Last night I mixed a drink that was one part vanilla rum, one part Kahlua, two parts orange juice and a splash of cream.  
If I was to order this in a bar would I have to explain what I wanted, or does the drink have a name? I think this may be my favorite drink ever.

Try igniting it. You might have a Flaming Dervish.

(or mixing it, for a whirling dervish, but that’s not as funny)

According to my BarBack software (5,000 drink recipes 😃 )  
You are very close to:

Wait for it

Ready?

**SCREAMING MULTIPLE ORGASM**

25 ml. Rum  
25 ml. Irish Cream  
25 ml. Amaretto  
25 ml. Kahlua®  
50 ml. Cream  
50 ml. Orange Juice

Pour all the measures into a cocktail shaker shake vigourously and pour into a tall coctail glass.  
Top with Sugar strands and serve with 2 straws."  
So you do appear to have a new drink, a continuous orgasm perhaps?

Sometimes I drink coffee with my breakfast.  
Sometimes I drink OJ.  
Usually, I put milk in my cereal.

Never in a million years would I have thought to mix them all and add alcohol.

You’re either a genius, or insane. I’m afraid to find out which.

We do vanilla vodka, OJ, and cream. We call it an “Oh Julius.” It has yet to catch on. But yours sounds very similar. I don’t think you can use our name with your kahlua though. I get this latte with orange zest and chocolate in it, called . . . dang, I’ll remember tomorrow.

Thanks everyone!  
**Rick** I definitely think this drink is some kind of orgasm. I found a recipe for “Screaming White Orgasm” which is

3 cl Bailey’s® Irish cream  
2 cl coffee liqueur  
2 cl white rum  
1 dash Cointreau® orange liqueur  
1 dash cold milk  
ice

The only problem is that I liked the orange _juice_, not the liqueur; it would taste too alchoholic otherwise.

Oh, and **Electronic Chaos** , I am completely insane.
