Rumple Minze, Kahlua, and milk shaken over ice. I used to call it a White German, but that reminds people of the holocaust, which doesn't generally inspire people to drink, except maybe holocaust survivors.

I don't know why but gin is the only liquor i enjoy drinking on its own. Bourbon is ok but if im drinking out of the bottle i would prefer gin, the more pine needle flavor the better.

Any cocktail that has an overly evocative name is crap. Depth Charges, Sex on the Beach, Tequila Sunrise... they're all either too sweet or they're douchebag drinks.

if you're over 25 and you drink regularly drink cocktails that a kid could possibly enjoy, then you have lovely taste in drinks and you should stick to Applebees.

grow up and learn to enjoy stuff with bitters and apertifs and digestifs and poo poo like that.

Moscow mule, but no shortcuts. High quality vodka, ginger beer with some bite, and freshly squeezed lime juice.


I don't know if it has a name, but two shots of vodka, half a shot of amaretto, and half a shot of lime juice over ice with lime seltzer to fill tastes like key lime pie.

amaretto and whiskey/rum is pretty good 1:1

Bootleg Firecracker

1.5 oz Fireball Whiskey
1.5 oz After Shock
1.5 oz El Matador Tequila
Red Pepper Flakes (the kind you get with delivery pizza)

This one burns a bit.


Whiskey Split

1.5 oz R&R Whiskey
.5 oz Amaretto
1.5 oz 99 Bananas Schnapps
1 tsp Store Brand Chocolate Flavored Syrup
1 tsp Store Brand Strawberry Flavored Syrup
Whipped Dessert Topping (in spray can)
1 Wild Cherry Luden's Throat Drop
Ice

In a shaker, combine the whiskey, amaretto, and banana schnapps. Mix well, and poor into a small glass.

Add in the chocolate and strawberry flavored syrup, and stir gently.

Top the drink with a healthy amount of whipped dessert topping, and place the cherry (throat drop) on top. You might want to drizzle a bit more syrup on top as well.

The superior breakfast cocktail is not a mimosa, a screwdriver, or even a bloody mary. It is a michelada.

Valko posted:

Nothing quite like a bloody mary when it is done right.

Throw a bottle of good quality vodka in the freezer. Keep it in there long enough and you won't have to use taste-diluting ice cubes.

While it is getting nice and frozen, make the mix. Get a large jug and fill 3/4 the way up with tomato juice. Add a generous amount of orange juice - about 1/8 the entire mix. A glug of sweet sherry. Shake a good amount of white pepper and celery salt in there. Finish off with several dashes of worcestershire sauce and tobasco and stir.

Ignore the tom collins and highballs, serve this in a broad tumbler - 1 part vodka to 2 parts bloody mary mix. Don't bother with celery sticks.

Orange juice? sherry? i dunno... you can get away with a lot of weird ingredients in a bloody mary but i don't know. The only reason i'm not outright rejecting the idea is that you understand the necessity of Worcestershire sauce and frozen liquor.

Pickle juice, horseradish, clam juice, lime juice, and beer are also good additions that you didn't mention, although I wouldn't put them all in. Pick one or two.

Not a fan of vodka, but you can use pretty much any white liquor. Tequila is my favorite, moonshine is OK.

I had two really good cocktails while I was in Germany earlier this year. The first one was a charlie Chaplin. This drink was interesting because each sip of it would hit a different part of your taste buds. The first sip would be tart and then the second one would be sweet. Subsequent ones would be a nice blend of the two.

The second drink I had was an interesting take on a whiskey sour. It had Islay whiskey and bourbon. It replaced simple syrup with honey, lemon, and lime juice. The drink had a really nice smokey flavor and was the best version of a whiskey sour I've had.

It's like when you add a teaspoon of sugar for every can of tomatoes you use when cooking. It adds just enough sweetness to bring out the flavour and make the mix less 'soupy' wihtout taking away from the overall flavour.

FYI the book I got the recipe from also had a disclaimer that this was the second most controversial cocktail to write a recipe for as no two bartenders will make it the same way, the first being of course the martini.

Charlie chaplains are really good but not super alcoholic, there’s a drink that’s exactly the same but with a shot of dark Jamaican rum that is dope but I can’t for the life of me remember the name of it

The second drink you’re talking about is a penecillin cocktail and it’s fuckin dope

This sounds intriguing and a good reason to finally buy a bottle of mezcal. Thanks for the recommendation.

Looks like it calls for yellow chartreuse, by the way, but I don't know if I can be arsed to spend the money on that since I already have a bottle of green.
