Try a Long Island Ice Tea.

Might as well get started on the hard stuff. Bout $25 as well.

Or a good starter is a cosmopolitan. They are wicked cocktail drinks.;D

BuzsteR
13-Aug-03, 10:14am
is that the drink with pineapple n' otehr stuff inside a fairly big glass?

NudeNut
13-Aug-03, 10:20am
Not too sure. I always get it in those shaker things you pour the shouts out off, so I can just shoot it all down.

Will have to check that for you though8-)

Long island ice tea is like 6-7 shots topped off with coke. Tasty!

Plenty of good cocktails at Sugar tonight so you should be spoiled for choice ;D

Long Island Ice tea's are great.

Had one in Minkanos that was a brittish pint size filled to about 1cm from the brim with any white spirit they could find and then then just dashed with a tinny amount of coke for colour. ;D

Had about 4 or 5 of them and fuck was I smashed. Great fun from what I can remember.:?

13-Aug-03, 11:25am
Mmmm long island iced tea! I think they are 1 shot each of malibu, gin, vodka, rum and triple sec with a dash of coke for colour and a slice of lemon ;)
I drank 5 of them in about half an hour once and that was enough to get even me thinking about passing out in a quiet alleyway ;D

Buz ya can't go past Jacks and Coke for a regular drink though...

Its a shame you dont want a heads up on a few wines, I could really give you a list of the go at the mo...

On the cocktail front, I would be inclined to go with Grasshoppers, or Black russians, pretty simple...

From memory (which is hazy at the best of times) a Grasshopper: creme de menthe, spash o vodka an creme.

Black russian: kahlua, vodka and coke.

That sounds DEATHLY, Pappy!!!
On my 18th birthday I went to Fumo Blu and had a long island iced tea. The buggers at the bar were told it was my birthday an DOUBLED everything in the drink! It came out in a MASSIVE goblet balloon, it Icould only sip it, as it was that fiery! The only drink I had that birthday, bar a Toblerone from there (mmmm baileys!)... And I was terribly GONE that night.

From Tapas there's things called Airforce Rangers... They Rock!

A drink a friend of mine and I made once. Called a Slimy Swamp.
1 Shot Midori
2 Shots Vodka
Half a Lemon Ruskie
1 Shot contrieu
Soda Water...to taste
Few drops Lemon Juice
If you want it sweeter, add lemonade.
The resulting colour is interesting, hence the name Slimy Swamp.

Wipe all the spilt alcohol from the bar
Squeezed it into a shot glass

See if they'll do a Magnum Meltdown at Tapas. You have to supply the Magnum Icecream though.

I second the fruit tingle for taste, and the long island iced tea for up-fuckedness. Also, Illusions aren't bad. Mmmmm, fruity. Hey Caitlin, you remember the fruit tingles shots at soda room.... actually you probably don't for some reason ;)

muffins
13-Aug-03, 12:26pm
If its shots ya after it has to be cuervo tequila all the way, and fuck that salt and lemon shit.
mmmmmmmmmmm ;)

But buz, I don't wanna sound all preachy but do yaself a favour and don't go TOO hard on the piss now ;) I've spoilt too many of my own special occasions by going out with the attitude 'yeah, I'm gonna get MAGGOT tonight haha' only to find myself being greeted by yet another cold grey sunrise filtering its way down hindley street to the gutter where I'm lying in a pool of my own vomit...

Well maybe thats a slight exaggeration but a glass of water every couple of drinks'll do wonders for the next morning ;)

Fruit Tingle is def the way to go........... so goddamn yummy! Easy to drink. Oh, by the way Happy Birthday!!

hehe *weg* it is!! its a drink a mate (formely managed at the Tandoori Oven and some other work mates of his) designed. it's supposed to be the 'Drink of Tandoori' so to speak.
lets just say it absolutely F$%S u up and leaves a trail of burning sensations all the way down to ur stomach for around 15 mins. on top of that the drink just doesnt sit well all nite!! i will never have one again!! didnt taste too bad tho....just couldnt handle the after effects which last all god damn nite!!

I remember them Joel...it's AFTERWARDS I don't remember much of!

