Red Russian

I like to think this was the drink Natasha was drinking in Age of Ultron, because what would be the more perfect drink for the red haired Russian?

1 part Vodka

1 part Strawberry Liqueur

Stir and pour over ice.

Dash of Blue Curaçao

Shake all the ingredients and serve over ice.

Okay, so I saw this thing floating around for how to make your own Nuka-Cola. I have no idea who came up with this but it’s: -1/3 cola -1/3 mountain dew -1/3 cream soda

I just want to say I don’t like Mountain Dew or regular Coke, but I’m sitting here drinking this and it’s absolutely delicious. So, if you saw that floating around and thought “no way” just go out on a limb and try it. Very yummy （＞ｙ＜）

So I have a plan for next Saint Patrick's Day

Green beer is gross, and we can do better. 

Saint Patrick's First Miracle: the shamrock as the trinity 1 1/2 oz Irish whiskey 1/2 oz dry vermouth 1 tsp green creme de menthe 1 olive Stir all ingredients (except olive) with ice and strain into a cocktail glass. Add the olive and serve.

Saint Patrick's Second Miracle: casting out the snakes 3/4 pint Irish hard apple cider (Magner's works fine) Float 1/4 pint Irish lager (Harp works) Float of 1 shot of creme de cassis

Saint Patrick's Third Miracle: walking stick into a tree 2 oz gin 1 tbsp dry vermouth 1/2 tsp powdered sugar 1 orange spiral 1 twist lemon peel carbonated water Stir powdered sugar and 2 oz. carbonated water in a collins glass. Fill with ice, add gin and vermouth, and stir. Fill with carbonated water and stir again. Add the twist of lemon peel and the orange spiral so that the end dangles over the rim of the glass.

Saint Patrick's Fourth Miracle: extolling the virtues of Christianity to Fionn mac Cumhaill's lieutenants 2 oz irish cream 1 oz Canadian rye whiskey 1/4 cup cold milk pinch of cinnamon Shake irish cream and rye whiksey with several cubes of ice. Pour into glass and top with milk and cinnamon.

Going clockwise from left to right:

Sailor Moon's Super Pink Vodka Tonic

First rim the glass with sugar. Add a shot of raspberry vodka (we used Smirnoff's) and then pour in tonic water. Use only one drop of red food coloring and stir. Garnish with a lemon

Sailor Mars' Fiery Red Rum Punch

For this we used V8 Fusion's Strawberry and Banana for some real flavor (and vitamins!) Add a little more than a shot of Captain Morgan's Original Spiced Rum for that extra kick! Garnish with a straw and grapes.

Sailor Venus' Vivacious Orange Mimosa

Rim the champagne flute with sugar. Pour in half a glass of champagne.  Fill the rest with orange juice and a little bit of V8 Splash's Mango Peach for a little more fruitiness and orange color!

Sailor Jupiter's Electric Green Vodka Shot

Make lime green Jello as directed on packaging. Pour in vodka (Smirnoff's again!).  Separate into shot glasses. Allow to cool. Pretty self-explanatory! 

Sailor Mercury's Cool Blue Gin and Tonic

Add one shot of gin and fill the glass with tonic water.  My favorite gin is Bluecoat American Dry Gin! It also comes in a neat dark blue bottle! (A plug for our local gin makers!) For that cool color in your drink, spritz in just a bit of blue Kool-aid! Garnish with a lemon slice.  Click the photo for original article
