The Right Mix - 10245 points

I remembered playing this weird bartender flash game as a child, so I decided to figure out how to get the highest score possible: The cocktail has a maximum volume of 180. Though, when your cocktail has a volume of exactly 180, you can still add one more drop before needing to shake, but that last drop won't add any points. Bottles will give a certain amount of points per 1 volume: Vodka = 50 points Triple Sec = 45 points Cranberry Juice = 45 points Lime Juice = 44 points Tequila = 39 points Sambuca = 35 points Cognac = 33 points Creme de Cacao = 29 points Champagne = 26 points Cointreau = 20 points Whisky = 17 points Passion Fruit Juice = 17 points Orange Juice = 14 points Creme de Menthe = 13 points Absinthe = 13 points Calvados = 11 points Kahlua = 5 points Vermouth = 4 points Gin = 3 points Tonic = 2 points Additives take up 50 volume, but even if you have less than 50 volume left, you can still fit the additive in the cocktail and get all its points. Ice = 1000 points Lemon = -100 points Shaking the cocktail adds points depending on the number of “shake cycles“ performed. The 1st shake adds 10 points, the 2nd shake adds 20 points, the 3rd shake adds 30 points, and the 4th shake adds 40 points. The cocktail explodes on the 5th shake, so the maximum number of points you can get from shaking is 100. Instead of holding down the shake button, it's easier to get a desired number of shake cycles by simply clicking the shake button a number of times. Adding a lemon garnish will add 200 points to your score. Your final score will be halved if your cocktail has a “variety“ value of less than 3 or greater than 8. Your cocktail's variety value starts at 0 and is incremented by 1 for every time you pour a bottle or additive that gives a different amount of points from the previous one poured into the cocktail. Best recipe: 1) Pour a volume of 178 of vodka (50 * 178 = 8900 points) 2) Pour a drop of triple sec or cranberry juice (45 points) 3) Add ice (1000 points) 4) Shake 4 times (10 20 30 40 = 100 points) 5) Add lemon garnish (200 points) Score: 8900 45 1000 100 200 = 10245 points Worst recipe: 1) Add a lemon (-100 points) 2) Pour a drop of tonic (2 points) 3) Add 3 lemons (-300 points) 4) Don't shake 5) Don't add lemon garnish Score: 2 - 400 = -398 points Website of the original author of this game: Version of the game used in this video:
