Violent, Bloody, Healthy???


I am only doing the easy version of the Bloody Mary. Already a great fan of V8, the Hot & Spicy version cheers me up everyday and gives me fibre I need. The product gotta be promoted for your health's sake!!!!!

My advice is, if you drink V8 Hot and Spicy, don't put it on ice...just get it chilled in the fridge. But if you do it for cocktail, surely you need ice to help dilute the drink....

For V8 Hot and Spicy already has % of sodium, I see no point to put celery salt on top of the drink except for decoration's sake. (I sometimes think, if for the aesthetic reason, I would use grounded black pepper instead)

Should I call this Bloody Mary is Gothic drink??? (sorry, just finished reading Carmilla, can't help being dark and grotesque)
Recipe:
Vodka 1 part
V8 Hot & Spicy 6part

Asking for freedom? Cuba Libre


As you can see, the drink was done in day time.

The reason to pick this drink for trilal is that, I just watched Olympic Games, Women's Volley Ball, Cuba vs Poland online. It was not live but........frankly, I think the Cuba team did much better a few years ago. Their teammanship didn't impress me as much as the Poland team. So, wanna cheer them up in my own way, wanna see them shine in the Olympics!

Receipe

White Rum 1 part
Coca Cola (Sorry, I don't drink Pepsi) 3 part
Lime Juice a squeeze

***Stir 6-8 times. Garnish with a wedge of lime.***
I do like to see you people fight!!!!!!!!

New glasses

I'm happy to know that this weekend I'll be able to get some new glasses in different shapes. Hurrah!!! I will surely get those in queer shapes in my budgets. Just took a look at the following website, well, I think they're ok, but still you have to touch the glass and see if you like the actual thing.

Californian, am I not?


Again it's a simple drink I make. I can make, so can you. The title of this drink makes me medidate about my status as a California. It is more than 10 years that I live in California, but still I don't feel like belonging here. Anyway, here you go, Californian
Receipe:

Vodka 1 part
Orange Juice 2 part
Grapefruit Juice 2 part


**Stir for 6-8 times**

For this drink, I used my beloved Pink Vodka. Any objection? For me, sometimes I pour the alcohol after the OJ. I don't like to have the vodka sinking at the bottom (though stir will be made)

Electric Popsicle


Receipe:
Midori 1 part
Blue Curacao 1 part
Lemon-Lime Soda 3 part

***Build on Ice***

In fact I have pour the Midori first , then the Blue Curacao, then the soda. But look! The blue color is at the bottom, then the green, then the trasparency. It possibly means the Blue Caracao has more sugar in it, so then the density is higher. Thank you my science teacher in high school.
