========================================================================= BarBack for Windows Presents The (Un)Official Internet Bartender's Guide. This guide is the Work of Douglas Howell and can be found at http://www.mcs.com/~doc/guide.html on the World Wide Web. ========================================================================= The (Un)Official Internet Bartender's Guide Edited and Compiled by Douglas Howell (Io10677@Maine.maine.edu) Acknowledgements: The Gorilla Bartender's Guide Playboy Magazine, Febuary 1987 Mixology from Homebrew Archives Rec.food.drink (Internet) Section 01: Introduction to Mixology Section 02: Bar Measurements Section 03: Alphabetized Drink Recipes Section 04: General Drink Recipes Section 05: Liqueur Recipes Section 06: Punches and other drink Recipes Section 07: Non-Alcoholic Beverages Section 08: Overindulgence Information Section 09: Drinking Games Section 10: Listing of Drinks by Category Section 11: Cocktail Index by Spirit ========================================================================= Section 1: Introduction to Mixology ========================================================================= An Introduction to Mixology 1/2 oz. of liquor is equal to 1 count. Assuming you are using a pourer on your bottles, to measure 1 1/2 oz. of liquor, count "1001...1002...1003" as you are pouring. After a while, you should be able to do it by eye. To make highballs, fill glass two-thirds full of ice before adding liquor. Always pour liquor in before the mixer. Do not stir drinks containing carbonated mixers. To make cocktails, lowballs, and other shaken or stirred drinks, fill shaker half-full of ice. For lowballs, fill the glass about half-full of ice before pouring drink. Most shaken drinks which contain light cream can also be made as blended drinks, substituting vanilla ice cream for the light cream. To make blended drinks, first fill blender half-full of ice. If necessary, add more ice as you are blending. Always keep fruit juices and other mixers refrigerated. In fruit drinks, e.g. strawberry margaritas, always use fresh fruit, not frozen. ========================================================================= Section 2: Bar Measurements ========================================================================= Measurements: 1 part = any equal part 1 1/2 oz. = 1 shot = 44 millileters Bar Measurements Standard Bar Measurements 1 Dash/Splash 1/32 ounce 1 Teaspoon 1/8 ounce 1 Tablespoon 3/8 ounce 1 Pony 1 ounce 1 Jigger/Bar glass 1 1/2 ounces 1 Wineglass 4 ounces 1 Split 6 ounces 1 Cup 8 ounces Metric Conversions 1 fluid ounce 29.573 milliliters 1 quart 9.4635 deciliters 1 gallon 3.7854 liters 3.3814 fluid ounce 1 milliliter 33.814 fluid ounces 1.0567 quarts 1 liter 0.26417 gallon 10 milliliters 1 centiliter 10 centiliters 1 deciliter 10 deciliters 1 liter Other Measurements: English Metric ------------------------------------- ------------------- Fifth = 4/5 Qt. = 1/5 Gal. = 25.6 oz 750 ml = 25.5 oz Pint = 1/2 Quart = 16 oz 500 ml = 17.0 oz Half-Pint = 1/2 pint = 8 oz 200 ml = 6.8 oz Half-Gallon = 64 oz 1750 ml = 59.7 oz Quart = 32 oz 1000 ml = 34.1 oz A "shotglass" is usually 1.5 ounces, but sometimes 2 ounces with a measuring line at 1.5 ounces.

Dessert and drink's all in one!! ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Brain ** 1 shot Peachtree Schnapps 1/2 shot grenedine (bloody brain) 1 shot Baileys Proceedure: Over the back of a spoon pour some Baileys into a shot glass of Peachtree Schnapps. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Brain - Bloody ** 1 shot Peachtree Schnapps or Blueberry Schnapps Pour some Irish Cream on top Grenadine or Cherry Liqueur Proceedure: As above but pour grenadine down a stirrer through the Irish Cream in several places to form tendrals. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ** Brain - Bloody Shot ** Fill shot glass 3/4 of the way with Peach Schnapps Add: 1 shot Bailey's Irish Cream a dash of Cherry Liqueur Fill container with peach schnapps. Add Bailey's over the back of a spoon. Add a dash of cherry liqueur in the middle of the shot. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Brain Revisited ** 1 shot of 151 rum 1 shot of Amaretto 1 tsp of Bailey's Iris Cream The best one: 1 shot of 151 rum, 1 shot of Amaretto, a small amount of chilled Baileys Irish Cream (BIC). Pour the rum and amaretto into the glass, then add the baileys slowly, in a small stream. This is best done with a large pipette or eye dropper, but can also be done by pouring the baileys over a cherry held by the stem (that's the cherry which is held by the stem). The baileys should drip off the cherry in a small stream. This will result in a drink which is amber coloured, with a vaguely brain coloured and shaped glop of baileys suspended in the middle. Two of these will wipe most people out. It tastes good too. Not recommended to be drunk near open flames. The Brain (#2) 1 shot of vodka 1 shot of clear rum 1 tsp of baileys The second best one: 1 shot of vodka, 1 shot of clear rum, chilled baileys. Mix as above. The third best one: 1 shot of vodka, 1 shot of peppermint schnapps. Mix as above. This tastes sort of like a candy cane. Others: 1 shot of vodka, 1 shot of any schnapps, OR, 2 shots of any schnapps, baileys. Mix as above. Observations: chilling all components of the drink doesn't seem to hurt, and may help in keeping the baileys from mixing as much with the fluid it's suspended in. Adding a very small amount of Grenadine to the completed drink results in the Hemoraged (sp?) Brain, but personally I don't think it's that great. The grenadine sinks to the bottom and is tough to see. Serving suggestion: Buy some small lab beakers (new, not used) to serve this in. For extra colour and flavour, try floating some coffee beans in the drink. For extra creativity, try adding food colouring, or using an eye dropper for the baileys to squeeze it out in wierd shapes beneath the surface of the booze. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ** Brandy Alexander ** 2 oz. brandy 2 oz. dark creme de cacao 2 oz. light cream shake, strain into highball glass pinch of nutmeg and/or cinnamon ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Brandy Highball ** 1 1/2 oz. brandy fill with ginger ale or club soda serve in highball glass lemon twist ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Brave Bull ** 5 oz. tequila 2 1/2 oz. kahlua stir in highball glass ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Bronx Cocktail ** 1 oz. gin 1/2 oz. dry vermouth 1/2 oz. sweet vermouth splash of orange juice Shake, strain into cocktail glass orange slice ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Bronx Terrace Cocktail ** 1 1/2 oz. gin 1 1/2 oz. vermouth juice 1/2 lime cocktail glass ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Brown Cocktail ** 3/4 oz. gin 3/4 oz. rum 3/4 oz. dry vermouth cocktail glass ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Bubble Gum ** 1/2 oz.

Add a mixture of water and grain alcohol as long as it totals 4 cups. Add the water and alcohol separately. Place in a dish and refridgerate. The Jello should be ready in a couple of hours. Cut into cubes and swallow. You can make the Jello as strong as you want, but I suggest that you don't make it any stronger than 50% grain alcohol to 50% water. * Vodka can be substituted for the grain alcohol. You can actually use just about any alcohol for both ways of making spiked jello. ** When using grain alcohol, make sure the alcohol is from a legitimate distiller, and not from some guy that makes the stuff in a car radiator. I have found so far, three legitimate brands, Clear Springs, Everklear, and Graves XXX brand. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Jellybean ** | ** Jelly Bean ** | 3 oz. brandy | 1 part Grenadine 1 oz. anisette | 1 part Sambuca dash of grenadine | 1 part Galliano stir in highball glass ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Jolly Rancher ** 1 part Sweet and Sour 1 part Midori Splash of sweet and sour ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Judge Jr. Cocktail ** 3/4 oz. rum 3/4 oz. gin 1/4 teaspoon grenadine 1/4 teaspoon powdered sugar juice 1/4 lemon cocktail glass ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Kabuki ** 2 oz Sake 1 oz Rose's Lime Juice 1 oz Sweet and Sour Mix 1/2 oz Triple Sec Blend well, pour into salt-rimmed glass.

Put everything in a strong blender with roughly an equal amount of ice and liquify. If your blender can't crush ice, add some water and put the mixture in the freezer, stirring occasionally until slushy. Or, just serve on the rocks. Original Margarita: 3 parts tequila, 2 parts Cointreau, and 1 part fresh LEMON juice. Making salted glasses: Get some Kosher salt. Pour out a ring of salt on a cutting board; make it bigger in diameter than your glasses by a bit, and maybe 1/4 inch deep. Moisten the rim of your glass using a lime wedge. Moisten a sponge. Press the rim of the glass into the sponge and rotate; this will moisten the top 1/4 inch of the glass uniformly). Dip the glass in the salt, rotating gently to uniformly cover the rim with salt. Carefully set the glass down, and let it dry for at least 2 minutes. Then pour the drink carefully into the center of the glass. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Margarita #2 ** | ** Margarita #3 ** | In a blender mix: | 25 oz.

