It's a Taylor Swift world, and we are just singing along with it. And with a Taylor Swift cocktail, we can sip along, too. From those angsty emotions as a teenager to the hope, despair, and love we feel from our twenties into adulthood, there is Taylor Swift song and lyric there for every high, low, love, loss, and win.
