There have been milky nails, jelly nails and cotton candy chrome nails, but what about a nail trend for the over-21 crowd? Go ahead and match your mani to blueberry milk or lattes all you want—we’re looking to coordinate our nails with our favorite cocktails. You can really hit the nail on the head with an obvious impression or give your go-to drink more of a subtle nod. These are some of the cocktail nail designs we have on our wishlist.

Tequila and Lime Nails

The intricate designs on these nails are captivating. We’re first drawn into the white and blue pattern often seen on traditional tequila bottles, and then we’re struck by the texture and details behind the limes. Altogether it’s a manicure that begs you order another round.

Espresso Martini Nails

It’s the summer of espresso, Sabrina Carpenter made sure of it. If you’re looking for that personalized “me espresso,” try a style like this that features a rich brown polish, as well as more milky shades for those who like a foamier espresso martini.

Miami Vice Nails

This is the perfect inspo if you’re looking to get something fun and flirty for your next girls’ trip. Neon palm trees, waves, sun and cocktail glasses with tropical umbrellas are sure to get the party started.

Limoncello Nails

The Italian lemon liqueur is understated and chill, and it meets its match with this mani. The French tips are similar to trending butter yellow shades, but the sparkles add a flair that suggests someone poured some bubbly in your limoncello.

Aperol Spritz Nails

Aperol Spritz has crept its way into almost every beauty trend, including nails. This design is a fresh take on the drink, giving a nod to its Italian roots. And can we talk about the attention to detail? Hello, ice cubes.

Bloody Mary Nails

The essence of bloody marys is their tomato base. Give the star fruit a nod with this tomato girl summer meets morning cocktail-inspired manicure.

Mojito Nails

These fun mint mojito nails balance out intricate limes and mint leaves with ombre glitter, and we can’t get enough.

Whiskey Neat Nails

Whiskey neat lovers tend to be sophisticated and classic, so this shade from Lights Lacquer ($13), aptly named Whiskey Neat, is the perfect subtle nod to the drink.

Margarita Nails

If margaritas are your go-to summer sip, these nails are the perfect pair. They feature sparkles, limes and a margarita glass filled to the brim, all in a fun array of bright green shades.
