5 Best Fizz Cocktails for the Enneagram 6w5 Type

The Enneagram of Personality test is a method of categorizing a person’s personality based on nine basic types.

The ‘6 wing 5’ type is characterized by loyalty, introspection, responsibility, and innovation. This means you’re a big thinker and a defender of things you care about, but how do these traits manifest in your favorite type of cocktails?

Below are five fizzy drinks that pair well with your personality type.

1. Cranberry Bellini
The enneagram 6w5 personality type is considered to be more serious and mature, so you may enjoy this smooth take on a traditional bellini since it’s not as sweet as the traditional recipe.

Bellinis have their origin in Italy and are usually made with peach, sparkling wine, and a splash of juice for color. However, in this cocktail, you can replace the peach with a strong cranberry liqueur and fresh cranberry juice.

To make a serving of this simple yet gorgeous drink, you need:

• 10ml of cranberry liqueur
• 10ml of unsweetened cranberry juice
• 100ml of Prosecco
• Fresh cranberries or rosemary (for garnish)

Combine the liqueur, juice, and Prosecco in a glass. Top with your garnish of choice, and enjoy.

You can turn this into a cranberry mimosa (also called a poinsettia cocktail) to pair with brunch by replacing the Prosecco with Champagne.

2. Aperol Spritz
Another classic from Italy, the Aperol Spritz, is made with Prosecco and a bitter orange/rhubarb alcoholic drink called Aperol. This cocktail is refreshing and perfect for summer. Plus, an easy drink like this is perfect for someone who needs security in their life. This will taste great every time, so you don’t need to stress about making it exactly right.

To craft this drink, you’ll need:

• 60ml of Aperol
• 90ml of Prosecco
• Club Soda
• Orange slice (for garnish)

Combine Aperol and Prosecco in a glass. Add ice, a splash of club soda, and garnish with the orange slice.

3. Dark ‘N’ Stormy
Supposedly originating from Bermuda, a Dark ‘N’ Stormy consists of ginger beer, rum, and lime juice. For someone who spends a lot of time thinking, this spicy drink has the perfect amount of depth to ruminate on.

The ingredients of this fizzy cocktail are:
• Ginger beer
• 60ml of dark rum
• 20ml of fresh lime juice
• Slice of lime (for garnish)

Combine dark rum, lime juice, and ice in a glass. Fill the rest of the glass with ginger beer of your juice (the stronger, the better) and garnish with the lime slice.

The ginger beer provides the fizz for this cocktail, and for best results, use Gosling’s Black Seal Rum, a staple in Bermuda.

4. Champagne Cocktail
Sometimes simple is better and nothing is simpler than a trustworthy Champagne cocktail. This drink is easy to make and a good way to use more affordable Champagne that you otherwise don’t want to drink straight. For an enneagram type dubbed ‘the Loyalist’. staying loyal to the original fizzy cocktail is a breeze!

For this cocktail, you need:

• Champagne
• A sugar cube
• Orange or lavender bitters
• Citrus twist (for garnish)

Add the sugar cube and bitters of your choice to the flute. Fill the rest of the flute with Champagne, and if you’re feeling fancy, balance a citrus peel twist on the rim.

5. Gin Fizz
The enneagram 6w5 personality types aren’t known to be adventurous, but if you’d prefer a challenge, the gin fizz may be the drink for you. You’ll need a shaker to mix it all for this one. Don’t be put off by the egg white; it’s surprisingly good.

For this final drink, you need to compile:

• 60ml of gin
• 30ml of lemon juice
• 20ml of simple syrup
• 1 egg white
• 30ml of club soda
• Lemon wedge (for garnish)

Add (without ice) the gin, lemon juice, syrup, and egg white to your shaker. Shake for about a minute, add a couple of ice cubes, then shake for a minute longer.

Pour the mixture into a glass, top with the club soda, and garnish with the lemon wedge.

Try New Things!
While not every fizzy cocktail on this list may be exactly to your taste as a 6w5, it never hurts to try. Cocktails are also very versatile, so you can substitute ingredients and ratios as much as you like. Who knows, you may even find your new favorite drink!
