Cocktail
A cocktail often touches the gap between the face you present and the appetites you keep quieter — sober student by day, looser company by night. The dream may ask where you're playing a role that doesn't match your inclinations, and what it costs you to keep two versions of yourself apart.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for cocktail, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
To drink a cocktail while dreaming, denotes that you will deceive your friends as to your inclinations and enjoy the companionship of fast men and women while posing as a serious student and staid home lover. For a woman, this dream portends fast living and an ignoring of moral and set rules.
