Ok guys lets stop filling the pint glass with beer and get a little more fun. The Emerald Isle is a fantastic way to say “I’m better than light beer!”
11/2 oz Jameson Whiskey
3oz Midori Melon
4oz Ginger Ale
Fill the pint glass halfway with ice. Mix the whiskey, Midori, and the ginger ale together. Rock and roll… And when the cuter girl asks you what your drinking…Don’t be a tool offer her one.
So you rented a nice tux and want to look dapper? Well if the Vesper is good enough for James Bond, I’m sure it can work for you. Now please only order this drink while properly dressed. If you are wearing one of those bedazzled Affliction t-shirts…go have a bud light and get off my site. Now back to the drink…
3 oz Plymouth® gin
1 oz Ketel One vodka
1/2 oz Kina® Lillet Blanc wine
Shake well until ice cold, strain into a deep martini goblet. Add a thin slice of lemon-peel. Now get back to the baccarat table…
This is a fantastic drink because the Electric Kamikazeis in fact a Kamikaze with Blue Curacao instead of triple sec. This makes it interesting on many levels. If you are a bartender you can charge more for a blue drink. If you are a customer you have a great convo piece in your hands.
1-3 oz vodka
1 oz Blue Curacao liqueur
1 oz lime juice
Combine the Vodka, Blue Curacao, and Lime Juice in a glass with ice. Shake well, then pour through a strainer into a rocks glass with fresh ice in it.
Phew that’s a mouthful… This is an Irish shooter (if you couldn’t tell by the name.) The Manannan Mac Lir is named after the Celtic God of the sea; and contains all of the spirits a good “southie” would drink.
1/3 oz Bailey’s® Irish cream
1/3 oz Irish Mist® herbal liqueur
1/3 oz Irish whiskey ( I use Power’s)
Combine these ingredients, strain into the shot glass…Voila
Today’s drink is a perfect nightcap with colder weather approaching. The Rusty Nailis best served with one over-sized ice cube in the rocks glass rather than many regular sized cubes.
1 1/2 oz Scotch whisky
1/2 oz Drambuie® Scotch whisky
1 twist lemon peel
Today’s drink is in honor of the Hookah Bar on the East Side of Manhattan I was at last night. I normally don’t plug places but it is The Hookah Cafe at 303 E 60th. Here we go you crazy dancing turks…
3 oz premium whiskey
8 oz unsweetened iced tea
First we mix…then we stir. Because of the tea’s caffeine, the drink creates a very energized buzz, similar to that produced by an energy drink and vodka mixture. Have a great day my friends….
It may be that I am jamming along to Mars Hotel by the Dead or that I am just sick of seeing people drinking Long Island Iced teas… Today’s drink The Grateful Dead has but only one reason of existence, to get you smashed. We will need…
1 part tequila1 part vodka1 part light rum1 part gin1 part Chambord® raspberry liqueur
Good Morning World…In the spirit of pre-noon drinking, I bring you the 007. Even though it has an orange juice base; it is a perfect drink anytime. You will need…
3oz Stoli “O”
2oz orange juice (without pulp)
2oz 7up
We fill a pint glass halfway with ice. Then add 2oz of the vodka, the orange juice, and the 7 up. Use the remaining 1oz of vodka to top off the drink. Voila. Enjoy….just don’t let your boss find out
This drink is hotter than news of presidential teen pregnancy…Homer’s Plutonium is fantastic drink for the guy/girl who doesn’t want to taste what they are doing to themselves.
1 oz Butterscotch schnapps
1 oz melon liquor
1 oz high proof vodka ( I use 100 proof Smirnoff)
Combine the three ingredients with ice…Shake, strain, and pour. This also makes a fantastic rocks drink due to it’s neon green color.
With summer now over, it is time to throw away the frozen drinks and move onto some more masculine ingredients. Today’s drink The Wrinkle is the perfect after dinner drink or an opening round to your next bender. It was introduced to me by Matt Stein of Neptune by way of Hicksville N.Y.
1 oz. Kahlua coffee liquor
2 oz. Canadian Club
6 oz. cola
1 handful of ice
Add the Kahlua and Canadian Club in your shaker with ice. Shake vigorously, then pour into a pint glass simultaneously with your choice of cola.
On an interseting side note…this drink can be modified into a Downey by removing the coke and replacing it with another carmel colored soda (I prefer rootbeer.)
