I'm actually chilling at home with the wife tonite, after spending way too much money on booze when I went home to visit NYC over the holidays. However at my friends bar my vast cocktail research paid off and I found an awesome, and very simple cocktail: the bees knees.


2oz gin
3/4 oz honey syrup
1/2 oz fresh lemon juice

shake with ice and serve in a chilled glass. To make honey syrup just boil water, and honey.

Anyone else have a good cocktail for me to try tonite? An easy one too, since I'm as lazy as I am drunk on NYE.

If you like a vodka-tonic, try a gin-fresca. Or as I like to call it, The Amazing Freskin.

A vodka-tonic sounds horrible to me, maybe in the 50's. vodka-lemmon juice works good. Gin-Fresca sounds similar. Do they even still sell Fresca? I haven't seen that around here in years.
Mountain Dew is pretty rare now too.
 
I used to drink Coke in a glass with a slice of lime on the rim. Not lemon. Amazing! You could add alcohol like rye to it but just saying. That is a great combination.
 
Careful: this one causes the ladies to lose their knickers

Oatmeal Cookie:
1/2 Goldschlager
1/2 Baileys Irish Cream.
Garnish with Cinnamon and nutmeg powder.

Tastes like an oatmeal cookie, with very little alcohol taste. But potent as all get out.
 
Fun drink: Brain Hemorrhage:

Pour vodka into a glass 3/4 full. "float" bailey's on top of it. Add 3 drops lemon juice to curdle the bailey's, and add Grenadine for color around the curdle.

LOL, I WAS a paramedic once.........popular drink at our parties.