Frozen Pink Lemonade 1/4 cup brandy 1/4 cup Triple Sec Juice from one orange Juice from one lime If you like you can add various fruits (oranges, limes, cherries, etc.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Sangria #2 ** 2 lemons 2 limes 4 oranges 3 apples 1 large container of frozen strawberries (this can be either the whole, unsweeted type, or the sugared halves. I prefer the latter. 1 bottle of cheap burgundy wine (don't waste your money on good stuff) orange juice (unspecified amount) brandy (unspecified amount) Slice lemons, limes, oranges, and apples into thin slices, leaving the skin on. Put them into a large pitcher. (You may need two pitchers) Dump defrosted strawberries on top of the rest of the fruit. Pour the wine into the pitcher, so that it covers the fruit. Cover, and put in the fridge to marinate for a minimum of 4 hours. After the fruit has marinated, stir in orange juice and brandy to taste, depending on how strong you wish the sangria to be. If it is bitter, add sugar to taste. I usually do, then again, I like everything sweet. Serve in large clear glasses with the fruit in the glass. People are expected to put their fingers in and eat the fruit as they drink the wine. This is not a high society drink. Several glasses and you will not care anyway. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Sangria #3 ** Makes: roughly 3 gallons 15 L. inexpensive Spanish red wine (plonk) 2.5 c. inexpensive brandy 10 c. fresh orange juice (use reconstituted frozen if you're pinching pennies) juice of 10 lemons juice of 10 limes sugar to taste NOTES: you can make a small batch of this with alcohol free wine and no brandy for the designated drivers. It's not as tasty, but it's more fun than club soda. Speaking of club soda, you can stretch this (or dilute its kick) by adding sparkling mineral water or club soda. Serve it chilled, with slices of lemon, lime and orange floating in it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Sangria #3 ** Take 1 orange and 1 lemon and wash well in hot water. Slice the fruits with the skin (do not peel) into 3mm thick slices. If the slices are big, halve them. Heat 1/8 litre of water with 7g (I guess that's 7/10ths of a kg) of su until it begins to boil. Remove from heat. Add the slices of orange and lemo and 1/8 litre of freshly squeezed OJ to the water. Leave the water and its contents in room temperature for about 3 hours (saturation). Then add 7/10th litre of good red wine and 12 or so ice cubes and serve. For a nice addition add one ounce (30cc) anisette. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Santiago Cocktail ** 1/2 teaspoon powdered sugar 1/4 teaspoon grenadine juice 1 lime 1 1/2 oz. rum cocktail glass ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Saronno ** 2 oz. amaretto 2 oz. brandy 2 oz. light cream shake, strain into highball glass ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Saxon Cocktail ** juice 1/2 lime 1/2 teaspoon grenadine 1 3/4 oz. rum cocktail glass ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Sazerac ** 1 tsp simple syrup 1 dash Angostura bitters 2 dashes Peychaud bitters 1 1/4 oz rye or bourbon whiskey 3 dashes absinthe lemon peel In a cocktail shaker combine the first 4 ingredients.

As most blenders have markings on the side it is easier if you do this first. 2) Add 1 package (2" by 4" by 6") Frozen Strawberries or Add 1 can Frozen Minute-Maid LimeAid (for a Lime Daquiris) or Add 1 can Frozen Minute-Maid LemonAid (for a Lemon Daquiris) 3) Blend until smooth 4) Add ice (I use cubes but if your blender is weak you can pre-crush it) and continue blending and adding ice until either blender is full (4 or 5 cups) or mix is so thick that ice won't blend in anymore. At the 1:4 liquor:total_volume ratio I use, this would be 1.5 oz of liquor in a 6 oz serving. A purist might suggest making a Strawberry Daquiri with 1 Carton Frozen Strawberries and 1/3 Carton Frozen LemonAid ... You can also substitute 2/3 Tequilla & 1/3 Triple Sec if you want Margaritas. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ** Strawberry Daquiris #3 ** Take a blender put in one cup light rum, 1/4 cup lime juice, one pound bag of frozen strawberries (yes you can use fresh), 1/4 cup sugar (or to taste, if you use strawberries packed in syrup forget the sugar) Now put the lid on. Turn it on high speed and start dropping ice through the hole. Do this untill the blender is full. This is the slush type if you don't want it so frozen don't use frozen strawberries. You can make these stronger or weaker as desired, just keep the lime to rum ratio. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Strawberry Stripper ** 1 1/2 oz. strawberry schnapps 1 oz.

Remove, add the rest&steep for 1 week. age. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Absinthe - Commercial Recipe ** Scientific American, June 1989. It gives a commercial recipe for the preparation of absinthe using steam distillation: 2.5 kg dried wormwood 5 kg anise 5 kg fennel 95 l ethanol, 85% Mix above ingredients and steep 12 hours. Then add 45 l water Heat, and collect 95 l of distillate. Set aside 55 l, To the other 40 l of distillate, add 1 kg Roman wormwood } 1 kg hyssop }all dried, finely divided 0.5 kg lemon balm } Extract the above (with heat), and siphon off liquor, filter, and recombine with remaining 55 l. Dilute the result to yield 74% ethanol - about 100 l. Thus this liqueur is made with part distilled and part doubly distilled extract of wormwood. A much more powerful dose than a simple infusion. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Absinthe 2 ** 1 c Vodka 1 t crumbled wormwood 2 T peppermint leaves, dried+chopped 1 3/4x2" lemon peel 1/3-1/2 c sugar syrup 48 hour steep for wormwood, 8 day steep for the rest, add syrup, age. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Absinthe: 1 bottle vodka 50 g sugar 1 vial pure anise extract 1 small handful chopped licorice root 1 twig wormwood Mix together and let sit a few days. Strain through a coffee filter. To serve mix 1 part absinthe to 4 parts water, add ice, enjoy. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Amaretto Liqueur 1 cup granulated sugar 1 cup brandy 3/4 cup water 3 drops yellow food coloring 2 dried apricot halves 6 drops red food coloring 1 Tbsp. almond extract 2 drops blue food coloring 1/2 cup pure grain alcohol and 1/2 tsp. glycerine 1/2 cup water Combine sugar and 3/4 cup water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Reduce heat and simmer until all sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and cool. In an aging container, combine apricot halves, almond extract, grain alcohol with 1/2 cup water, and brandy. Stir in cooled sugar syrup mixture. Cap and let age for 2 days. Remove apricot halves. (Save apricot halves, can be used for cooking). Add food coloring and glycerine. Stir, recap and continue aging for 1 to 2 months. Re-bottle as desired. Liqueur is ready to serve but will continue to improve with additional aging. Variation: For a more prominant 'bitter almond' flavor, add 4 apricot nuts,** split in half, to basic mixture. Leave in for 2 days to 2 weeks depending upon depth of flavor desired. Remove and discard apricot nuts. Continue as directed. **Note: Apricot 'nuts' come from within the apricot pit. You may split pits yourself or obtain them dried at a health food store. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Angelica Liqueur 3 Tbsp. dried chopped angelica root 1 Tbsp. chopped almonds 1 allspice berry, cracked 1 one-inch piece of cinnamon stick, broken 3-6 anise or fennel seeds, crushed 1/8 tsp. powdered coriander seed 1 Tbsp. chopped fresh marjoram leaves or 1 tsp. dried 1.5 cups vodka 1/2 cup granulated sugar 1/4 cup water 1 drop each yellow and green food color,(optional) Combine all herbs, nuts and spices with vodka in a 1 quart or larger aging container. Cap tightly and shake daily for 2 weeks. Strain through a fine muslin cloth or coffee filter; discarding solids. Clean out aging container. Place liquid back in container. Place sugar and water in saucepan and stir to combine over medium heat.** When sugar is completely dissolved, set aside and let cool. When cool combine with food coloring and add to liqueur liquid. Cap and allow to age and mellow in a cool, dark place for one month. **Microwave Directions: This step may be done in the microwave oven using a glass bowl. Microwave on HIGH for 1 to 1.5 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Caribbean Orange Liqueur Makes 1 quart 3 large oranges 3 cups vodka 1 1/3 cups superfine granulated sugar Pare very thinly the bright-colored rind from the oranges (no white). Blot the peel on paper towels to remove any excess oil. Put peel in a 4 cup screw-top jar. Add 2 cups vodka. Close jar. Store in a cool, dark place for 2 days or until the vodka has absorbed the flavor. Remove peel and add remaining vodka. Close jar and add remaining cup of vodka. Close the jar and store in a cool dark place at least 1 month to age. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Cherry Bomb Take a jar of maraschino cheeries. Drain off the sickly red syrup. Replace it with Clear Spring / Everclear / Any-other-grain / Bacardi 151 (for those without grain) / Vodka (for wimps). You will notice a cloudiness as the alcohol strips some coloring from the cherries (good solvent, eh?). When the cloudiness is gone, it means the cherries have reabsorbed the coloring, and incidentally a good bit of 90% EtOH. Pop one in the mouth and chew. Also can be used to efficiently spike a drink. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Coffee Liqueur 10 T. instant coffee 4 T. vanilla extract 2 1/2 C. sugar 1 quart vodka 2 1/2 C. water Combine coffee, sugar and water. Simmer 1 hour and let cool. Add vanilla and vodka. Age in sealed jar 2 to 3 weeks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** COFFEE LIQUEUR >From "COFFEE: A Guide to Brewing and Enjoying" by Kennith Davids 1 part water 1 part finely ground coffee 1 part brown sugar 1 part 90 or 100 proof vodka 1 inch fresh vanilla bean per cup ground coffee 1 tsp glycerin per cup ground coffee [optional] Use a filter cone or pot to make the coffee. Slit the vanilla bean and add it to the water: bring the water just to boiling and simmer for 15 minutes, covered. Remove the vanilla bean and reserve. Pour the hot water over the coffee slowly, making sure to wet all the grounds. Pour the resulting concentrated coffee through the grounds a second time. Immediately dissolve the sugar in the hot concentrate. Add the vodka and the reserved vanilla bean, and refrigerate in a sterilized , stoppered bottle for a few days. Taste: when you can begin to distinguish the vanilla flavor, discard the vanilla bean and store the liqueur in a second bottle, or pour and serve. If you're impatient, substitute vanilla extract for the bean. Add 2 or 3 drops per cup of vodka any time after you've brewed the coffee. If you want your liqueur to have the very heavy body of the commercial product, add the glycerine before refrigerating. Variations: Substitute light rum for the vodka, or add a dash of tequila to every cup of rum or vodka. The simple addition of chocolate turns coffee liqueur into Mocha Liqueur. Thoroughly mix one part hot water and one part unsweetened cocoa powder. Add 1/2 tablespoon of this mixture to every cup of the finished coffee liqueur, and mix thoroughly. [1] Styles of coffee liqueurs differ. Before making your own, I suggest you determine which style you prefer: Kahlua, for example, is heavy-bodied and based on a dark-roast coffee; others, like Tia Maria or liqueurs based on Kona coffee, use a lighter roast. If you prefer Kahlua, use a dark-roasted coffee and go a little heavier on the vanilla and (if you use it) glycerin; if you prefer one of the liqueurs based on a lighter roast, use a medium-roast, acidy coffee, like a Costa Rican or Colombian, and go a little lighter on the vanilla and glycerin. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Coffee-Vodka (Kahlua) 2 cups water 2 cups white sugar 1/2 cup dry instant coffee 1/2 chopped vanilla bean (I use vanilla extract about 1 to 2 t.) 1 1/2 cups vodka caramel coloring (optional) Boil water and sugar until dissolved. Turn off heat. Slowly add dry instant coffee and continue stirring. Add a chopped vanilla bean to the vodka, then combine the cooled sugar syrup and coffee solution with the vodka. Cover tightly and shake vigorously each day for 3 weeks. Strain and filter. Yield: about 4 cups Its also best to let the sugar mixture cool completely so the vodka won't evaporate when its added. I've never added the caramel coloring. You really don't need it. If you like a smoother feel to the liqueur you can add about 1 teaspoon of glycerine to the finished product. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Cranberry Cordial 1 lb (1/2 kg) cranberries, coarsely chopped 3 cups (3/4 liter) sugar 2 cups (1/2 liter) light rum Place the chopped cranberries in a 2-quart (2 liter) jar that has a tight-fitting lid. Add the sugar and rum. Adjust the lid securely and place the jar in a cool, dark place. Invert the jar and shake it every day for six weeks. Strain the cordial into bottles and seal with corks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Cream Cordial 1 (14 oz.) can Eagle Brand Sweetened Milk 1 1/4 C. liqueur (almond, coffee, orange or mint) 1 C (1/2 pint) whipping or light cream 4 eggs (Grade A clean, uncracked) In blender container, combine all ingredients; blend until smooth.