Another good drink... um... All of em? Nah joking. I don't actually like the majority of alcoholic drinks (Except premixes, and some of them are DISGUSTING as well) so I just find whatever's good and stick with it.
Go the Bundy and Coke! :-D

My favs:

Try the Apple Archers - just like Granny Smith Apples! :)

Malibu and Lemonade - hmmm, coconut fizzy goodness! :P

Vodka and Pineapple juice - just refreshing and you know what they say about pineapple juice ;)

13-Aug-03, 03:03pm
well one of my favourite made up cocktails is a "shnapps fammily reunion".

How you make it:

Put in blender about a cup of semi frozen pineapple peices
If the pineapple is not semi frozen use ice to substitue
6 large mint leaves
30 ml of decent vodka
30ml pineapple shnapps
30ml apple snhapps
30ml peach shnapps

(you can pretty much use any flavour snapps except butterscotch)

dash of lemon or pineapple juice

blend

Find your self a nice big glass
garnish with a mint leaf
and someone to chat up while you drink
and enjoy

Try this for something sweet

Take 1 tall glass with ice
+1 shot of vodka
+1 shot of raspberry cordial
and fill the rest of the glass with coke!!

Goes down easy!! :blush: :p

Yeah, Frint Tingles are pretty damn smooth!!! Blue Lagoons are not bad either (basically a Fruit Tingle without the raspberry cordial ....I think!!?) If you are talking cocktails then Fluffy Ducks can be a go if you like something sweet. Don't mind a Margarita or a Black Russian either.

At the end of the day though, nothing beats a nice Scotch!!!

i cbf reading it all so if have repeated something sorry.

buz i reccon when out you'd like midori and lemonade, or even go for illusions, or try cruzers or breezers (flavoured vodka) or vodka and orange, or for the energy vodka and redbull.... you'll be happy on vodka me thinks ;D or even lemon lime and bitters.

ummm tequilla sunrise are nice ( 2 shots tequila,2 shots grenadine, orange juice, ice cubes )

Pina colada: (1 1/4 shot Rum, Splash of coconut milk, splash of Pineapple Juice. )

OR we could get fancy and say... hmmmm
1 shot Disaronno Amaretto
1 shot Stolichnaya vodka
3 shots Cranberry juice
2 shots Orange juice
garnish with lime squeeze
(cranberry cooler, mmmmm)

or

2 shots Aged rum
1/2 shot De Kuyper Orange Curaçao
1 shot Freshly squeezed lime juice
1/2 shot Orgeat (Almond) syrup
1/4 shot Sugar syrup
and garnish with Lime wedge with fresh mint
(Mai Tai mmmmmmmmmm)

i can go on forever :P


these are all fruity cocktails... i like fruity cocktails, not full on heavy thick milky ones, so only know how to make em fruity XD

hahahahaha!! **lightbulb flashes** im buying you a flaming lambogini ;)

Apple archers are dope!! I've swapped my peach schnapps obsession for apple now. btw a word of advice, stay away from strawberry schnapps, its just WRONG!! :meh:

also malibu and pineapple juice rawks.
If ya goin for shooters yall should try kamikazes, vodka, lime juice and triple sec, mmmmm mmmmmmm so smooth too!
For hella laydees drinks try Flirtinis coz they taste like lollies, ya know, the kind that actually taste yum ;)
If yer just drinkin to get drunk and ya dont like beer then go JD's and coke. Jack is the man

I can recall consuming a number of these one new years eve. My last one was in a plastic cup, half kahlua, half blue label smirnoff and about a shot of coke. I didn't mix it myself, but my friend hands it to me and i sculled it down in one go. I was talking to my friend on my mobile and the conversation went as follows:

"Wicked, another drink"
*gulp*
"Oooh, spicy. Hold on sec"
*vomits profusely all over the driveway*
"Thats better, now what were we talking about.."

Ah, memories (or lack thereof ;))

As for absinthe, I've got a bottle in my cupboard I bought in spain, that is some potent stuff. You don't really drink it, it mostly evaporates in your mouth and is inhaled through the sinuses. Love it.

The Mango Daquari. From memory:

I'm not sure on the quantities.

Fresh blended mangos; or tinned equivalent. Always better to use fresh (as with most things)

Bacardi Rum
Vodka
Contreau
Crushed Ice

All blended until smooth and creamy and served in a nice round glass, pool side in the summer time. These puppies can get you pretty mashed and you don't even realise until your third one when a freight train collides with your brain side on.
