Thats an excellent price, 8-12 dollar range. I'm not sure where your from, but $8 for a mix drink in this area is fantastic.
The key for NYC with respect to drinking ethanol is to look for the happy hour deals. You can get great prices and drinks. Try to avoid chains (they water down drinks), and go for local spots, the drinks tend to be better. Also, please tip your bartender, and if its a female, be nice (smile and casually ask how she is doing) and most of the time, they will make your drinks stupidly strong.
If your ever in NJ, stop by McGoverns in Newark NJ. They make the best Long Island Ice teas. Not for the faint of heart, as its an 8 oz cup with strong liquor. 2 will be enough for most folks, and you may have trouble walking after 2, and for only $16 for two!
Also, avoid Hoboken, its overated, and the drinks are a rip-off and its like drinking Poland Spring water. Plus the people there are PC to the extreme, so any little joke will cause offense. Best to go to NYC instead.
