Athol Brose is already a cocktail, of a fashion - a mix of oatmeal, honey, whisky and cream

Yes, I thought I knew that name!

Gold Dust Rush: 1/2 shot of Goldschlager + 1/2 shot of Wild Turkey’s American Honey + 1 Can of Ginger Ale. Sprinkle with cocaine and serve.

Pearly Dewdrops Drops: Bailey's + Pastis on the rocks.

Blind Dumb Deaf: 2 shots of Everclear + Grapefruit juice, served through a funnel.

Are there any other groups whose songs are so perfectly suited for this? I'm drawing a blank.

Maybe Beefheart.

was hoping somebody would submit a recipe for a "Quisquose"

sleeve, Friday, 8 July 2011 20:54 (thirteen years ago) link

There was one: Vodka, Campari splash, Orange syrup, soda and vanilla ice cream

LeRooLeRoo, Friday, 8 July 2011 23:16 (thirteen years ago) link

oh sorry I meant "I was glad someone submitted etc."

my version of a Blood Bitch would be an all-the fixin's Bloody Mary with extra heat and a splash of 151.

sleeve, Friday, 8 July 2011 23:24 (thirteen years ago) link

i laughed at the original post, but i was totally thinking blood bitch needed to be a real recipe. and that if it was bloody mary-esque that would be ok. my version would probably be exactly the same as above, + a single drop of blood, and 2 panadols on the side. oh, and infuse the 151 with high grade hydroponic!

This thread is one of the reasons I love ILM. Where else would you find something like this? It just put a huge smile on my face.
