The Fitzroy Cocktail

Methanol
Ginger Beer
1 Teaspoon of boot polish
This is an actual recipe.

[dnooman]

One night, when pretty drunk to begin with, I decided to try the only alcohol and only mixer in the house together. True, it was not an actual cocktail recipe. That ghastly concoction was Absolut Peppar and Coke. I nearly barfed.

[Savannah]

Rye whiskey and chocolate milk.

If you’ve already had a few drinks, you can convince yourself it’s sort of like Bailey’s. Or something.

Hey, I’m sure people have imbibed worse.

Another real one:

Poor Man’s Bloody Mary:

Scale ingredients to servings
4 oz beer
8 oz tomato juice
1 splash Tabasco® sauce
1 splash Worcestershire sauce
1 pinch salt
1 pinch peppers

Build over ice cubes in a large old-fashioned or lowball glass. Add beer last.

Or the Variation:

Mexican chabela

Drop the tomato juice, switch it with Clamato… yummy!

“The Bluedriver”

Blue Kool-Aid and Vodka. Proceed directly to toilet. (yes, i did this one at age 20 or so).

[Starving_Artist]

The Phillips Screwdriver

Vodka
Orange Juice
Phillips’ Milk of Magnesia

This drink is not really that bad, but it can make for a real barf-fest after about 6 or 8. I submit to to you, the TKO.

Equal parts of:

Tequila
Kahlua
Ouzo

Moving thread from IMHO to Cafe Society, though that last post almost made me throw it in The BBQ Pit.

Under the same circumstances, I ended up mixing myself Gin and Cream Soda. I have to say, I would rather have had the Peppar and Coke.

[Horatio_Hellpop]

Back in the early 80s, Penthouse had a contest to come up with horrible cocktail. The one I remember was the “Shit or Go Blind”: Wood alcohol and prune juice.

I believe you are sorely mistaken. If you have to try it in order to gt proof, I feel sorry for you.

My poor dead mother actually once drank Brasso (used to clean copper, brass and other shiny objects in the house) strained through two slices of white bread. And also, apparently two eyedroppers of car battery acid in milk and called it “White Lady”. Tragic, and possibly the worst cocktails ever thought of.

There is a comedian of some note (now gone to God also) who replied when asked “Do you like cocktails?” said “I love them - tell me some!”

I once, in the dark days of August 1990, spent a (very) long night in the mountains of North Carolina drinking an unnamed cocktail that consisted of:
[ul]
[li]1/3 Jolt Cola (remember Jolt Cola?)[/li][li]1/3 Captain Morgan’s Rum[/li][li]1/3 Robitussin cough syrup[/li][/ul]
The practice is not recommended.

[enigm4tic]

shot of vodka
splash of soy sauce

variably called “asian vodka” and “black death”

Are you sure that it’s not called the “Shit AND Go Blind”?

Wow, your Mom was hard core. Where I come from, it was always sterno filtered through cheesecloth!

I remember Jolt! I saved a bunch of the bottles and used them for homebrew beer! I think the drink you describe was called either a speedball (John Belushi RIP) or a Flaming Moe.

The Axis powers:

Equal parts of

Jaegermeister
Sake
White or Red Wine

Mix, drink, and expell.

[SmackFu]

Any beer + v-8 combo, like the one above, smells horrible, looks like it came out of a toilet, and is almost undrinkable.

Adding crystal lite doesn’t help.

It’s good to know someone tried, just in case.

You can still get it.