(Makes about 1 quart.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** CREAMY RUM LIQUEUR 400ml can condensed milk 300ml cream 300ml milk up to 3/4cup rum(preferably Bundy-rum)I use between 1/2 to 3/4 2 tablespoons chocolate sauce 2 teaspoons instant coffee dissolved in, 2 teaspoons boiled water Mix all ingredient's slowly in a blender. Serve chilled. Keeps, sealed in the fridge, for 2 weeks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Creme de Menthe Makes 1/2 gallon 8 cups sugar 1 oz. pure peppermint extract 6 cups water 1 Tbl. green food coloring 1 pint grain alcohol (188 proof) Bring sugar and water to a boil and simmer for 10 minutes. Cool. Add the remaining ingredients and stir. Cover and let ripen for 1 month. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Daiquiri Liqueur Makes 1 quart 4 limes 3 cups light rum 1 1/2 cups superfine granulated sugar Pare very thinly the bright-colored rind from the limes (no white). Blot the peel on paper towels to remove any excess oil. Put peel in a 4 cup screw-top jar. Add 2 cups of the rum. Close the jar. Store in a cool, dark place for 2 days or until rum has absorbed the flavor. Remove the peel and add the sugar. Shake vigorously until the sugar dissolves and add remaining cup of rum. Close jar and store in a cool, dark place at least 1 month to age. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Eau d'absinthe In a mortar bruise: 1 oz. cinnamon bark. 33 oz. wormwood 1/4 oz. Angelica root. 24 oz. refined sugar 4 oz. juniper berries. Place the above ingredients in an earthen jar and pour in: 4 oz. flower water. 2 1/2 gallons spirits (10 U.P.) (UP-above proof-10UP-110proof) (brandy works) Set aside for 30 days, stirring well every day. Press; filter; bottle. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Fresh Mint Liqueur 1 1/4 cup fresh mint leaves, slightly packed 3 cups vodka 2 cups granulated sugar 1 cup water 1 tsp. glycerine 8 drops green food coloring (optional) 2 drops blue food coloring (optional) Wash leaves in cold water several times. Shake or pat dry gently. Snip each leaf in half or thirds. Discard stems. measure cut mint leaves, packing lightly. Combine mint leaves and vodka in aging container. Cap and let stand in a cool place for 2 weeks, shaking occasionally. After initial aging, strain leaves from liqueur; discard leaves. In a sucepan, combine sugar and water. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Let cool. Add cooled syrup to liqueur base, stirring to combine. Add glycerine and food color; pour into aging container for secondary aging of 1-3 more months. A real good aging container is 1/2 gallon canning jars. If you want more of this get the book " Classic Liqueurs; The Art of Making and Cooking with Liqueurs " by Cheryl Long and Heather Kibbey. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Fruit Liqueur - Berry ** (Tested on raspberries, blackberries and a mix of both). Start with fresh fruit. Place cleaned fruit into a jar. Add very strong alcohol just so it barely covers all of the fruit. -I used double distilled vodka (alcohol content probably about 55-65%). -Beware though- Apparently operating a still is VERY illegal ;-) Let the covered jar sit for about a week and a half (it's covered so the alcohol doesn't evaporate). Note that no fermentation takes place here- all that happens is that the fruit soaks up the alcohol, and releases some of its juices. Depending on the type of fruit the level of fluid may decrease. Once you've decided that the fruit has soaked in much of the alcohol gently pour off the fluid so as not to blemish the fruit (try one now for a taste experience :-). Call this (very strong) fluid rack #1. During the following steps you probably should avoid blemishing the fruit if at all possible. Replace the fruit in the jar, but layer it with sugar. How much sugar is a bit difficult to say here. I usually tried to do my best to cover almost all of the fruit with _some_ sugar. Cover the jar again. What happens now is that the sugar makes the fruit give off its alcohol and shrivel slightly. In a couple of days the level of juice in the jar should reach almost the top of the fruit. This means it is time to pour it off again, call this rack #2. Now we repeat the layering with sugar step (getting rack#3, rack#4, etc) until only a very small amount of juice is released. I have been told that with cherries this can be kept up until only a tiny little bit of cherry skin is surrounding the pit. Each rack is sweeter and sweeter. With rasp[black]berries I got to rack #4 and then got bored waiting for really small amounts of juice. So I took the berries, threw them into a cloth and twisted the hell out them to release the vestiges of alcohol and juice. This was rack#5. The left over pulp can be used with ice-cream. Note that this step is entirely optional, four racks were plenty enough (but why waste alcohol :-). Now comes the fun part. Invite several friends (I used 5) and mix the different racks in various proportions and get some feedback on how they taste (too sweet, too alcoholic, too dry, etc). Don't use too many friends or else you won't have any left after the tasting. Now you should know what proportions to mix the final product in. Disposing of juice _not_ used in the final mix is left as an exercise to the reader (I had some sweet stuff left over and use it on ice cream). Thoughts on the final mix: In my case the final mix was very close to the ratio of rack#1: rack#2: rack#3 etc. This was convenient because I got the maximum of liqueur with minimal leftovers. After a visit to a friends house in Poland and a sampling of his Cherry Liqueur (THE BEST liqueur I have EVER tasted)- I have decided to make liqueur also. Here are the directions he gave me (for cherry liqueur): Fill a Jar with cherries. Add alcohol to cover all the cherries. Let sit for a week or so, the cherries should have swelled and there should be less liquid in the jar. Pour off the liquid. a)Layer the cherries with sugar and let sit another week. b)Pour off resulting fluid. c)Repeat steps a) and b) until the cherries are so small that they're just basically the pit covered with a very thin skin. Now mix all the batches that you poured off to suit your taste. The first is most bitter, the last is the sweetest. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Fruit Liqueur - Citrus - Find a glass container with an opening large enough to comfortable accept a medium size orange. the small the container the better. - Invert a glass shot glass and center in the bottom of the container. - Pour a cup of Everclear into the container without wetting the shot glass top. Place a fresh orange on top of the shot glass. The orange should have a moderately thick skin, but not excessive. - A ground glass top is ideal, if not, a closely fitting plate will do to cover the brue. _ Check daily as the orange "sweats" its oils. It will slow after three or four days (a week is OK but not necessary). DO NOT OPEN AT ANY TIME till done. - Remove orange and shot glass and pour in a cup of bar syrup. Theres no majic here, find your own sweetness level, this is just for openners. - Pour into a regular bottle and stopper tightly (after you've tasted it, clear, crisp, intence, pure, WOW, no more of those orange liqueurs again). This stuff is fragile so plan on using it soon and don't make more than you can use, one week is fine, after two it very drinkable but the flavor is noticably less. And, it will get cloudy with no appearent affect. Yes any citris will work (never tried a grapefruit), we even put two dozen mint leaves on a thread and hung over. The leaves turned black and crumbly, but the taste; sheer POWER. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Galliano Makes 4 1/2 cups 2 cups distilled water 1 cup white corn syrup 1/2 cup sugar 2 or 3 drops yellow food coloring 1 1/2 cups grain alcohol (188 proof) 6 drops anise extract 2 teaspoons vanilla extract Boil water, corn syrup and sugar for 5 minutes. Add the remaining ingredients and stir. Cover and let stand 1 month. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ** Grand Orange-Cognac Liqueur ** 1/3 cup orange zest* 1/2 cup granulated sugar 2 cups cognac or French brandy 1/2 tsp glycerine Place zest and sugar in a small bowl. Mash and mix together with the back of a wooden spoon or a pestle. Continue mashing until sugar is absorbed into the orange zest and is no longer distinct. Place into aging container. Add cognac. Stir, cap and let age in a cool dark place 2 to 3 months, shaking monthly. After initial aging, pour through fine mesh strainer placed over medium bowl. Rinse out aging container. Pour glycerine into aging container and place cloth bag inside strainer. Pour liqueur through cloth bag Stir with a wooden spoon to combine. Cap and age 3 more months before serving. Note: ----- Grand Marnier is a classic orange liqueur to be savored. While ordinary brandy can be used, we recommend a good cognac or French brandy for best flavor. Ready in 5 to 6 months. Makes about 1 pint. * Authentic Grand Marnier uses bitter Haitian oranges to produce its classic taste. You may use any type of orange peel you wish; however, a bitter type, such as Seville, is preferred for authenticity. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ** Homemade Cream Cordial 1 (14 oz.) can Eagle Brand Sweetened Milk 1 1/4 C. liqueur (almond, coffee, orange or mint) 1 C (1/2 pint) whipping or light cream 4 eggs (Grade A clean, uncracked) In blender container, combine all ingredients; blend until smooth. Serve over ice if desired. Store tightly covered in refrigerator up to one month. Stir before using. (Makes about 1 quart.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** HONEY LIQUOR (rather strong) The strong variant is also called "Baerenfang" (bear catch), because it is said that two or so hundred years ago bears were caught in the forests of Northern Europe by putting out pans of that brew, and when they (the bears, not their hunters) got drunkily asleep they could be caught without danger. 500g pure bee's honey 1/4l water 3/8l spirit of wine (alcohol) Dissolve honey in hot water. The water should not be hotter than 45 degrees Celsius (113 degrees Fahrenheit). Let the mixture cool down, then add spirit of wine. Suggestion: Exchange spirit of wine with spirits like whisky, brandy or a similar strong liquor, then you'll get a lighter liquor. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Irish Cream 1 C scotch wiskey 1 1/4 C half and half 1 can sweetened condensed milk 3 drops coconut flavoring 1 T chocolate syrup Mix scotch and milk.

