New, or different, (alcoholic) drinks

There was a similar thread a while back, and ivylass suggested Chambord and Frangelico, with milk. Kinda like a White Russian.
It sounded pretty good and I tried one. Very tasty indeed.

For some ungodly reason a new drink popped up at the bar I usually visit. They’ve christened it “rockshit”. You take a dirty Jager bomb (for the non alcoholics Jagermeister and redbull mixed together) and drop shot a shot of Bacardi 151. Its surprisingly not horrible.

Can you tell I live in a College town?

A bottle of Bawls, a healthy shot of gin, and some grenadine. The Bawls kills the nasty alcohol flavor of the gin, while letting the botanicals shine through in a pleasant manner.

Well, in my case, I just call it an Italian Soda, because that’s all that it is, except with Schnapps in place of flavored syrup. I just started making it that way in college because I figured out that schnapps was cheaper than flavored syrup.

Flander and I have come up with a couple of good drink mixes lately. The first one was during the first FL hurricane. It is watermelon vodka with cherry limeaid. Flander coined it “The Pink Bunny.” It is a very yummy, but dangerous drink.

More recently we decided to mix vanilla vodka (preferably Absolute) with a new juice we found, white cranberry peach juice. It tastes just like peaches and cream. :smiley: Name still pending.

In another life – the one called college – my friends had a theme-drink party. The idea was to come up with a drink based on an FRP that they played. Tropical planet, drink called Kong, said to be awful. We had to come up with the drink.

IIRC it started with gin (the definition of awful IMHO), rootbeer, chocolate syrup, and pineapple chunks. Blended and poured into a tall glass, served with a partially peeled banana sticking out of the glass. If you were adventurous, you could string a pair of kiwi fruit around the banana in a phallic representation.

It was awful. Dreadful. I had three.

Well, that was sophomore year and I was asked to go home for a year at the completion.

There were other parties, but none focused on such a dreadful drink.

Gotta hand it to ya, xiao_wenti, that sounds like the drink mentioned here that I’d least care to sample.

I’m assuming everyone is familiar with the Dewdriver. I first encountered it in 1986 and it probably wasn’t new then.

This is not too dissimilar to something I thought up in college called the Quik Fix (Nestle’s Quik stirred with a dash of milk + vodka + seltzer water). My more culturally refined friends promptly rechristened it Long Island Egg Cream.

There is one my friends seem to have invented. Some people actually drink it, but I wouldn’t touch the stuff.

It’s called a Screaming Demon. 2 parts vodka, 1 part green creme de menthe. It even has its own tagline - looks like Scope, tastes like Scope, kills germs three times better than Scope.

Right up there with the Flaming Moe and the Pan-Galactic Gargle Blaster.

And throw in a bottle of Elsinor for good measure.

On the side, of course.

Also, be sure to get all your thoughts out at once and avoid the oh so gauche double post.

I invented a drink for Sunday Brunch a while back.

2 shots Polish vodka
2 oz. pineapple juice
2 oz. grapefruit juice
3 oz. orange juice
.5 oz. grenadine

The wife said it was Polish and fruity, so we gave it a very un-PC name. :smiley:

You called it a Liberace?

I don’t know if this is a well known drink or not – I didn’t make it up, but I’ve only found it at one bar. For people who like “pretty” drinks. This one is dark blue around the bottom rim of the glass, then emerald green the rest of the way up.

Factory Blue Balls

1 shot Blue Curacao
1 shot Vodka
Red Bull

Fill a medium-sized drink glass w/ ice. Blue Curacao goes in first, followed by the Vodka, then fill the glass with the Red Bull. Tastes just like jello!

Bartender checking in.

It’s awful close to a boilermaker, 'cept a boilermaker uses beer and a lager. There are variations to theme of the boilermaker (a shot of liquor in a beer), but none of them have names that I know of. Corona and Tequila may be the most popular.

Uncommon ones I use or have invented:

The Racoon: In a blender, add 1 part each of brandy, amaretto, and kahlua, 3 parts vanilla ice cream, chocolate syrup to taste, and a bit of ice to thicken it up. Blend/crush ice and top with whip cream and a cherry. It’s a chocolate milkshake with a kick. The women love it.

The bunny rabbit: I actually invented this one, and it’s another “chick drink”. 3 parts coconut rum, 2 parts pineapple juice, 1 part triple sec, splash of grenadine. Warning: only for those with an extreme sweet tooth. Pretty good at first, but drink too many of those and you’ll wake up the next morning with diabetes.

Last and least.

The cement mixer: Some of you may know this one already as it is better described as “infamous” than “uncommon”. If the bartender asks if he can buy you a cement mixer, he’s not being nice, it means that he really, really doesn’t like you. To make it, add equal parts Baileys Irish Cream and lime juice to a shot glass. Wait about 20 seconds for the Baileys to curdle (and it will). Then enjoy!

I used to work at the restaurant part of a club. After food service was over for the night I would punch out and head for the bar. If I was particularly wrung out I would order an Attitude Adjustment.

The bartender picks up four bottles of clear liquor (80 to ? proof) at once and pours a shot of each then four more and then four forty-proof fruit liqueurs and then four more of anything else tasty and forty-proof around and then shoots it with his bar gun with every fruit mixer he has.

As you may have surmised it’s big and strong, but goes down amazingly quick and smooth.

The other thing it does is live up to it’s name. I never needed a second one.

Gah. Make that “whiskey and a lager”.

Sixteen shots? How much did that monstrosity cost?

Peppermint schnapps in cocoa. We use to call it “I don’t want kiddie cocoa.”
