I’m suprised the coke doesn’t curdle the irish cream.
:smack:
I meant to add, one time, my friends and I made this drink:
Irish Cream
Lemon Juice
It was in shot form, and…well…yeah, the crema curdled. It’s like a cement mixer (lime juice + irish cream), but we had no lime juice, just lemon juice, and you don’t swish it to purposly get it curdled, it just happens so fats it can’t be stopped.
It’s called a jugdish.
I’m a teetotaler, and I don’t spend much time in bars or around drinkers, either. On vacation, my boyfriend asked me to mix him up a drink. I reminded him that, while I know just about everything there is to know (:p), I know DIDDILY SQUAT about alcoholic beverages. I think that only made him curious, and he insisted.
So I moseyed on over to the drink table, slugged in a little of this, little of that, some of this, some of that, some soda I think? Maybe not. When I brought the concoction back, the resident bartender grumpily pointed out that I hadn’t stirred the stuff at all, but I just shrugged.
After sips and sniffs of the drink all around, we came to the conclusion that it was exactly like kid’s cough syrup. It turns out I’d chosen the most low-alcohol stuff at the bar, heavy on the mint schnapps and vanilla rum. Ooopsie.
It’s not like I couldn’t read the labels and think about the combination of vanilla + mint, but deep down I wanted to make my boyfriend never want to ask me to do that again.
I tried Vodka in Mars chocolate milk, not great but my wee sister liked it (presumably because it contained alcohol at all fullstop 
)
Not being American, I’ve always been curious as to what is in yoo-hoo.
Is it flavoured milk, or what?
It’s chocolate flavored whey with some non-fat dried milk and corn-syrup added in for more body and sweetness. It’s essentially a thinner, lower-fat alternative to chocolate milk.
Make cholocate milk with skim milk, add water. Viola, Yoo-hoo. Kids love that crap though, as did I before I knew better. If you want chocolate and booze may I suggest Godiva Liquor?
I’ll give approval for this also. Amaretto is good with Cherry Coke too. I also like Amaretto straight, but that’s neither here nor there.
I used to like cherry flavored brandy and coke. But one time I used actual cherry brandy instead of cherry flavored brandy. You wouldn’t think it’d make a difference, but if did and the result was bad.
Long Island Egg Cream
In a large tumbler, combine 1/4 cup whole milk or half-and-half and 2-3 tablespoons tangy chocolate syrup (U-Bet or da Vinci Sugar Free work best; avoid anything like Hershey’s that tastes sweet right out of the container). Stir till nicely brown. Add well chilled vodka, rum or your favorite white goods to taste. Fill with equally well chilled soda water (making sure to “slide” it past the tablespoon into the glass to prevent overfoaming).
Uncle Vanya:
Take vodka, chilled overnight in the freezer, and frozen licorice stick with the ends cut off; imbibe vodka through licorice straw. That’s about as mixed as my drinks get.
In college, a friend was doing some “pre party” drinking. Well, he got hungry, so whipped up a batch of cream of mushroom soup. Being a normal, college-going bachelor, he decided that a bowl required too much work, so he poured the soup into one of those large plastic cups from McDonalds that normal, college-going bachelors accumulate.
There was room left over in the cup after adding the soup. So he grabbed a bottle of vodka and topped it off.
I swear it was one of the more repellent looking concoctions I’ve ever been present to see. But he (probably under the influence of the vodka already in his system) proceeded to drink the mushroomy, curdled “goodness”. To his credit, he finished it off. Later that evening, however…
:insert pukey smiley here:
Light that on fire, and you’ve got a Flaming Moe (Simpson’s reference, in case you wondered).
This all reminds me of a network special that David Letterman did many years ago. I can’t even remember what the segment was about, but it had something to do with cheap substitutes for tropical drinks. The suggestions: a) Vodka and Tang, b) Gin and Scope (yecch!)
Do not mix ANYTHING with beer. I repeat. Do Not. Mix Anything. With Beer.
Want to create something that smells and tastes exactly like vomit? Mix beer with Watermelon Pucker.
If you have margarita mix, and no alcohol, do not use beer instead. Beer margaritas were created by Satan himself.
Clearly, you’ve never had a Hymenaide. Recipe available upon request.
Geez, now I feel really sick!
I had a couple of bottles left over from a little get together I had some time ago. Besides the beer, mixers, sodas, and alcs, I had some various Kid Type Stuff around because I had seen some of my friends drinking the stuff. Hence the Yoohoo, along with Red Bull, some flavoured teas, etc…
No one drank the Yoohoo. I had very little at all left over, in fact, except for the Yoohoo. It sat, unloved and unloveable in the back of my fridge for lo these many months.
Apparantly it can’t go bad. Since it’s HORRIBLE to begin with. But, I couldn’t bring myself to throw it away. I had to try something. Should’ve thrown it away.
At least I got a pretty neat thread out of it. Y’all’s drink combos are weird, man!
I’m taking it that you are not fond of my Knock You Naked Margaritas then. I would say that this upset me, but that just leaves more for me. 
Knock You Naked Margaritas
1 12oz. can of frozen Limeaid
1 12oz. Corona
1 12oz. can of 7UP
12oz. tequila
Mix in a large pitcher and pour over ice.
Go ahead, try it. It is surprisingly good.

raz said not to mix anything with BEER. That recipe calls for Corona. I see no conflict.
Isn’t there a European concoction that combines beer and lemonade? No…beer and Sprite?
Beer and whiskey. A devine dilution of whiskey, and fortification of beer! Good when you just add a wee drop <ahem… bigger please>
In a big mug, with the whiskey in a shot glass, drop in (glass and all), and it’s called a boilermaker. 
Drink quickly, as it foams, and that’s the whole point of the boilermaker.
Our standard drink at the Butler household is what we call a “Mo’s cocktail”. It’s pretty much a cosmopolitan, but with a slight variation.
4 Parts citrus flavored Vodka
1 Part raspberry liquor (Chambord works in a pinch, but we like the better raspberry liquors)
1 Part fresh lime juice.
Shake with ice, and pour into a chilled martini glass.
Drink with caution, it’s pretty much a glass of rocket fuel.
Other drinks that are good:
Burbon & Lemonade
Burbon & Root Beer
Burbon on ice.
Burbon from a bottle.
Burbon around a fire.
Burbon back at hunting camp, after hiking and hunting all day.