I tried it once, it tasted terrible, but that was probably due to the fact that the rye-bread was almost burned. 500 gr. Rye-bread 8 l water 25 gr yeast (the book mentions yeast to make bread) 225 gr sugar 4 spoons of luke warm water 1 lemon 2 spoons of raisins 2 branches of peppermint 1. Put the slices of rye-bread in the oven (200 degrees Celsius) for about 45 mins, until they're dried. 2. Boil the 8 liters of water. Crumble the dried rye-bread, put it in the boiling water for about 5 mins. 3. Let it the water, and rye-bread rest for 4 hours, covered with a tea-cloth. 4. Crumble the yeast, 15 mins before the 4 hours are over. Mix the crumbled yeast with some sugar and the luke warm water. Let it rest for 15 mins. 5. Filter the water-rye-bread mix in a kitchensieve. Carefully extract all water from the rye- bread. 6. Wash, and peel the lemon. Add the lemon-peel, the sugar, the yeast and the pepermint. Stirr the solution, and let it rest (covered) for 8 hours. 7. Sieve the solution (tea-cloth). 8. Bottle it. 9. Put some raisins, a bit of lemon-peel, and a fresh leaf of peppermint in every bottle, close the bottles, and keep them in a cool place. 10. Ready when the raisins start floating. 11. Sieve the stuff one more time in a tea-cloth. 12. Put the Kvas in the fridge 4 hours before drinking. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Liquor Story *- JOHNNY WALKER ----Was hunting with MARTINI & ROSSI ----when he met HIRAM WALKER ----coming down COBBA CREEK ----with QUEEN ANNE ----who lived on the CUTTY SARK ----up in HUDSON'S BAY ----near the GREEN RIVER ----He took her, smelling like FOUR ROSES ----over to the TOWN TAVERN ----where he removed her GOLD LABEL ----and tickled her with THREE FEATHERS ----until she was BLACK & WHITE ----and dying for his CANADIAN CLUB ----with the RED CAP ----He put his STANDFAST ----in her JORDAN VALLEY ----so they rented OLD OVERHOLT'S ----room at the MARYLAND CLUB ----and it was PERFECTION ----when he stuck his WHITE HORSE ----into her VAT '69 ----times and pumped his TEACHER'S HIGHLAND CREAM --until her OLD DRUM ----was stretched as wide as MOUNT VERNON ----and being SCOTCH ----he didn't even give her a SILVER DOLLAR ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Mead ** 3 lbs honey (lighter the better) 1 lemon 1 orange 1/2 oz citric acid, 2-3 drops Tannin or 1/16th oz yeast 1. Put honey into large pot add hot water to make up total to 1 gallon stir well until honey melts, simmer low for further 5 minutes 2. Add the juice of lemon and orange, the tannin citric acid 3. Strain liquid into fermentation vessel,place in warm spot and plug the top with cotton wool. Wait 4 days then...... 4. Now fit fermentation lock onto vessel. ASIDE ( glass jar large enough to take all the liquid is all that is needed To make ferm.vessel..as for the lock...use a rubber bung with a hole punched into the top..now buy an air lock (used in beer fermenting) and use that as the lock ...cost... $2.50) 5. After the mixture stops bubbling (approx 3-5 days) siphon into sterilized container add one Campden tablet and close the container with air lock. 6. Let stand until clear then siphon into sterilized bottles,add 1 teaspoon of sugar per 750 ml bottle and cap... wait 14 days then drink. I use old beer bottles sterilized with MILTON antibacterial solution. This stuff is used in sterilizing baby's bottles. You can use sodium bi-metasulphate but it works out to be more expensive than milton. This gives 1 gallon for approx 75c per 750 ml bottle of wine Sorry to mix measurements but we use metric and u guys use imperial,in aus the large beer bottles are 750 ml standard so everything is in proportion to the 750 bottle. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Medd (Met, Honey Wine) ** 2.3 l (4 pints) honey 9 l (2 gallons) water 4 lemons 30 g (1 oz) cloves 900 g (2 lb) white sugar piece of ginger (scoured) 60 g (2 oz) yeast small piece of bread Spread the yeast on a piece of bread.

The health food store owner that I asked told me that I could try Britain. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Sweet/Sour Mix ** 6 oz tequila 1.5 oz Triple Sec Sour mix: --------- 1.5 oz sugar 4.5 oz water 2 oz fresh squeezed lime juice lime zest (grated lime peel) Let sour mix sit in fridge 1 hour to several days. Combine with tequila and Triple Sec, shake over ice, strain, and serve. Note: ----- Use good tequila (i.e., Comemorativo or 1800 if you only have access to Sauza and Cuervo); the Triple Sec doesn't matter much. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Tia-Maria 1 cup of water 3/4 to 1 cup of brown sugar 4 taespoons coffee powder Boil for 10 mins and let cool.

Boil for 5 minutes. Gradually stir in coffee. Cool. Add vodka and vanilla and mix thoroughly. Cover and let ripen for 1 month. Remove vanilla bean. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Vanilla Liqueur ** 3 pods vanilla 500-600 ml clear brandy or vodka ca. 1 cup sugar-candy (or to taste) Cut vanilla pods first lengthwise, then in 1/2 inch pieces. Put in a bottle, add brandy and sugar, and shake *very* well until the sugar has dissolved. Now leave the mixture about 1 month so that the vanilla flavour has time to develop properly. After one month you can strain the liqueur so that the vanilla particles are removed. The vanilla liqueur keeps a very long time (I made it one year ago and it's still okay). To serve you have two possibilities: either use the liqueur as it comes out of the bottle, or mix with half'n'half or whipping cream. The latter doesn't keep too long though, it should be used in the next days (or right now). You can also pour a small amount of the liqueur in a glass of milk as a kind of alcoholic vanilla milk. =================================================================== | Section 6: Punches and Party Drinks | =================================================================== ** Aloha Fruit punch 3/4 cup water 2 teaspoons ginger root, chopped 2 cups guava juice 1 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice 1 1/2 cups pineapple, finely chopped 1 cup sugar 3-4 cups pineapple juice Add 1/4 cup water to ginger root.

Decorate with twists of lemon peel. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Bahamas Rum Punch ** Pineapple Juice Rum a very small quantity of Coconut Rum (VERY small!) Campari enough to make it red Orange Juice Mix it up varying the ingredients to taste. Balance the Orange and Pinneapple, add a little coconut rum till you can slightly taste the coconut, then enough Campari to redden it and then make up the rest with rum. A delicious and authentic island drink that will make you very drunk if you aren't careful ('cuz its so good to drink!). ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Banana Punch makes 5 quarts 7 cups water 3 1/2 cups sugar 5 bananas, mashed in blender 1 6-ounce can frozen orange juice concentrate 1 6-ounce can frozen lemonade concentrate 1 46-ounce can pineapple juice 1 quart ginger ale Boil water and sugar for 5 minutes. Cool and add the remaining ingredients except ginger ale. Freeze. Remove from freezer 2 to 3 hours before serving. Mix with ginger ale. Float assorted fruit in punch bowl. Vodka could also be added. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Basic Punch ** My basic 'recipe' is 1 2-litre bottle of a clear-type soda (such as ginger ale or 7-up); 2 bottles of fruit juice (~1/2 gallon size each), each a different flavour; and a 2 pints of a complimentary sherbert. Just mix all the liquids together, and float the sherbert in the punch just before serving. I made one for Christmas with 7-up, an orange-pineapple juice blend, a coconut-orange blend, and orange sherbert. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Berry Deadly ** 2 pints Everclear 1 bottle Boone Strawberry Hill Wine 1/2 gallon orange juice 1 gallon Tropical Berry Kool-Aid Add all ingredients to large bowl.

