You could have some fun coming up with kitschy takes on conventional cocktails: Pumpacolada, Heliutini, Harvey Beltbuster.
If you're running a more sedate and upscale establishment, then you might want to go with less over-the-top allusions to the drink's effects: Naughty Violet, Thin Mint, Silly String, Hourglass.

Most of these make pretty hilarious names for sex moves as well.

The Early Riser is actually a wrestiling move perpetrated by a one Early Cuyler...
On the list though, the Roundabout sounds like a winner to me ^^

Would that be a "light" beer?

What about dollifying drinks. Anyone into that stuff?
As to topic, Poptail - was it mentioned?

I know this thread is old, but can't help adding my two pence. A beautiful thread topic, btw.
Sometimes you don't even need to invent anything - there are actual drinks in the real world named literally
"Soda pop"
"Bubble tea"
As for imaginary world - I'm with Mr Svensson here ^_^
I don't think drinks can be named with "less-over-the-top allusions": they are always named "the more over the top the better" in real world, so why not the same in a fantasy? Probably, the weaker the effect - the louder the name, like...
Devastator, Dominator, Tornado - drinks for kids, barely affecting adults
Helicola, Bubble blues, Swell (thanks for ideas!) - bar drinks
Go Big, Tendon Rebond, Iron Curve - sports drinks
Lily, Rose - something best avoided ^_^

Sometimes real life outdoes the wildest fantasy - there's a freshly squeezed blueberry juice "Swell"
no kidding!
You have to roam over the picture to enlarge: http://www.utkonos.ru/item/66/1132166
Apologies for gibberish - when I search "Swell Blueberry juice" I get only Violet and porn, so I took the liberty of searching in my language

Perhaps that would do well in it's own thread?

I believe PartymanX is under the impression we are talking about drinks and cocktails available in a fantasy or role-playing setting rather than inflation-related names for real life drinks.

I'm really not that good for making names, but I love the Bloaty Mary and Bubble Tea, if for no other reason than bubble tea having that ironic effect (wishful thinking), and the fact that I love that stuff.
So many other good names here though, can't choose 'em all!

I don't drink so I can't come up with any drink names. There is the "Blotato" though if we can get into expansion food.
Aw, and there i was getting ready to tell you about my research on making inflating drinks! Sorry, i don't know, but of course i do know how to make them.
