HAY! How you make that drank?

[Mesozoic Mister Nigel]

I don't remember if I've posted this yet, but:

Hammosas:

1 part Hamms
1 part orange juice

Better than it sounds!

Also, Sunny Hammosas:

1 part Hamms
1 part Sunny Delight

Takes 2 gross things and makes them taste perfectly acceptable!

Bwine:

Take a can of PBR(actually it's better if you drink 3 or 4 first, so take 5 just to be safe), and some rose-colored or white boxed wine(Franzia works great). After you're already moderately drunk, drink half of a PBR, then fill the rest of it with the boxed wine.

It's actually not bad.

Of course I've only had it once already trashed, but I remember it tasting pretty good, and it was certainly good for the  factor.

Heh, we used to do this at the powerpad, but we used Schlitz... not PBR. Anyway, I can attest to this thing not being bad.


I'll share some of my favorite drinking recipes:

Moscow Mule
1 part Vodka, 2 parts Ginger Beer, served on ice in a copper mug.
(there is a place in town that does these the right way, and its bad-ass)

Singapore Sling (great for Hunter S Thompson Day) (this recipe is lifted from the Raffles Hotel, although I've seen about two million variations on this)

30ml Gin
15 ml Cherry Brandy
120 ml Pineapple Juice
15 ml Lime Juice
7.5 ml Cointreau
7.5 ml Dom Benedictine
10 ml Grenadine
A Dash of Angostura Bitters
Garnish with a slice of Pineapple and Cherry

Personally, I usually use 1.5 oz B&B, 1.5 oz Hendricks Gin, .05 oz of sour, dash of grenadine, fill with pinapple, with a lemon.
Kind of fruity, yes, but it does help kill the taste of the Mescal.

Somebody posted a Bloody Mary recipe earlier, here's how I like them:
2.0 oz Vodka (if you use a decent vodka, you can be a little heavy handed, I usually get smashed on these when I drink them.)
8 oz Tomato juice
pinch of black pepper
pinch of celery salt
dash Worcestershire
3 dashes of CHOLULA
sometimes I use citron vodka for kicks.

One of my old co-workers came up with this variation on a typical girl drink, he calls it the Don Johnson

Don Johnson
3 oz Citron Vodka, 1 can of Redbull, Splash of Cranberry, served on ice in a pint glass with a cherry garnish and an umbrella.


In truth though, 90% of the time I just drink beer, and/or straight liquor. In fact I've severely cut back on my drinking all together.

Here's another recipe attributed to a former coworker, this one is a motherfucker.

The Misanthropic Spirit of the Forest

1.0z Jim Beam (for the misanthropy)
1.0z Christian Brothers (for the spirit)
1.0z Bombay Saphire (for the forest)

Chill, Strain, and Slam.

Oh, as a special note, not just for this drink... but for all drinks that involve chilling (esp martinis), and I cannot stress this enough, do not overchill (4-5 shakes is generally good) and by all means DO NOT leave the shaker sitting around while you go do something else. If you chill, you have to chill and then strain immediately. I'm sure all of us here are smart enough to understand this, but I've really had to drill this into some peoples heads.

Frankly, I'm surprised and disappointed at the number of bartenders I worked with at my former job, who couldnt make a fucking martini to save their lives. Honestly, I'm glad to be gone, but I'd kind of like to find a new bartending gig.

This pic totally reminded me of the post above:

There you go, Jenne. Lol.

[Jenne]

Also:  No Cointreau, eh?

[Suu]

It's all in the mix I got. If I had the money, I'd mix my own with cointreau, grandmarnier, and sweet and sour.

HA! 

[Suu]

Grandmarnier isn't necessary, but it gives it a nice smooth citrusy flavor and adds more alcohol potency. 

[Jenne]

Oh, I love grand marnier.  In fact, I'm mourning the fact we have none...nor much other yummy liqueurs.

The Scientician

90% lab grade ethanol + something to mix it with so you don't vomit from the flavor ==

the most horribly drunk night of your life.




No, I have not tried this. But I know people who have.

[Jasper]

Oh my god, did they seem stupider afterwards?