Mix in a punch bowl: 2 cups sugar 375 ml (1/2 bottle) Brandy (say, Christian Brothers) 5 bottles champagne (say, Frexinet) Then stir in: 6 oranges, 6 lemons and 6 limes, sliced thin into rounds 1 pineapple, cut into chunks (canned will do, but fresh is better) 1/2 bag of ice in small cubes or crushed (more or less to fit the bowl) Until well mixed. To complete, garnish with strawberries and pour a final bottle of champagne theatrically over the top. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Cherry Ice Ring Rinse some marashino cherries and arrange them in a circular-shaped mold or container. I use a plastic container I got from some dates I bought a while back. Orange or lemon slices can also be used in addition to cherries. Fill about 2/3rds full with water - AT LEAST enough to cover the fruit - and freeze overnight. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Chowning's Tavern Wine Cooler (1 serving) ** 3/4 glass lemonade sprig of mint 1/4 glass dry red wine maraschino cherry This makes a colorful as well as refreshing drink if the liquids are not mixed together. Pour the lemonade over crushed ice, then add the red wine. Garnish with a sprig of mint and a cherry. Good for hot days. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Cold Duck Punch ** 1 bottle cold duck champagne 1 can frozen lemonade, melted 1 bottle ginger ale (2 liter) 1/2 gallon rainbow sherbert Mix all liquids in a large punch bowl. Float the sherbet on top. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Coquito 1 can of cream of coconut (15 ounces) 4 cans of evaporated milk (12 ounces) 1 can of condensed milk (14 ounces) 4 egg yolks 2 or 3 cinnamon sticks 1 liter of rum (white) In 1/2 liter of water, boil the cinnamon sticks. Take the sticks out when the water is yellow and has the smell and taste of cinnamon. Add the evaporated milk, condensed milk and egg yolks and cook at low temperature. While it's cooking stir to avoid it sticking to the bottom of the pot. When it is boiling for a few minutes, add the cream of coconut and rum. Stir well and take off the burner. Let it cool and it will be ready. Keep it in the refrigerator and it will last for a very long time. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Cranberry Punch (from Ideals Christmas Cookbook) 4 c. cranberry juice 1 1/2 c. sugar 4 c. pineapple juice 1 tbsp. almond extract 2 qts. ginger ale Combine first four ingredients. Stir until sugar is dissolved, chill. Then add ginger ale just before serving. Add cherry ice ring to keep punch cold. Serves 30. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Cranberry Tea Hot Punch ** 1 bag cranberries 1 cinnamon stick 1/2 tsp ginger 2 cups apple cider 8 tea bags 4 cloves 1/2 cup brown sugar Boil the cranberries until they pop, in about 1/2 cup of water. Then press the cranberries through a seive, and extract the juice. Save the juice. You can do this in advance. It's pretty thick, almost a puree. If you can find unsweetened cranberry juice, you can use that. Common cranberry cocktail is too sweet. Make strong tea with 8 teabags and 4 cups of boiling water. Add 2 cups of cranberry juice and 2 cups of apple cider, brown sugar, and spices. Stir until the sugar dissolves. Garnish with orange slices. Serve. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Egg Nog Woman's Day 12/17/91, by Helene Belanger of Denver. 2 quarts skim milk (8 cups) 3/4 c. + 2 T. granulated sugar 1/8 teaspoons ground nutmeg (& a little extra for garnish) 4 whole eggs -or- 8 oz. cholesterol & fat-free egg substitute 2 whites from eggs 1/2 cup light rum 2 teaspoons vanilla extract 1 cup evaporated milk 1.

Just mix all the liquids together, and float the sherbert in the punch just before serving. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Fruit Champagne Punch ** 2 cups sugar 375 ml (1/2 bottle) inexpensive Brandy (say, Christian Brothers) 5 bottles decent cheap champagne (say, Frexinet) then stir in 6 oranges, 6 lemons and 6 limes, sliced thin into rounds 1 pineapple, cut into chunks (canned will do, but fresh is better) 1/2 bag of ice in small cubes or crushed (more or less to fit the bowl) To complete, garnish with strawberries and pour a final bottle of champagne theatrically over the top. Total cost is around $50 (maybe as low as $25 if you use really cheap champagne) for about 50 drinks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Fruit Punch ** 1 Part Minute Maid Fruit Punch concentrate 1/3 Part Orange juice concentrate 1/2 Part Limeade concentrate 2 Liters Sprite ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Fruit Punch ** Here is a good one to try. Get some fruit (apples, watermellon, oranges, bannanas, etc) and a bottle (or two, if you're really bold) of Everclear (can you guys get it up there?). If not, use 100 proof vodka or 151 rum. Slice up the fruit and let it soak by itself overnight in the alcohol. Then add a 3-4 (maybe 5) cans of Haiwaian Punch and a bottle or two of something fizzy (ginger ale, seven up, etc.). Enjoy and watch out for the apples, they hold the most alcohol. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Fruit Punch #1 ** 1 gallon lemon/lime drink (this is the GREEN) 2 liter bottle 7-Up 1 large can pineapple juice ----------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Fruit Punch #2 ** This is a family procedure rather than recipe dating from my grandmother. You need: a pinapple, oranges, lemons, and OTHER FRUIT. Particularly good OF include passionfruit, limes, kiwis ( for look not taste ). Also equal amounts of "lemonade" and ginger ale. In Australia lemonade means something like Sprite/7UP but not nearly so sweet: lemon juice plus a little sugar plus sparkling water ( but not bitter ) would work. Mint is a good addition, especially fresh mint. Core and peel the pineapple: dice down to bite-size. Juice about 4 each of oranges and lemons ( the ugly ones ) and wash and slice the others. Add the other fruit. Mix in 2 l of each soft drink and let it sit awhile in the fridge. When the level gets low, add more soft drink and more fresh juice if possible. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Fruit Punch #5 (All ingredients are approximate, you can adjust to taste) 2 packets UNsweetened red Koolaid mix 2 2-liter bottles soda (lemon-lime, grapefruit, ginger ale) 1 can frozen lemonade concentrate 1 can frozen pineapple juice conc. or 1 can pineapple juice(32-48 oz) sugar, as needed Make up the koolaid ahead of time, by dissolving in a small amount on water (as little as possible). Don't add sugar! Cool this mixture. With everything cold, mix it all together, just before the party. You can add sherbert to keep it cold, or make ice cubes, or an ice cube ring, using the koolaid mixture. You probably won't need to add any sure to this, as the soda, lemondade, and pineapple juice should contain plenty. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Fruited Ice Ring Turn your favorite punch into a sparkling delight by adding a colorful fruited ice ring. The ice ring is easy to prepare and makes a beautiful presentation. Use the fruit of your choice and, if you wish, substitute fruit juice for the water. Just be sure to coordinate the flavor and color of the juice with the ingredients of your punch. Water 1/2 lb red and/or green seedless grapes, cut in small clusters 1/2 pint fresh strawberries 1 small orange, sliced, then halved Nontoxic leaves, such as lemon leaves or rose leaves 1. Pour water into a 5-cup ring mold (or any size ring mold that fits your punch bowl) to 1/2 inch below top of mold; freeze until firm, about 3 hours. 2. Arrange grapes, strawberries and orange slices decoratively on top of ice in mold. Tuck leaves between fruit, as desired. Arrange so that some fruit and leaves stand above top of mold. 3. Add enough water to fill the ring mold; freeze until firm, about 1 hour. Dip ring mold in warm water for a few seconds to loosen ice; unmold and float fruit side up in punch. Fruited Ice Cubes Suggested Fruits Beverage ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lemon slices Iced tea Strawberries, raspberries, Lemonade lemon or lime slices Pineapple chunks; grapes; Punch strawberries; raspberries; maraschino cherries; mandarin oranges; orange, lemon or lime slices Lime slices, strawberries, Ginger ale raspberries To make fruited ice cubes, fill an ice-cube tray halfway with water; freeze until firm, about 1 1/2 hours. Place one or two pieces of desired fruit in each section of the tray. Fill with water; freeze until firm, about 1 1/2 hours. If desired, substitute lemonade or a light-colored juice for the water.

