What to drink?

[luv]

Well, since I'm saving money by not getting gas to go to KC, I might as well splurge on something good to drink tonight. Any suggestions?

I'm not a tequila fan. Never tried gin or bourbon.

Any mixed drinks...please provide recipe.

I think I would have figured it out, but thanks for the clarification.

Never been to Hedonism, or Hedo II. By the sounds of it, I'm happy with that decision.

my (now ex) gf used to buy grey goose, then put it in cranberry.

and I'm only talking 1/3 vodka, weak shit.

made no sense to me, until I started stealing her grey goose and replacing it with mccormick.

30 ml vodka
30 ml Kahlua® coffee liqueur
30 ml Bailey's® Irish cream
60 ml cream
60 ml milk
1 banana
3 ice cubes
grated chocolate

Place all ingredients, except grated chocolate, in a blender and blend until smooth. Pour into glass and enjoy

Discovered these in Jamaica, Mr. FAX. Very tasty, indeed.

I've never heard of this, but it sounds great, Mr. Bowser. Kind of like a Russian thing, but with a Dairy Queen influence. We actually have all these ingredients, too. I'm going to try this. Many thanks.

Reminds me...Grey Goose and pink lemonade.

Pour a couple of drops of the olive juice into the martini as well.

My wife and Mother like a splash of olive juice. Me, not so much.

My pleasure, Mr. FAX. Let me know how they turn out.

Never say a gin Martini. A 'real' martini is always made with gin.

Try a mojito. They are simple. Just rum, simple syrup, mint and club soda.

Just bourbon, bitters, sugar, and soda, I think. Maybe a lemon twist, or something.

Hows the Manhattan faring these days? Loved, loved, loved those back in the day.

Speaking of fu-fu drinks, has anybody ever tried some flavored rum from Jamaica from World's End? We just happened to grab a couple of bottles at the duty free on the way out, and the stuff turned out great. Can't find anyone in the KC area that's even heard of the stuff.

Martini etiquette, I love it.

To be fair, he didn't post a recipe for a Martini, he posted cold gin.
And if you're making a Martini with Gin, slowly shake it, unlike Vodka, Gin will bruise.
