    Default Favorite Drink Recipes

    Based on a discussion in the Shoutbox today, it seems like a number of our members have recipes for "adult beverages" that others would like them to share. I thought I would start this thread so that those who were part of that discussion can post, and those who would like to contribute the delinquency of others can also share.

    I thought I would get the thread rolling with my recipe for Baja-style Margaritas - a recipe I learned on the beach in Baja many years ago...


    Baja-style Margaritas



    Equal parts of:
    • Lime juice (key lime juice tastes best)
    • Triple Sec
    • Tequila (Cuervo Gold is my favorite)
    1-3 Tablespoons of Honey (depending on your preference)

    Mix well in a blender and pour over ice in a salted rim glass

    The honey will tame the tartness of the lime juice and add a smooth texture. If you like your margaritas less tart, add more honey.

    There is a fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness."

    I've got one for you.

    At Don the Beachcomber near Hunington Beach, CA you can only order ONE of these per visit.

    Its called The Zombie

    1 oz dark Jamaican Rum
    2 oz gold Barbados Rum
    1 oz white Puerto Rican rum
    1/2 oz apricot Brandy
    3/4 oz papaya nectar
    3/4 oz unsweetend pineapple juice
    Juice of one large Lime
    Teaspoon of finely granulated sugar

    Dissolove sugar in lime juice, then shake everything well with cracked ice and pour in 14 oz frosted glass. Add 1 oz carbonated water and enough ice to fill the glass, then float a dash of 151 proof Emerara rum. Garnish with a mint sprig, pinapple cube screwered between one red and one green cocktail cherry, and powdered sugar sprinkled all over.

    This is a 70 year old recipe popular back when Tiki Bars were at their height in the 1950's. Maybe a bit over the top but the patrons really like them.

    Maybe not recommended for Diabetics!!

    Preparation -

    Boil 5 cups of water
    Stir in 5 cups of sugar, return to a foamy boil and stir

    Apple Pie in a Jar Drink Recipe - Allrecipes.com

    Some friends brought a bottle of this stuff to the bonfire party we attended this past weekend.
    It is excellent, but you have to watch how much you drink because it will sneak up on you
    It is made with Everclear or another grain alcohol.
    Everclear comes in 2 versions, 151 proof or 190 proof.
    Here in Michigan, we only have the 151 proof, the 190 is illegal evidently.
    I plan on making some this week for our Halloween party

    My favorite drink recipe as of late is the tequila & orange juice 50/50

    Basically take a glass

    Fill it half way with orange juice
    Then fill the remaining half glass with tequila

    For best results glass used should be at least 250 ml /8.5 ozs

    If anyone is interested, Crown Royal has a new whiskey out, maple flavored.
    We tried some last night, it's not really that good in my opinion.
    Very strong maple flavor...maybe too strong, like drinking some maple syrup.
    Try with caution, unless you are a big fan of maple, you might no like it.