Anyway, this makes a pretty nice gl|gg: add cloves, cardamon pods, cinnamon, amd citrus peel to a glass with a generous measure of snaps (akvavit) or vodka. Let sit for a day or so. This makes a cery nice extract that can be added to any decent red wine. Just heat up the wine slowly (dont let it boil!!), and add sugar and extract to taste. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Gl|gg in the Microwave - 1 bottle (75 cl) of Cote du Rhone (or equal) - 3 pcs. of bark cinnamon - 8 pcs. of clove - 1/2 dl of sugar - 1/2 sqeezed lemon Some thin slices of lemon, if you'd like. Mix all ingredients, except for the lemonslices, in a jug. Heat it (using a lid) on full power for 5-6 minutes or, if you are using a temperature meter, 75'C. Stir, until the sugar is dissolved. Serve in a small cup, with a slice of lemon for decoration. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Glogg In my neck of the woods, it wouldn't be Christmas without a steaming mug of glogg. The recipe that follows is called professor's glogg for some reason (unknown to me). One caveat: this drink is potent. Collect and hide all car keys at the start of the evening. 2 bottles of red wine (Cabernet/Burgundy) 1 1.75 liter bottle of vodhka 20 cardomon pods 10 cloves 2 1" to 2" sticks of cinnamon bark 1 piece of orange rind 1 1/2 cups whole blanched almonds 1 1/2 cup of raisins 10 or more dried figs 1 lb lump sugar (1) Pour the wine & vodhka into a large pot. Add spices, fruit and nuts. Turn on the heat and bring the ingredients to a temperature just below the boil. (2) Now for the fun part. Invite all of your guests into the kitchen. Place the sugar cubes in a sieve (one that you don't mind sacrificing to the greater good). Don oven mitts and set the glogg on fire. Ladle the burning glogg over the sugar cubes until it has all melted. I usually do this with the overhead lights off for greater theatrics. (3) When the sugar is melted, cover the pot to extinguish the flame. Ladle glogg, fruit and nuts into mugs and serve. Note: This recipe serves about a dozen glogg devotees. We're boozers. Your mileage is sure to vary. The wine and spirits need not be premium. Indeed, my father insists that expensive ingredients yield an inferior product. --------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Glogg (Swedish Mulled Wine) ** This may have originally come from Gourmet magazine. 1/2 c. golden raisins 1/3 c. sugar 1/4 c. blanched almonds 12 cloves 6 cardamom pods, bruised 2 sticks cinnamon 2 large pieces of orange peel 1-1/3 c. water 3 c. dry red wine 3 c. tawny port 1-1/2 c. brandy Combine all the non-alcoholic ingredients in a heavy enamel or stainless steel saucepan, bring to a boil and simmer 5 minutes. Add the red wine and the port and bring to a boil again. Remove from heat and let steep, covered, for at least 2 hours. Then bring back to a simmer, add the brandy, and heat for 1 minute. If you want to be fancy you can put it into a warmed metal bowl, turn down the lights and ignite it before serving. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Glogg ** Pour into a kettle: 2 750 ml bottles wine (port, cream sherry, claret, burgundy, or madeira Insert cheesecloth bag containing: 2 oz dried orange peel 2 oz cinnamon stix 20 cardamom seeds 25 cloves Slowly boil for 15 mins. Add 1 lb each blanched almonds & seedless raisins; boil another 15 mins. Remove from heat. Place wire grill containing 1lb lump sugar over kettle. Pour 750 ml brandy over sugar, saturating it. Light sugar with match and let flame; when melted, put lid on kettle to extinguish flame. Stir, remove spice bag, serve. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Glogg - Christmas ** 2 bottles dry white wine 20 cl vodka (Absolute is the best, and purest) (6.8 fl.oz.) 37 cl dry sherry (12.5 fl.oz) 4 pieces cinnamon 2 spoons cardamon seeds 1 spoon clove 4 piece bitter orange peel, Seville orange peel 30 cl sugar (10 fl.oz) 10 dash aromatic tincture (from your nearest swedish drugstore) Preparation: 1. Stir half a bottle of the wine with the spicesand sugar under heating, close to boiling. 2. Remove casserolee from heat. Set aside for 24 hours. 3. Strain off spices, and add remaining wine, vodka, sherry, and aromatic tincture (this is a spice concentrate). 4. Bottle your glogg, seal well, and let mature for a week. COMMENTS: There are several recipes for glogg. It should be served hot, but not boiling (the alcohol would evaporate), with raisins and almonds. All recipes have been published by the Swedish spirits retail monopoly, so they should be good. You can probably also make your own recipe from the three above, with the spices you can find in your shop. Some people add more vodka (or even Everclear, pure alcohol) to get it 'high- spirited'. They usually end up with a good hangover the day after. By the way, glo"gg has the two dots over the O. In case your terminal can do that trick. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Glogg - Grandfather's ** 1 bottle Red wine 1/2 bottle Madeira 3-5 clove, alternatively 2-3 teaspoon ground cardamon 1-2 pieces cinnamon 10 to 15 cl sugar (about 3.5 to 5 us fl.oz) shredded peel of 1/4 lemon, without the white part. Organic for your own health. Mix wine and spices, and heat it under cover some minutes on low heat - DO NOT BOIL. Add sugar, lemon peel and stir. Keep on heat and covered for a few more minutes. Serve with raisins and almonds. (You have to throw the almonds in boiling water for maybe a minute, and peel of the brown 'coating'. They should be white for use with glogg.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Glogg - Grandmother's ** 1 bottle Red wine 1/2 bottle sweet vermouth 8 clove 8 shelled cardamon 2 pieces cinnamon 1 piece orange peel (organic preferably) Mix everything in a casserole. Keep overnight. Heat the mixture - do NOT boil. Strain and serve hot woth raisins and almonds. (You have to throw the almonds in boiling water for maybe a minute, and peel of the brown 'coating'. They should be white for use with glogg.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Glogg - Swedish ** (Serves 8) Winemakers Recipe Handbook by Raymond Massaccesi. A hot cup of glogg is the Swedish way of offering a warm welcome to a friend on a wintery evening. 1 cup blanched almonds 12 cardamon seeds, peeled 12 cloves whole 6 2.5" cinnamon sticks 6 candied oranges or peel of one orange 1 btl Burgundy or Claret (26 oz) 1 cup dark raisins 1 btl Brandy or Aquavit (26 oz) 1 cup cube sugar, crush Put cardamon seeds, cinnamon, cloves and orange parts in nylon bag and tie top. In large saucepan put bag, half bottle of the wine, and the raisins. Cover and simmer for 15 minutes. Add remaining wine and the almond; heat through. In another saucepan warm about 1/3 of the brandy (or aquavit); pour in sugar and light with match to flame. When sugar has melted, pour in the remainder of brandy. If necessary extinguish flame with cover lid. Add sugar mixture to wine mixture. Pour in cups with raisins and almonds in each serving. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Glogg '90 ** (2 week recipe) Contain into 2 separate cheesecloth "packages": cheese cloth #1: 3 sticks cinnamon 5 whole cloves 5 cardamom seeds (expensive, by the way) 1 chopped orange peel Cheese cloth #2: [These packages should be loose 1/2 lb. raisins enough such that the spices swim 7 oz. blanched almonds freely, but packages can be removed without too much hassle.] Boil in 2 cups water for 15 minutes: 1 cup sugar both cheeseclothed packages. Add all the above (including the boiling water) to: 1.5 l. Port wine (Gallo) 750 ml. Sherry (Christian Brothers California Golden Sherry) 1 cup Absolut (~250 ml.) Warm it all until finger warm. then remove from heat as soon as it gets to the finger warm stage, cover (with plastic), and let sit 2 weeks. After 2 weeks, try it. if its ready, throw out the cheese cloth with the spices and keep the almonds and raisins for putting in with the drinks. Do not store with the raisins in after the point when it tastes good or else, it tends to become raisin juice. To serve: place some raisins and almonds (the pre-spiked ones) into some of the concoction, heat (do not boil) and serve. For a longer sitting period (4 weeks), decrease the amount of spices, etc. (but don't decrease the amount of sugar), and maybe skip the step where you warm the whole concoction before storage. For a shorter sitting period, increase the amount of spices (not the sugar) and warm the whole concoction before storage for several hours (like 5 or 6, not the 3 or 4 minutes of the 2 week method) at finger warm. It should not be stored for less than 2 days. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Gluewein ** (Quantity) 4 litres of cheap red wine 250 ml of cheap brandy/vodka 1 cup sugar juice of 3 Lemons pinch of cardamom 6 cinnamon sticks 6 full slice of lemon approx 5mm thick 1 bay leaf Chuck all ingredients in large pot EXCEPT for the sugar, cover , simmer gently for 10 mins ,taste. Now add 2 teaspoons of sugar per person level NOT heaped. Simmer for 10 mins. Place lemon slices in glass mugs and ladle the concoction into glass. The lemon must float.If not ,discard lemon and cut new slices. The secret is to drink the hot mixture thru the lemon..it gives a very distinctive flavour. CAUTION:::::: DO NOT ALLOW THE MIXTURE TO BOIL::::::::: after all you wouldnt want all that alcohol to evaporate would you? ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Gluehwein ** Source: "Das neue grosse Kochbuch" from Roland Goeoeck 1 l red wine 125 ml water 60 g sugar 3-4 cm of a cinnamon stick 3 cloves peel of a half lemon Boil sugar and spices in water, leave in the water for 30 minutes. Strain the spiced water and mix with the wine. Heat slowly until short of boiling temperature. You may add lemon or orange juice to taste. Variations: ----------- French Gluehwein: ----------------- Take Bordeaux as red wine and use cinnamon, ground nutmeg and a bay leaf as spices. Seal: ----- Exchange white wine for red wine. You may add lemon juice to taste. Use the same spices as in the basic recipe above. Negus: ------ Use a port wine instead of red wine. In this case you should take the same amount of water and wine (500ml of each). Season it with ground nutmeg and lemon peel. Honey-Gluehwein: ---------------- Sweeten red wine with 150g honey, add a bit of a cinnamon stick and two slices of lemon. Heat until short of boiling temperature. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Gluhwein ** (Individual) For each person, you need: 1 cup red wine 1 tablespoon sugar 1 slice lemon You also need some cloves and cinnamon sticks. Add about 6 cloves and one cinnamon stick for each litre of the mixture. (Use more or less depending on taste - another friend prefers a stronger clove taste.) Put the sugar, lemon slices and spices in a pot and heat gently until the sugar is melted. (It may be necessary to poke at the lemon with a fork to release the juice.) Add wine and heat gently, stirring, until drinking temperature is reached. Leave it for a while for a stronger spice/lemon flavour. If you are concerned about the alcohol, you can boil it gently for a while which will remove the alcohol. A slightly different flavour can be obtained by including some vanilla beans. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Gogl-Mogl ** 1 egg 1 jigger whiskey 1 Tbs honey milk This is essentially a hot eggnog. You beat an egg, add a tablespoon of honey and a jigger of whisky. Pour this into a glass and then fill the glass with warm milk and stir until it's well mixed. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** GOLDEN GLOW PUNCH 25 servings (about 1/2 cup each) (For more servings, just keep the same proportions. The book also suggests using 2 large punch bowls when serving 150, and putting a different flavor of sherbet in each bowl.) 1 can (6 ounces) frozen orange juice concentrate, thawed 1 can (6 ounces) frozen lemonade concentrate, thawed 1 quart apple juice, chilled 2 quarts ginger ale, chilled 1 pint lemon or orange sherbet, if desired Ice Ring (instructions following), if desired - Pour the concentrate and the apple juice into the punch bowl. - Stir the ginger ale into the bowl. - Spoon in sherbet or add an Ice Ring. - Serve immediately. ICE RING Requirements: - A ring mold (one that fits into the punch bowl you'll be using) - Fruit slices - Water Instructions: -Arrange thin overlapping slices of lime, orange, & lemon in a ring mold. -Pour water into mold to partially cover fruit (about 1/4 inch); freeze. -When frozen, add more water to fill mold 3/4 full; freeze. -Unmold ring and float fruit side up in punch. -For a crystal-clear ice ring, boil and cool the water before pouring into mold. -For a more colorful ring, add about 1/3 cup cranberries with the fruit slices, or alternate fruit slices and whole strawberries in the mold. -Carnations, roses, mums, or other flowers can be frozen in an ice ring, too. Wash flowers, remove stems, and place blossom side down in mold. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Goombah Punch 1.75 Light Rum 750 ml Malibu Rum 4 46 oz Hawaiian Punch 4 46 oz Orange Hi-C Mix with ice. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ** Great Pumpkin Punch ** 1 part apple cider 2 parts ginger ale 1 part rum Serve in a hollowed out pumpkin with floating pumpkin chunks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Green Punch ** 1/5 Blue Hawaiin Maui Schnapps 1 gallon Orange juice 1/5 Light Rum ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Holiday Cheer ** 1 bottle of champagne 1 can of frozen cranberry juice 1 lime Mix champagne and frozen cranberry juice (undeluted). Slice lime and garnish each wine glass. Serve with breakfast to start the day right. Note: mix right before serving to retain the bubbles. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Holloween Punch ** This one is from my childhood. It's non alcoholic but could doubtless be spiked. Take a bunch of grape juice and a bunch of fizzy stuff (club soda, ginger ale, lemonlime, whatever). Mix them in a punch bowl. Take orange sherbet and lime sherbet. Scoop out scoops and float them in the punch; let them melt a little so that a nasty film spreads all over the top of the punch but there are still "bubbles" in it in the form of sherbet scoops. Looks horrible, tastes just fine. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Hop Skip and Go Naked Punch ** Take a Cooler and throw a bag of ice in it. Add: 6 pack of beer (or more to taste) fifth of just about any white liquor 3 cans of frozen Lemon Lime Daqueri mix Stir until Daqueri mix has liquified. Enjoy. --------------------------------------------------------- twelve 12oz cans/bottles beer 12oz LimeAid concentrate Vodka to taste (and potency) Bottled beer works a little better since it doesn't have that tin-can taste. I've made it with anywhere from a cup or two of vodka to most of a bottle, and it tastes about the same. Depends on if you want to drink or get drunk. Feel free to change the proportions; when I make it I just twiddle the beer/limeaid until it tastes good, then throw in the vodka. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Hot Buttered Cranberry Punch Makes 50 ounces 1 16-ounce can jellied cranberry sauce 1/3 cup light brown sugar, firmly packed 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg 1/8 teaspoon salt 2 cups water 2 cups unsweetened pineapple juice butter pats Crush cranberry sauce with a fork.

