Mind Eraser: Get a rocks glass, fill it with ice. Pour in a layer of Kahlua, topped with a layer of vodka, topped with a splash of club soda. Drink with a straw so you get the Kahlua first, then the vodka, then the club. This is a shooter, not a sipper–it’s highly amusing to see people pounding a drink through a straw. If you get brain freeze, stick your tongue to the roof of your mouth.
We can’t have tequila in our site. One of our campers has “issues” with tequila, and considering his other (serious) metal health issues, we’d rather skip it. He and tequila do NOT mix, and he’s like a 3 year old - if he knows it’s there hell won’t stop him from finding it.
And you people are coming up with some GREAT suggestions! I like Long Island Iced Teas, maybe we’ll have to do some of those (plus variations)
freekalette - that Passion Colada sounds very nom nom too. Alcoholic Push-Pops. Whee!
This was introduced to me as Porch Climber, but others have recognized the recipe under different names. This makes an easy batch to keep you going for a while and is easy to whip up more. Do not make this ahead of time, as the beer needs to be fizzy.
1 can frozen pink lemonade
1 can vodka (or favourite liquor)
1 can water
2 beers
Nuts and Berries is a common shot at our house, though if we put dairy in it it’s half & half, not milk (we also use half & half for White Russians rather than milk. Milk is too watery). Sometimes we just do the Chambord and Frangelico though by itself. It’s good either way.
The sour mix is the real non-alcholic ingredient, accounting for about 20% of the overall content of a long island. Replacing the coke really won’t affect the content since it’s just a tiny splash anyway.
I may be embarrased drinking this but it sounds so wonderfull I’m going to have to make a large batch at my next house party.
Since your “camping” I’ll suggest my favorite camping recipe;
4 parts hot chocolate
1 part peppermint schnapps preferably 100 proof
Mix it in one of those insulated 5 gallon dispensers and it will keep you warm on the coolest of nights.
My favorite drink is a rusty nail—equal parts drambuie and scotch. If you’re looking to get happy, this drink has no mixer to dilute the alcohol.
On a summer evening, the only cocktail you need is a tall cool gin and tonic
You can even tell yourself you’re warding off malaria with the quinine.
Not too long ago, my husband was in a band called the Whiskey Crickets – it was an offshoot of his regular band, made up pf bluegrass and drinking and punk rock. Of course, one of the first orders of business for the band was to invent a drink calle the Whiskey Cricket, and while I was not present for its conception (I’ve heard it was horrible), I know that it is well-loved:
Just as a side note: thus far, everyone who has tried it and is also be-penised has loved the drink; those of us who are blessed with vaginas are also aware that the drink is totally grody. Thus, drink at your own risk.
Whiskey Cricket
1/3 Whiskey
1/3 Midori
1/3 Root Beer
Plus, add some more stuff if you have it nearby – orange soda, etc. – my husband is sure that this is not the full recipe but cannot remember the whole thing. Good Luck.
My random banned drink contribution:
Cutesily named by one friend: The Pink Elephant, and also known as “The He Can’t Serve These Any More to People Without Telling them Another Name for it” Drink by my other Friends.
-
Take a glass cup (of regular drinking glass size, nothing fancy. Just a 12 oz. glass cup).
-
Coat the walls in Grenadine: ie pour a good amount into the bottom, and swirl it around until the Glass looks red all over (This is great fun if you’ve already HAD a few of these).
-
Pour equal parts Lime Flavored Gin and Orange Juice. Or to taste. (But usually about 6oz Gin, 6oz OJ for a 12 oz Cup is what we’re looking at)
-
Add Ice Cubes, stir a bit, and Enjoy!
My own little version of Gin and Juice- if its mixed well and has a healthy pink color, it should just end up tasting like Grapefruit Juice.
And then the more drink of it, the more you start to agree.
Tis def. a Barstool Drink. Or a “gee, he’s puking on the floor” Drink.
Ah… College. Caveat Emptor!
Vodka, grapefruit juice and a splash of Red Bull. I had one this weekend. The Red Bull actually adds flavor.
Ooh, grape vodka and Red Bull also makes an excellent drink.
Get a couple bottles of Limoncello and call it a weekend.
That stuff will sneak up behind you and then…BLAM…
