Houlihan's is selling summer cocktails in testicular cancer jars now.

so is Logan's Roadhouse.

I still have 11 brand-new ones. The size I only needed only came in 12-paks.

Ya. This is another pretty basic drink but I rough ridin' love it. Make a pineapple and vodka drink. Add Ice. Add splenda. Add strawberries. Blend. You've got a frozen pineapple/strawberry vodka drink.

I'm thinking about making stone tonight. Our local organic market if course has a wide selection of ginger beer and it's a hot day by the Bay, so I thought I'd give it a shot. Any recipes/tips/fun facts you'd like to share?

pissclams · « **Reply #32 on:** May 10, 2012, 07:39:25 PM »

i have a recipe i love, it includes pyrat rum, maine root ginger beer (it's kinda important that you get a spicy ginger beer and not a sweet one, this only comes from trial and error of different brands). target brand is good in a pinch. i use maine root ginger beer, $7 a 4 pack. cruzan black strap rum is a staple. a wedge of lime and a couple of diced jalapeno.

that's how i do it.

if you tell me the brands of ginger beer you're dealing with i can tell you which are good, suck, etc.

your sure this drink isnt going to suck

pissclams · « **Reply #34 on:** May 10, 2012, 07:48:44 PM »

i don't think it sucks. if you don't like spicy ginger drinks then you might not like it. remember y-l-a, taste is very subjective.

yes serious, it's an actual drink that a bartender made for me last winter.

i was asking him for tips and tricks for drinks to use my bottle of st germain in. i originally bought it because i was mixing it with champagne and something else can't remember. anyway, stopped that after the bartender made me the hendricks, lemon, champ, st g which is really good. esp this time of year.

Do not have a Costco in Wichita yet

Deal was supposedly signed. If they have the same shitty slow contractors that are building the Bball practice facitlity should be open sometime around spring 2032.
