When I was in Voodoo Militia down in Dallas I was fucking one the bartenders at Dallas City Limits club and she made up a drink called a Flaming Voodoo that would knock your dick in the dirt.
It had like 3 or 4 different kinds of Liquor in it, and was topped off with Bacardi 151 and lit on fire.
It actually got pretty popular...but not famous...:)

I remember one we use to make that was something like...
Red curacao, or some other kind of red liquer, or it could have even been 151 and grenadine (enough to make it pretty red) shaken with ice and strained into a rocks glass.
Then you take a stir straw, stick it in a glass of heavy cream, and put your finger of the end of the straw so you pick up a straw full of cream. Put the straw in the drink and pull it out fast as you take your finger off the end of the straw, leaving trail of cream in the red drink.
Used to call it an abortion, or something like that.

Yes, most bars still have Galliano.
I bartend sometimes - seems the latest "in" drink is the Rusty Nail.
Mikey reminded me of the "Brain"--
trying to recall how to make it:
I think the basis was a "dollop" of Bailey's Irish
Cream into a shot of (I think) Peppermint
Schnapps-- using an upside down spoon the
Bailey's settles to the bottom in a clump that
resembles a brain---then for added effect you
could "drizzle" some red grenadine on top of it
and --viola--- the "bloody brain" !!
who dreams this stuff up ??
When the college kids went south for spring break
they would always come back with some new concoction
and we'd have to add it to our list of crap to make !!

You gotta love em - specially the ditsy sorority chiclets - "Um, well, you know that one sweet, blue thing we had in Cabo..." thus resulting in my attempt at making several blue hawaiian type drinks - after tasting six or seven, the geniuses reply, "Oh well, can I have a bud light?"Wolfman wrote:Mikey reminded me of the "Brain"--

Irritates the hell outta me.
The other latest drink is a bomb pop. crushed ice, grenadine on bottom. Follow with mixture of sprite and flavored vodka. More crushed ice. Top with Blue Caracao. It tastes pretty dang good.
"The Old Fashioned"
Quite possibly a bartenders worst nightmare order.....
3 dashes bitters
1 tsp water
1 sugar cube
3 oz bourbon whiskey
1 slice orange
1 maraschino cherry
In an old-fashioned glass, muddle the bitters and water into the sugar cube, using the back of a teaspoon. Almost fill the glass with ice cubes and add the bourbon. Garnish with the orange slice and the cherry. Serve with a swizzle stick.

One of my favorite drinks, but I always top it off with a splash of club soda after the bourbon.Neely8 wrote:"The Old Fashioned"

Drink that kicks my ass every time...
Snakebite
1 Shot Yukon Jack
1 tsp Lime Juice
Shake in shaker with ice, serve, shoot, no chaser unless it is another Snakebite.
Drinking game that ends up kicking your ass...sink the bizmark.
Small steel pail (plastic insert suggested to avoid drinking rust)
Fill pail with beer
Put small amount of beer in bizmark glass
Pass a pitcher around the table with each person putting whatever amount of beer into the glass
Whoever sinks the biz, gotta drink the beer in the biz
Do this for 3-4 hours and get FUBARed.
PLayed that game for the first time at Nick's in Bloomington about 6 years ago. Loved it and bought my own set and play at home with friends.

not up on the latest bar drinks as I am an old married fukk, but, back in the day the long island iced tea was quite popular. A well made LIIT goes down as easy as regular iced tea. A poorly mixed one tastes like carburetor cleaner.

Cement mixer.
Hold 1 oz of Baily's in your mouth. Have bartender add 2 dashes of roses lime juice. Swish the concoction in your mouth until curdled.
Great for hard asses who think they can drink anything.

Rusty Nails are extremely popular with the twentysomethings right now, believe it or not. I've talked to some other friends who bartend and they said the same thing - its just WEIRD.Mike the Lab Rat wrote:Rob Roys and Rusty Nails are just damned nasty, pointless ways to ruin perfectly good Scotch.
What happened to Mad Dog 2020 and cheap beers?
Leon Klinghoffer (September 24, 1916 – October 8, 1985) was a retired appliance manufacturer from New York who was disabled (from a stroke) and used a wheelchair for mobility. Leon was murdered by Palestinian terrorists who hijacked the cruise ship Achille Lauro.
Leon and Marilyn Klinghoffer, both Jewish-Americans, were celebrating their 36th wedding anniversary in 1985 by taking a cruise aboard the Achille Lauro. On the afternoon of October 8, 1985, four Palestinian terrorists who had hijacked the ship shot Leon Klinghoffer while he was sitting in his wheelchair. The terrorists then threw him and his wheelchair overboard, while he was still alive as his wife watched in horror.
The body was recovered from the sea and Leon Klinghoffer was buried at Beth David Memorial Park in Kenilworth, New Jersey. Four months after Leon Klinghoffer's murder, Marilyn Klinghoffer died of colon cancer. Leon and Marilyn Klinghoffer were survived by their daughters, Ilsa and Lisa Klinghoffer.