Yield 5 1/2 quarts. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Party Punches ** I. Mix following ingredients together; freeze to slush consistency and serve "slushy". 1 (46oz) can pineapple juice 1/2 bottle vodka 1 (46oz) can Hawaiian Punch 1 liter ginger ale II. Put into container in freezer (stir occasionally while freezing) the following ingredients: 2 C whiskey 1 (6oz) can frozen lemonade 1 large can pineapple juice 1 (6oz) can frozen orange juice 1 large bottle ginger ale To serve: put 2/3 slush to 1/3 seven-up in each glass or same ratio in punch bowl. III. Mix the following ingredients together and freeze. When slushy, drink as is or mix with 7-up. 10 oz frozen strawberries 7 C water 1 (12oz) can frozen orange jc 2 C tea 1 (12oz) can frozen lemonade 1 1/2 C sugar 3 C light rum ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Perked Punch ** This is a delicious and easy hot punch made in a percolator. Pour into a 30-cup percolator: 48 oz apple juice 48 oz cranberry juice In the basket: 1/4-1/3 cup brown sugar 4 cinnamon sticks 6-8 whole cloves dash salt (optional) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Pina Colada Punch 1-46 oz. can pineapple juice 1-15 oz. can coconut cream 1 tbsp. coconut flavor (Durkee) 1 tbsp. cinnamon 1 1/2 to 2 liters pineapple soda 1 pint vanilla ice cream Chill pineapple juice and soda. Blend first four ingredients in a blender until creamy. (I've found a hand blender works very well since my blender won't hold all of this liquid or you could split it into two batches.) This can be done ahead of time and put back into the fridge until serving time. When your ready to serve, place coconut mixture in punch bowl, add ice cream and allow it to dissolve somewhat. When ice cream has dissolved almost completely, add pineapple soda. Add ice ring and decorate the frothy top of the punch with thin orange slices. Serves about 40. If you wanted to make this alcoholic, cut back a little on the amount of soda and add a bit of rum - I like it with Captain Morgan Spiced Rum. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Pineapple Punsch ** (Serves 2-3) 1 bottle red wine 150 ml strong tea 100 ml pineapple juice 80 ml rum 1 lemon (juice of) 100 g sugar 200 g pineapple pieces 50 ml sherry Put the pineapple pieces in a punch bowl and pour the sherry over them. Chill for 2 hours. Put tea and sugar in a pot, add red wine, lemon juice and rum. Heat but do not boil the mixture. Pour over the pineapple pieces. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Ponche de Pina (Hot Pineapple Punch - Honduras) ** 3 Pineapples 3 c Water 3 Cinnamon sticks 2 ts Whole cloves 2 ts Whole allspice 3/4 c Sugar 1 c Coconut milk 1 qt Light rum Peel pineapples; chop or shread. Add water and let stand overnight. Put in large saucepan with spices, sugar, and coconut milk. Boil for 5 minutes. Strain liquid into large pitcher. Add rum and serve hot. Makes 8-12 servings. Note: If fresh coconut milk is not available, pour sweet milk over shredded coconut. Let stand for several hours. Squeeze through a cloth. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** PORCH CRAWLERS -------------- 2 cans frozen pink lemonade 10 bottles of beer 1 26 oz. bottle of gin/vodka The mixture, because of the beer, tastes sort of like fizzy fruit punch. All my friends really like it but it is *really* potent (as you can probably tell from the ingredients). We all prefer the gin but vodka works just as well. Another solution could be using something like Alcool, but I've never tried that so have no idea how that would go. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Punch 2 cans frozen lemonade concentrate (pink or regular) 2 2 liter bottles of rasberry lime (or just raspberry seltzer) raspberry sherbert to plop on top is optional Empty the frozen lemonade into the punch bowl. Add seltzer & stir! ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** PUNCH 1 1/4 cups water 1 1/2 cups sugar 1 1/2 cups iced water 2 1/2 cups chilled orange juice 1 cup chilled lemon juice 1 cup pineapple juice 1/2cup strawberries slices of lemon and oranges 1 pint ginger ale Stir the 1 1/4 cups water and sugar over medium heat until sugar is dissolved.Bring to boil and boil for 5 mins. Cool pour into screw top jar and chill over night . Just before serving pour into a punch bowl all except ginger ale Now pour ginger ale now put in the fruit. Makes 25 glasses Can be doubled. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Punch #1 2 cans frozen pink lemonade concentrate (don't dilute it) 1.5 litres white grape juice 1.5 litres cranberry juice 750 ml soda water Mix first 3 ingredients ahead of time. Add soda water when you are ready to serve it. Serve over ice. You can add more soda water to suit your taste. Recipe above makes about 35 punch cup sized servings (about 4 oz each) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Punch #2 Try 1:14 grain alcohol (available as everclear in NJ) 1:14 peach schnapps 1:14 peppermint schnapps 2:14 cranberry juice 9:14 bug juice (bottled, not powdered, although kool aid will do) + FRUIT (one pineapple, 8 oranges, 2 lbs strawberries) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Punch #5 ** 2 Btls Champagne 1 Cup Light Corn syrup 1 Btl Club soda 3 Tbl Triple Sec 25 oz Sauterne Pour into punch bowl over ice ring, stir to mix. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Purple Jesus ** Mix equal parts of ginger ale, grape juice, vodka, and grain alcohol. It's called "Purple Jesus." ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Quick Hot Buttered Rum ** With the winter coming around and cold nights starting to get to even us here in California, I think it's time I made a new batch of Hot Rum Batter, as follows: 1 lb unsalted butter 1 lb white sugar 1 lb brown sugar 1 qt good vanilla ice cream Let the butter and ice cream soften, and cream the butter with the sugars. Mix in the ice cream. Put the batter into your freezer and wait for a cold night. When a cold night comes around, get a big mug and put some water on to boil. Get a big dollop, about 2 Tbs, of the batter out of the freezer and into the mug. You may have to stir up the batter a bit since the butter can float to the top of the batter. Add an ounce or two of rum and stir a bit. Add about 8 oz of boiling water and stir a bit more. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Raspberry Cordial ** 2 C. Raspberry juice (thaw raspberries, squeeze through cheesecloth) 2 C. Vodka 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 C. sugar (to taste -- I like it less sweet) Combine all ingredients and stir until sugar is disolved. Store in large bottles for 22 days, then put in gift bottles and seal. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Raspberry Sherbet Punch 1/2 gallon Raspberry Sherbet 2 liters of Ginger Ale 1 33 oz can of pineapple juice Combine all together and serve ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Sangria ** 1 bottle (750 ml) red wine about half cup sugar (to taste) 1 cup orange juice 1 cup lemon juice Cloves and cinnamon sticks to taste Mix all together and put in the refrigerator till cold. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Sangria ** From "Table talk" by Nira Rousso 4-5 Tbl. sugar 2 oranges 1 cup of orange juice 3 apples 1 bottle of dry red wine 2 Tbl cognac 1/2 cup of mandarin peels (optional-if you have untreated ones) 2 cups of soda water ( this means here in Israel: carbonated effervescent -fizzy- water, drunk by galore in summer) 10 ice cubes 1. Peel the apples and cut into small cubes. Peel the oranges, take out the pips and cut them into small cubes. 2. Warm the orange juice, the sugar and the mandarin peels until the sugar dissolves. 3. Mix all the ingredients - except the ice and the soda. The ice and the soda add just before serving. Serves 10 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Sangria - Jim's Delicious 1 bottle inexpensive dry red wine (cabernet sauvignon seems to work the best for me-- usually I use Sutter Home or Torres' Sangre de Toro) 3 oz brandy (I generally use Christian Brothers) 1 large tart green apple (i.e. Granny Smith) 1 large juicy orange 1 large lemon 3/4-1 cups of sugar club soda/bubbly water to taste (try to get a citrus flavored water) Mix the wine, the brandy, and the sugar together. Take the apple, the orange, and the lemon and cut them into as thin slices as possible. Do _not_ peel the fruit. Place the fruit in the wine mixture and stir it around. Try and make sure that as much of the fruit as possible is submerged. Place the mixture in a closed container. Refrigerate for 20-24 hours. No, I am not kidding about the time-- most Sangria recipes call for adding fruit juice to the wine, but this one relies upon the juice that is in the fruit-- and it takes time for osmosis to do its work. Stir occasionally. When ready to serve, do a quick taste of the sangria. It should taste very strong and sweet. If it does not, add a little more brandy and/ or sugar. Then, slowly pour in some of the club soda/bubbly water to cut the sangria to taste. (Usually I only add a little bit of club soda to the mixture, and leave it out so that guests can "cut" the sangria to their own taste.) If worse comes to worse, you can probably let the Sangria recipe rest in the fridge for only 12-14 hours, but it will not be as tasty as it would be otherwise. It is not a good idea, however, to let it wait more than 30 hours or so before serving, because the bitterness from the lemon and orange rinds will begin to take over the flavor of the sangria. