Have you ever "invented" a drink?

One time a buddy and I had some bourbon and nothing to mix it in but Tang (the drink the astronauts took to the Moon). We decided that if vodka and OJ is a Screwdriver then Bourbon and Tang is a Crowbar.

I'm sort of partial to Tequila and Ruby Red Grapefruit Juice - as far as I know it doesn't have a name. I'm thinking Cold Chisel might be a good name for it, or maybe Tequila Sunset.
I used to recruit for the NRA until they sold us down the river (again!) in Heller v. DC. See my auctions (if any) under username henryreilly

    I once filled a glass from the kitchen faucet and proclaimed it to be water. Now you all know and you're welcome.

    I think so, but who knows if it is out there as something else.

    Get a jigger, or small tumbler. Pour in a couple shots of quality vodka, then pour in a shot of Bailey's Irish Cream....let it float in there and don't mix it up.

    I call it a "snot-ball" cause that is what it looks like with the Bailey's floating around in the Vodka.

    Toss it down, tastes great.

    One of my many talents is bartending. I became famous for my signature drink, the secret recipe for which I divulge here for the first time:

    PUKING WHITE SNAKE

    2 oz Vodka, 100 proof (use a good brand)
    3/4 oz Drambuie scotch liquor
    3/4 oz Cointreau liquor
    3 oz heavy cream
    2 drops (no more!) Angostera Bitters
    1 tip-of-a-toothpick-full of cardamom
    (note: this is only a very tiny hint of cardamom)

    Shake vigorously for 45 seconds in an ice-filled
    martini shaker. Strain into an 8 or 10 ounce,
    wide Margarita glass rimmed with red granulated
    or red rock sugar.

    Garnish with a small lime wedge, a small
    orange wedge, three or four drops of grenadine syrup
    (no more!) and a foil-wrapped condom glued onto
    a small plastic stir stick.

    EDIT:
    If you don't have heavy cream, you can substitute about half-a-cup of vanilla icecream. I have also made this drink with a couple ounces of orange sherbet and a couple ounces of vanilla ice cream. Just shake it about another thirty seconds or so and make sure the icecream ahs sort of liquified, then strain.

    Here's another one of my famous drinks. This one's for all you people who have "friends" over who never bring anything and head straight for your best booze. This is more of a college dorm or an animal house drink. It actually ain't bad. I never had anyone complain, anyway.

    EL PUNCHO DE POQUITO PESOS

    Tang, mixed as per directions.
    Inexpensive tequila (do not buy no-name grocery-store or drug store brand tequila)

    Mix three parts TANG to one part TEQUILA in a large punch bowl. Set the punch bowl in a tub of ice so the ice comes up nearly to the top of the punch bowl. Have plenty of ice handy for people who like rocks. You may need more than one punch bowl.

    Both of my girls are home for the summer so I decided to try this one out. We had to make a few slight modifications to your drink: There was no heavy cream in the house so we had to use half and half (Mrs K. will be missing that in her coffee in the morning [:0]) and we had to use ginger in place of cardamom. The verdict: The girls like their drinks but I doubt that I'll ever have another one. Daughter #1 insisted on the condom on the stir stick to make the drink authentic but my younger girl just blushed [:I].

    Yep, on graduation trip. Everybody wanted a "hurricane", so we came up with the "hurricanadoe". Whiskey, beer, rum, and Boones Farm.
    The next morning, nobody wanted another!!![;)]

    I came up with something called the "Abschied K?ss" (goodbye kiss) when I was at German summer school in Oregon. 7/11 cherry slurpie (big bladder buster size) and half a cup of vanilla rum. Stir in a bowl, serve in margarihta glasses.

    Ok, so it is just spiked slurpee but it was good on a hot day if sickingly sweet.

    My ex once mixed the contents of the glasses left on the quarters table after a party, cigarette butts included, and drank it for $5.

    Something should have told me at that point he was not the brightest crayon in the box.....
