAIN before a fun docking (JK)

Everyone have a safe boating season....
 
Black Velvet and soda at the dock or at anchor. Once in a while I'll sneak in something else [daiquiri, margarita, etc,] but I always pay for it the next morning!

What is a "Dark 'n Stormy"? Recipe?
 
Water and ice right out of our tank when underway. Slipped or on the hook--rob roy.
