You will find the info here on the Narbonic boards.
My post is a few down.

From the link:

Well, I am a bartender and I think I have something for you.

I call it a “California Cosmopolitan”.

1.5oz Vodka (a citrus flavored vodka is good)

1oz Triple sec (or Cointreau if you want to be fancy, I don’t know how it will effect the color)

.5oz of lime juice (Roses is ok)

Fill with ruby red grapefruit juice.

Add lime garnish

You can fiddle with the ratios all you want. The most important thing is to use ruby red grapefruit juice instead of cranberry juice (as is used in a regular cosmo).

Why this drink would be great is that it is exactly the same color as “Narbonic Pink”.

It is also mighty tasty.

I have been serving it for the past few nights and folks seem to really like it. I would be honored if you used it.

I believe we had something similar called a Sea Breeze:

Well, close anyway :slight_smile:

Since it has the ruby red grapefruit juice, and it’s pink I’m thinking something along the “Squirt” lines:

Love Squirt

Nipple Squirt

Pink Squirt

or maybe just

a Pink?

how about RUBY SUNSHINE?

It needs the allure of danger: CRANIAL HEMORRAGE!

EGYPTIAN NOSE BLEED « « lol. :eek:

CRANIUM BICARBONATE « « Sounds Scientific!

PINK ELEPHANT « « okay, so i’m getting ridiculus… but so are

« VODKA MEN STRAIGHT » :dubious:

…and the following name I have on reserve, I haven’t created the drink yet, which MUST use tabasco sause… MARTIAN WINTER. Yes, I know “summer” sounds better, but i like the oxymoron implications. :wally So I guess U could use

« MARTIAN SPRING » :confused:

My brother held a blasphemy party last Easter, and in honor of blasphemy, I brought a six-pack of Zima and a bottle of pink wine.

In case that wasn’t blasphemous enough, I labeled the Zima “The Saliva of Christ” and the pink wine “The Saliva of Christ when he flosses for the first time in a year.”

Maybe you could do something with that theme?

  • Ruby Sipper(s) (think Dorothy)
  • Three Alive (you know, instead of Five Alive, what with the orange, grapefruit and lime… all right, that’s lame)

Wait, I know! You say it’s pink, right? How about: Visible Pink Unicorn?

Raelian Ruby.

Oooh, I kinda like Raelian Ruby.

These have been great so far, but remember that there are some specifications though.

Squeeee!!! I won!

Back to the name: there is already a tradition of vodka/grapefruit juice drinks being named after dogs. Vodka and grapefruit juice is a greyhound; add salt to the rim of the glass and it’s a salty dog. How about a Cosmic Dog?

skutir, I was thinking “Dogstar.”

Free-associating on “pink.” (Don’t ask how. It’s nerdy.) Didn’t make the vodka/grapefruit juice connection.

Nipple Twist?
