I do not merely dance. I bewitch. I seduce. I enchant and I bewilder. Throw money.
(Gee, Wally must have seen me dance!)
The Sip’n Fly:
“I shot the sherrif, I shot the deputy too. No, it wasn’t in self defense. They both looked at me cockeyed so I capped 'em. Then I shot the mayor, then the firechief, decapitated the librarian, impaled the dog catcher, used a spoon to remove the groundskeepers eyes and sent the leader of the local KKK in full KKK uniform to downtown Manhattan. Then I made sweet love to the sexy 18 yr old intern, and it was all good.”
I always wanted to hear someone say they want to drink a Louie.
One Louie please.
Uke, you have done me great honor with the Lux Fiat. Next NY-area doper gathering you, Manhattan, and Billdo are all getting Lux Fiats on me. Damn, I just like saying that.
“Barkeep! Four Lux Fiats over here!” And verily, the bartender will not laugh.
“Are you frightened of snakes?”
“Only when they dress like werewolves.”

Oh! Concoct the ChrisCTP for me, please!!! I’ll buy you one the next time I’m in NYC.

Me & my not-too-worldly self have never, ever tasted bourbon or Madeira. So Ike, can you give me an idea of how this is going to taste? I’m quite certain it doesn’t suck, but a description would be cool. I might try one in Chicago!

Now, that sounds like I might like it. Someone should print up this thread and bring it to ChiDope in May; we can give the list to the bartenders and order by name. (Not me, I have no printer.)
Give me immortality, or give me death!
well, I’d like to be made drinkable and intoxicating, so what the heck, if Uke is still game, I’d love one.
Try not to have a good time…this is supposed to be educational.

Silos…missile silos…Cold War…the Soviet Union…okay, back to the vodka bottle
The Silo
2 oz Vodka
1 oz Kahlua
Juice of 1/4 Lemon
Stir with ice in an old-fashioned glass. Garnish with a lemon twist.
*monster: You could just order a Zombie, y’know.
Let’s see…this calls for the Trader Vic treatment.*
The monster
3 oz Light Rum
1 oz Triple Sec
1/2 oz Grenadine
Juice of 1 Lime
1 tsp Sugar
Shake with ice and strain into a hollowed-out pineapple shell half-filled with crushed ice. Decorate with Maraschino cherry and a pineapple wedge. Serve with straws and, possibly, a tiny paper umbrella.
Sassy: I don’t remember Brigid drinking anything at all…the scenes she’s in aren’t exactly festive. She does eat breakfast with Spade the morning after they Do It, and she helps him make sandwiches and coffee on the night they’re all waiting for Effie to deliver the Falcon. Spade has a highball with Gutman…unfortunately, it’s been doped. In any case, have one of these:
The Sassy
2 oz Gin
Juice of 1/2 Lime
Ginger Ale
Pour first two into a highball glass filled with ice cubes. Fill with ginger ale. garnish with a lime wedge.
The Cabbage
Hope I don’t have to come up with a Corned Beef…
3 oz Irish Whiskey
1/2 oz Sweet Vermouth
Dash Orange Bitters
Stir with ice and strain into a cocktail glass.

The zyada
1 oz Gin
1 oz Green Creme de Menthe
1 oz Light Cream
Shake with ice and strain into a chilled cocktail glass. Crush a pinch of dried mint between your fingers and sprinkle on top.
The Louie, eh? I’d say this calls for Bourbon
3 oz Bourbon
1 oz Water
1/2 tsp Sugar
Swirl sugar and water in a sour glass until melted. Fill with ice, add bourbon, and stir. Garnish with a thin slice of lemon.
Bourbon tastes like…well, it’s not easy to describe. “Sweeter” and less smoky than Scotch. “Less sweet” and heavier than Canadian. Does that help?
Madeira is a fortified wine from an island off Portugal. Madeiras run the gamut from very dry to very sweet; you’ll want to use the dry, pale gold Sercial in your Cristi, rather than the rich dark sweet Malmsey.
Great to see you again, Chris! Your drink is not too powerful, so it won’t make you ralph
