The No. 1 cocktail choice among New Yorkers is not the Manhattan or even the Long Island Iced Tea — it’s the vodka martini, a new study reveals.

Margaritas were the second choice, and mojitos third, in the Big Apple, according to Google trend data collected by Casino.ca.

There were a whopping 173,000 online searches for martinis in the Empire State in the last 12 months, while margaritas saw 164,000 searches and mojitos 156,000.

Carrie Bradshaw would be happy to know that Cosmopolitans, her favorite vodka-cranberry medley on “Sex and in the City,” came in fourth, with 149,000 Google searches.

Cosmopolitans’ popularity spikes in the Empire State’s winter months, while booze-packed Long Island Iced Teas — with 110,000 searches — dominate in the warmer months, the study noted. 

Bitter Manhattans saw a dismal 31,000 inquiries in the past year. 

Margaritas were crowned the nation’s favorite boozy beverage, thanks to a staggering 31 states – including Texas, California and Florida – where the tequila libation ruled.

Martinis took silver nationwide, winning the favor of nine states and Washington D.C. 

Constantines — a gin-infused cocktail, usually garnished with orange bitters — took third, backed by five states.
