What are your favorites to make? What do other people want you to make all the time?

I'm terrible and I just bought like $200 worth of alcohol to mess around with, haha...

I don't know much about anything, mostly I just do shots of vodka, but I felt like having some fun, have some company coming over... ;p

Cuba Libre


2 oz Bacardi 8 anos ( dont use white rums )
Coca-Cola
Juice of ½ Lime

i know its a travesty using bacardi considering its called "cuba libre" but since you dont live ina free country you cant buy havana club. It simple to make yet tastes better than most vodka mixes no matter the fruit content and yet special enough to stand out and impress people.

fill with sweet and sour mix
1 1/2 oz rum
1 splash 7-Up® soda
1 1/2 oz vodka

For at home I usually go with simple longdrinks, mostly Gin Tonic (especially Hendricks tonic, which requires 2 slices of cucumber in it) or Vodka-Cranberry/Vodka-Passion Fruit for the ladies.

You would be my personal hero if you could do a kick-ass martini though.

Probably doesn't hit what you want but I'm more a beer guy than spirits (other than single malt of course Wink!).

Michelada

- Salt, for rimming the glasses
- 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lime juice, rinds reserved
- Ice
- 1 1/2 cups light Mexican beer, such as Corona
- 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
- 2 teaspoons hot sauce, such as Tabasco
- 1 teaspoon Maggi or soy sauce
- Freshly ground black pepper, for garnish

1. Place enough salt in a wide, shallow dish to cover the bottom. Rub the rims of two glasses with the reserved lime rinds and dip the glasses into the salt. Fill the glasses with ice and set aside.

2. Place the lime juice, beer, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, and Maggi or soy sauce in a pitcher and mix to combine. Pour into the prepared glasses, top with a few grinds of freshly ground black pepper, and serve.

with vodka you can make a caipiroska (caipirinha with vodka instead of cachaça), it's pretty simple...

this recipe is a good one (many others are very weird) and has a video.
http://www.absolutdrinks.com/en/drinks/absolut-caipiroska/

you don't need a lot of sugar, the key is to mix everything well after you add the ice (you can use a big glass, or maybe even a jar for that). A few mint leaves are a good addition too...

oh and strawberries, kiwis and other fruits work well too.

You American's need to start exploring elderflower. Try some gin, some elderflower, some apple juice and half a lime. Pour over crushed ice.

Flaming B-52's

(in 4cl Shotglass)

1/3 Kahlúa
1/3 Baleys Irish Cream
1/3 Grand Manier

a lighter, straws

first pour the Kahlúa in the shotglass (1/3rd) , then, using a coffeespoon, upside down, pour Baleys over the spoon into the glass, also 1/3rd. Clean spoon, then use it again to pour the Grand Manier over the spoon into the glass. The spoon prevents that the 3 liquids mix. Now you have 3 layers. Light it, use straw and drink in one swift go, while it burns.

No worse than a shot of a dirty mexican. It's tablespoon of mayonnaise and fill the rest of the shot glass with tequila.

To be fair, my love for Highland single malts is probably why I have a lack of taste when it comes to other drinks such as the cocktail above Wink!

I was going to add a picture of Laphroaig but really, it's so strong taste that I can only drink it in very small amounts. The strongest flavoured single malt made.

And I can't afford the really aged stuff you put up there. Heck, I can't afford 12-year old bowmore. No cheap liquor in Sweden. :/

The 12 year Acnoc is pretty cheap, in fact its one of the cheapest I drink. The Auchentoshan Three Wood is also pretty cheap, and not that bad a drink either.

I'm not a big fan of Islay, I drink it from time to time, I just finished a 21 year chill filtered Laphroaig that a friend of mine got me for Christmas a number of years ago.

I'm all out at the moment and have been for a while Sad.. I really need to get some new bottles but as you said, its not really cheap Wink!

Caesar

1 oz Vodka
Clamato juice
Worcestershire sauce
Tabasco sause
Salt and Pepper
Celery Salt.


Rim a glass with Celery Salt, then fill with ice.

Add Vodka and Clamato. Couple drops of Worcestershire, and Tabasco to taste. Dash of salt and pepper. Garnish with celery, pickled asparagus, pickled beans you name it.

Its a Canadian classic drink, and most of you will probably say WTF with Clamato Juice. LOL
