The answers to today's Strands, game #319, are ZOMBIE SIDECAR MARTINI STINGER 
COSMOPOLITAN SPANGRAM: COCKTAILS My rating: Easy My score: 1 hint 

When I saw todays theme I initially feared that it was going to be about 
boring legal words (and whod want that), but my concerns were soon eased when 
the first Hint gave me ZOMBIE  which is both a slow-moving human whose brain 
has been eaten by an inexplicable virus OR a delicious beverage made from 
rum, lime and grapefruit juice. 

Why its called a Zombie is uncertain although I suspect youd find navigating 
stairs tricky if you had more than a couple. 

Strands also included the classic cocktail COSMOPOLITAN  not a word that I 
use very often, but one that was strangely satisfying to connect letter by 
letter.
