Do you know any weird cocktail recipes?

[Arob]

I went to the Belli Lunch at the Drake yesterday and sampled some deliciously different drinks.

Basil Martini was the healthiest, and in my humble opinion, the best (free) beverage available. This blended martini was the signature cocktail of The Great Gatsby and also some other famous music club in Martha’s Vinyard or something – who cares, this is a great drink!

I put the recipe right on the photo using the Facebook application Blabble so you could try this one at home. It’s worth it.

Why doesn’t every bar have a drink like this? What’s your favourite exotic cocktail recipe? Got any pictures?

No pictures, but here's a little something we used to have made at our old stomping ground. It's called a "Lightsaber", cuz it tends to glow under the right kinds of bar lights.

It's pretty simple...equal thirds or Midori, Cocunt Rum and Pineapple Juice. One ice cube.

This isn't necessarily exotic, but it is fun, and I'm posting it anyway . . . So there. 🙂

The Peppermint Patty

Essentials: Peppermint Schnapps
Chocolate Sauce
A friend

Step 1. Coat your mouth lightly in chocolate sauce.

Step 2: Tilt your head back, and have a friend pour a shot of Schnapps in.

Step 3: Add a splash more chocolate sauce, and shake head to combine.


I suppose you could do it without the friend, but less fun.
