probably not as good as that banana colada but one I enjoyed for a mild drink [depending on the amount of vodka...] was a monkey's lunch...basically a white russian with an ounce of banana liqueur

Dead Hitler
Can be mixed either in a shaker or just in an old fashioned glass
1/3 rumplemints
1/3 Jägermeister
1/3 Goldschläger
Tastes like a candy cane and can be sneaky, also very sweet and can be the cause of a nasty hangover.

velvet hammer

equal parts of champagne and Guinness Stout. Now I know what you're thinking, the Guinness would totally overpower the champagne in taste, that's what I was sure would happen. But aahhh, try it, it turns into an easy to swill punch that goes down too easy on a hot day.

Here's a recipe for a drink I particularly find appealilng. It's easy to put together and tasty as can be....

I like to call this simply.... "Beer"

1. Open refrigerator
2. Take out bottle(or can) of beer
3. Open
4. Drink

No work involved!

I believe the mixture of Guiness Stout and champagne was drunk by officers
in the British Navy during WW2,they called it "Black Velvet".Useless trivia from
a WW2 buff. Laughing

Not useless at all, Winslow, as I for one am very interested in the history and evolution of all of our cultural trappings, and I think one of the best avenues to study culture is through their foods and drinks. It helps me understand where I came from, and how it's all connected.

Simple but perfect (though not a "perfect martini," per se, which is a different drink altogether):

Martini

chill shaker and martini glass
pour 2.5 oz Bombay Sapphire or Tanqueray Ten gin into shaker over several ice cubes
add 0.5 oz dry vermouth to shaker
shake VIGOROUSLY
strain drink from ice into cold martini glass
garnish with 3 green olives on a tooth pick

enjoy bliss

And let's be clear:

- I will permit your choice of gin
- I will permit substitution of a lemon twist for the olives, or 5 olives instead of 3
- You can make bigger batches - they key is 5:1 ratio of gin to vermouth (any drier and why not just take chilled gin shots?)
- A "vodka martini" is actually a "kangaroo"
- Anything else served in a martini glass is a "cocktail" and NOT a martini, X-tini, or whatever

There's no place in alchoholism for snobbery!!!

You drink your Dry Martini I'll drink my Blueberry Martini. We will both be drunk and happy.

A great summer time drink I first discovered at Conchy Joe's Seafood at Jensen Beach, FL is called a Hemingway Daiquiri. A tin cup filled with cracked ice, 2 oz. of Meyer's Rum and filled with fresh grapefruit juice and topped with a squeeze of lime juice.

Andrew,

I agree with your post almost 100%. Convention notwithstanding. A martini is with gin. Nothing snobbish about it, really.

Although, recently I've taken to rinsing anchovies and stuffing them into queen olives. Both gins you post are excellent. I sometime prefer regular Bombay. Tanqueray is my favorite, though.

Cheers,

TC

Off to make me a martini!

Beer & Clamato, 50/50 mix. Great on a hot day after mowing the yard.
