mint? cue up the mojito...
Great non-alcoholic summer drink: mango lassi
Rock-Star Lemonade, from the Hard Rock Hotel in Vegas. 16oz glass w/GreyGoose V, lemonade and crushed ice via 19yr/old tan hottie.
Gin & Tonic
Call this the Adios Motherfucker..
Everyone knew what it was in California, nobody here on the ice coast. Go figure:
Start by mixing the following in a pint glass:
1 part rum (and by "part" I usually mean shot)
1 part tequila
1 part vodka
1 part gin
2 parts blue curacao
Shake that up. Then, carefully add on top:
3 parts sweet and sour (enough to fill the glass to about 1" from the top)
Then, very carefully, add:
Enough sprite or 7-up to fill the glass.
I love this drink.. Because it's blue but not "girlly." And it fucks you up. 2 of those and most people are done..
My 2 for the summer:
Cocktail-Capirinha (brazil)
1/2 a lime,
1 Tbsp sugar in bottom of glass, mash with wooden spoon
2 shot Cachaca (like rum, but from sugar cane as opposed to molasses (sp?), rum is a fine substitute)
ice
Delicious
Beer: Sessions (Full Sail)
great lager w/ lots of taste in the cutest stubby 11 oz bottle
Cachaca is Brazilian rotgut Rum. All Rum is made from Sugar Cane, so it's basically all the same ol' shit, but like all liquors there can be a world of difference in taste. There's something similar made in Costa Rica that, due to its moonshiney nature, cannot legally be called "rum" for tax purposes. Man, that stuff's a headache in a bottle.
For a truly fine Mojito try this recipe (EPSkis can vouch:)
Pint Glass
1/2 lime squeezed into glass
Whole Sprig of Mint
add Ice
add 1oz simple syrup made from Turbinado Sugar (like 'Sugar in the Raw')
Fill 2/3 to top with light Rum (I like Cruzan)
fill rest with filtered water
lightly shake with Silver Cocktail shaker
pour back in Pint Glass
BTW, simple syrup is 2pts sugar to 1pt. water. Warm water and stir in sugar until dissolved. I make a pint at a time and keep it in the fridge.
dark & stormy
dark rum
ginger beer
ice
wedge o' lime
Summer? Drinks?
Vodka Tonic:

Pour Vodka into aforementioned drinking receptacle
Add Tonic to the thing holding the ice and vodka

Cape Codder:

Blue Whales:
1 part Vodka
1 part Blue Curasao
More or less Lemonade depending on who you're makin 'em for.
They'll ruin your life.
I've heard this called both an Electric Lemonade, of which this is not correct and there appears to be about 10 different ways to mix it now, and a Blue Motorcycle.Quote:

Sounds gay, but it is good and COLD.
- Sparkleberry -
in a pint glass:
half Sparks Malt Energy Beverage
half vodka
some ice
garnish with fruit
Drink a few of these and you'll have the energy to RUN home from the bar and the black out to wonder why you're all scraped up from falling down on the run home.
Maybe one of you can tell me what I drank the other night at a rooftop gathering downtown...
All I know was it had Midori watermelon liquer and some kind of coconut rum in it. Dunno what else but it was very green from the Midori so apparently, that was the bulk of it. Great summer night drink.
Purple Hooter:
2 oz Top shelf vodka
1 1/2 oz Chambord
1/2 oz triple sec
Best done as a shot stained through ice
sandwhiched between a nice pair of "hooters"
Goombay Smash:
One part each:
Pineapple Rum
Coconut Rum
Light Rum
Dark Rum
Four parts pineapple juice
One part orange juice
Juice of one lime
Grenadine for color
Also had one in Bimini (End of the World Saloon REPREZENT!) that had some cream of coconut in it to make it err... "frothy." I think it was coconut....
wait... isn't that the Leg Spreader from Hot Dog the Ski Movie?Quote:

(Yeah, I usually keep that quiet myself, but DAMN they're good!) :wink:
Natty Light on the verge of freezing, cold baby, cold!
Don't you think that needs another shot of rum just for taste? (and maybe a mint leaf :biggrin: )Quote:
