ITT SUU IS YOUR BARTENDER.

[Suu]

SPECIAL REQUEST

So I have a friend who is not a registered PD.commie, but I have word that she sometimes lurks here

now normally I would not ask you to make one for "some random lurkerspag friend of mine", Suu, except that this particular friend is one of the other few Jethro Tull fans in existence. Pretty pwease? (and yes, she's 21)


Note: she dislikes vodka.

"

1/2 shot Bacardi Silver
1/2 shot Tanqueray Gin
1/2 shot Cuervo Gold
1/2 shot Granmarnier
1/2 shot Chambord

Shake the liquors together with ice and pour into a highball glass.

Then add:

Splash Blue Curacao or Island Blue Pucker
Splash Green Apple Pucker
Splash Strawberry Pucker

DO NOT STIR. You want the colors to be chunky and vibrant.

Note: This is ALL ALCOHOL and will make her 3x the legal limit if she consumes the whole thing in less than an hour. I would strongly recommend adding ginger ale or 7-Up to cut it a bit and add a bit of fizz before adding the Puckers.

Woooaaah

what's it called?

I shall call it...

"You're sitting on this stool for only another 45.2 minutes."

[BadBeast]

Something substantial, preferably involving Absinthe for BadBeast?

Absinthe is tricky to work with, but let's see what I can do...It does go great with coffee but I think I can get a little bit more creative.

"The Bad Beast"

1 part Absolut Citron
1/2 part absinthe
1/2 part Drambuie
Splash soda water
Garnish with a lime wedge

The talents of the very best of any barstaff, in comparison with the rare quality you bring to the job, equates approximately to what Avril Lavigne has contributed to the Music Industry, when compared with what Janis Joplin left for us. And I mean that from the bottom of my Glass!

BTW, for me to publish this book. I will need the following:

Before and after shots
Pictures of the mixed drinks
Testimonials

[hooplala]

You never fail to impress, Suu.

For before and after, do you want an empty glass and the finished drink, or the finished drink and an empty glass?

[Cramulus]

Suuuu, tell me about the Cramulus

I want what YOU looked like before and after consumption of the beverage. Creativity is encouraged.

[Suu]

Suuuu, tell me about the Cramulus

"The Cramulus Enema"

1 handle of Popov Vodka
725mL bottle of Mt. Gay [Wango and Tango] Rum
1 Jug of Carlo Rossi Fortissimo
1 gallon of orange juice


Combine everything into a barrel. Put imbiber into barrel with libation, hose down with a fire hose prior to defenestration.


...Or you could, ya know, make it out of a vodka that isn't distilled from sweaty old Russian armpits in South Boston, and portion ingredients to a highball, but this sounds cooler.

[Cramulus]

  that sounds absolutely wretched

[Suu]

that sounds absolutely wretched

It's like sangria.



....The Salazorian Sangria.

[Jenne]

Ooh!  How did I only see this thread now??

There already is a drink called the Hoopla, believe it or not. So I shall combine this with a mint julep.

"The Fine Southern Hoopla"

Muddle mint leaves and granulated sugar in the bottom of a highball glass
Add crushed ice

Pour over:
1/2 part Brandy
1/2 part Granmarnier
Splash lemon juice

Oshit.  I have all this RIGHT NOW.

I'm making myself a Southern Hoopla like NOW dammit. 

[Jenne]

Ha!  See, this is what happens when I have all my work cancelled for half the week:

Fresh mint from the backyard (don't mind the leeks growing up in between--it's an old battle between the two plants in this planter, I can't be arsed to change it for now...):


Ingredients are assembled for the Southern Hoopla a la Suu:


Don't forget the splash of lemon juice (I am partial to fresh since we have a tree out back, might as well...):


And VOILA!


Tastes yummy and STRONG!  Is a sipping drink.  Thanks, Suu!

[Suu]

It's actually good? 

[Jenne]

Yeah.  It's a sorta orangey mojito-tasting thing.  But with brandy instead (which, depending on your rum preferences, might be smoother).  Anyway, I am about halfway done with it. 

Uh...dinner's gonna be late. 

[Suu]

I may have something with this cocktail book yet!