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Sangria - Sweet 2 750 ml bottles of Gallo Red Rose (or other sweet red wine. I use Gallo because it is cheap and no one cries when they see what you've done to a bottle of Gallo) 1 cup sugar (more or less, to taste) A variety of apples, oranges, limes, lemons, grapefruit, etc. 2 cans Fresca (adds bubbles and a little grapefruit flavor) Melt the sugar in a couple of cups of hot water. I do this so I don't end up with a lot of undissolved sugar in the end. Cut apples into small chunks (1" or so)the apples absorb the wine the most, so I tend to use a lot of apples. Peel the citrus fruits (lemons and limes are difficult to peel) and break into wedges. Mix the wine, sugar, fruit, and Fresca and put in the fridge for a few hours. I tend to take out the lemons and limes before serving because they get slimy and no one wants to munch on them anyway. Serve in an iced tea glass with a straw and one of those cocktail swords so your guests can get at the fruit without getting their fingers sticky. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Sangria- The World's Best ** (or so my friend, Annye Scherer, once described it) 1.5 liters (2 bottles or one big bottle) of a cabernet sauvignon Get something cheap like Sutter Home or Torres' Sangre de Toro, but don't get a wine so cheap that you wouldn't drink it in its own right. 1 cup of sugar (you may wish to add a little more later) 3-4 oz of plain brandy (I usually use Christian Brothers.) 1 large lemon (with skin) sliced as thinly as possibly 1 large orange (with skin) sliced thinly as possible 1 large tart apple (I usually use granny smith), cut into thin sections. Mix these altogether in a large container, stir, and let sit for 18-24 hours. Yes, I know that's a LONG time, but it's well worth the wait. A much more delightful sangria is produced when the fruit juice blends with the wine by osmmosis than by stirring. (By the way, you should let it sit in the refridgerator during this long interim). When you are ready to drink it 18-24 hours later, stir it up again, and add sugar or brandy to taste-- it should be fairly strong and fairly sweet-- almost syrupy. Then, cut the mixture with some sort of bubbly water-- orange or lemon flavored if possibly-- but plain bubbly water is fine-- until it seems to have a thinner, more wine like consistency. Drink and enjoy. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Sauterne for 30 guests: 12 bottles champagne (or 9 ch. & 3 chablis or sauterne, depending upon how sweet you like things) 12 oz. cognac 6 oz curacao This will give you three servings per guest at 3 oz per punch cup. In each punch bowl, you will put two bottles champagne, one bottle wine, 3 oz. cognac, and 1 1/2 oz. curacao. Mix the cognac and curacao several hours ahead of time. When ready to serve, pour the necessary amount of this mixture over a block of ice or ice mold in a *cold* punch bowl, and add *thoroughly chilled* champagne. Stir and serve at once, WITHOUT LADLING BACK AND FORTH OVER THE ICE, as this will eliminate the bubbles. The first bowl will go very fast, and people will be crushed up against the table holding their punch cups out, waiting for the next bowl to be mixed (no lie, this happened at church a couple of weeks ago!). It is therefore a good idea to have two bowls and two people, working in shifts. The servers must not expect to have a chance to eat or schmooze or do anything but ladle for the duration! ;) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Scandinavian Gl|gg ** 1 liter of "wine" (red port, tawny port, or red wine) 1 liter of "spirits" (vodka, aquavit, or equiv.) 1.5 liter of water 4-5 dl of "sugar" (caramel, brown sugar or plain sugar) Spices: peel of one half orange, torn into pieces approx. 16 cm of cinnamon stick (bark), broken into several pieces 8 green cardamom pods 3 tsp. sliced almonds 16 whole cloves handful of raisins 8 whole allspice In a 4 liter saucepan, bring the water to a small boil, add sugar. When sugar is dissolved, add spices and continue at a small boil for about 15 minutes. Mix in liter of wine. Mix in liter of spirits. Turn burner down to low, cover saucepan, and simmer for 15 minutes. Turn off burner, and let steep for 2-3 hours. Strain off spices and bottle. Spices can be reused once or twice. (I don't recommend twice) How to drink: Warm gl|gg in saucepan. Do not boil. Serve in warmed glasses with a couple raisins. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** SHERBET AND GINGER ALE PUNCH ** This is a super non-alcoholic punch with lots of possible variations. INGREDIENTS (16 cups of punch) 1/2 gallon sherbet (use your favorite flavor or one that com- plements the occasion) 2 quarts ginger ale PROCEDURE (1) Scoop sherbet into punch bowl. Slowly pour ginger ale over the sherbet. (2) Serve. (3) Replenish sherbet and/or ginger ale as needed. NOTES Different sherbet flavors or mixtures of flavors make for many variations. I once made a variation that replaced 1/2 of the ginger ale with lemonade. Super! ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** SIMA (A traditional Finnish May drink) ** [About the units of measurement: dl means deciliter, about half a cup; a Finnish teaspoon is about half the size of those in the US, but a tablespoon is more like the US soup spoon. GB.] Makes about 5 litres. 5 l water 1 1/2 dl sugar 1 1/2 dl brown sugar 1 1/2 dl beer (preferably non-alcohol) 1 lemon 2 teaspoons baking yeast 5-6 raisins/bottle 1 tablespoon sugar/bottle Boil water, sugars, beer and the yellow part of the lemon's peel. Let the mixture cool down. Peel the white part of the lemon's peel carefully and cut the fruit part of the lemon in small pieces and add to sima. Disolve the yeast in a bit of sima and add to sima. Put 5-6 raisins and 1 tablespoon sugar in every bottle. Put sima in bottles and close the bottles carefully. Leave sima in a cold place for a couple of days. Sima is ready when the raisins float. Sima will keep in cold place for 1-2 weeks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Spiced Apple Cider * 1 gallon Apple Cider 4 Cinammon sticks Several allspice cloves 4 star anise several large pieces of orange peel, crumbled 1 tablespoon honey 1 tablespoon lemon juice 4 whole cloves Preparation: 1> Dump all of the spices into a gallon jug of cider. (You might have to drink a glass to make room.) 2> Mix in the honey, a little at a time. Pour in about a teaspoon full, and close the jug and shake it until it dissolves, and keep doing this until the honey is all in. 3> Pour in the lemon juice, and again, shake vigourously. 4> Let it sit overnight. Serving: 1> Shake it vigourously. 2> Pour the cider into a small pot or kettle through a mesh filter (to catch the spices). 3> Heat it over low heat until hot. DO NOT LET IT BOIL!!! 4> Pour it into cups, garnish with fresh cinammon sticks, and drink. It comes out a LOT better if you use fresh, unfiltered (dark) cider. It's still good with the filtered kind, but it's really worth paying extra for the fresh, unfiltered stuff. Also, note that if you buy fresh cider without preservatives, it may start to turn on you a little, so if you want to avoid all alchohol, make sure that your cider is preserved. It also makes a pretty fantastic alchoholic drink if you add a little bit of dark rum or apple brandy. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Spiced Peach Punch ** (Makes 70 ounces) 1 46-ounce can peach nectar 20 ounces orange juice 1/2 cup brown sugar, firmly packed 3 sticks cinnamon broken into 3-inch pieces 1/2 teaspoon cloves 2 tablespoons lime juice Combine peach nectar, orange juice and brown sugar in a large saucepan. Tie cinnamon and cloves in a small cheesecloth bag. Drop into saucepan. Heat slowly, stirring constantly, until sugar dissolves. Simmer 10 minutes. Stir in lime juice. Serve in hot mugs. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Strawberry Bolle ** 3 bottles chilled Moselle 1 bottle chilled Champagne 1 kg (2 pounds) sliced, hulled strawberries 8 tablespoons sugar Sprinkle strawbs with sugar, add one bottle Moselle. Chill for several hours. To serve, pour into large bowl with ice, add the rest of the wine. Serve in small wine glasses. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Strawberry Bolle ** 3 bottles chilled Moselle 1 bottle chilled Champagne 1 kg (2 pounds) sliced, hulled strawberries 8 tablespoons sugar Sprinkle strawbs with sugar, add one bottle Moselle. Chill for several hours. To serve, pour into large bowl with ice, add the rest of the wine. Serve in small wine glasses. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Strawberry Lemonade juice of one lemon 1 T sugar 8-10 ripe strawberries 1 C water Throw everything into a blender and mix until fairly smooth. Serve over ice. Makes one glass. Notes: add more or less strawberries as desired. If the berries aren't extremely ripe you will probably want to add more sugar. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Strawberry Punch 1-10 oz. package of frozen strawberries 1-6 oz. container of frozen lemonade, prepared 1 pint lemon-lime sherbet 1 qt. ginger ale Allow strawberries to thaw for a couple of hours in fridge. Prepare lemonade and chill. Combine all just before serving and mix until sherbet is dissolved. Place ice ring in to keep punch cold. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Strawberry Punch 1 half gallon strawberry sherbet 1 2 liter bottle of 7Up Put the sherbet in a bowl and pour the 7up over the sherbet. Stir until the sherbet is melted. This makes a pretty pink punch. You can use diet soda for a punch that is less sweet. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Sunny Holiday Punch 1 can (46-oz) Dole Pinapple Juice, chilled 1 bottle (28-oz) mineral water or club soda, chilled 1 can (6-oz) frozen orange juice concentrate, thawed 1 lemon or lime, thinly sliced 2 cups fresh or frozen berries 1 bottle (750ml) chilled champagne, optional (Note: I substitute a bottle of 7-UP here) Combine all ingredients in a punch bowl. Another note: I find this punch to be a little on the tart side so I add a tablespoon or 2 of sugar to the mix. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Syllabub 2 cups white wine 3 cups milk 5 Tbsp. grated lemon rind 2 cups light cream 1/3 cup lemon juice 4 egg whites 1-1/2 cups sugar Nutmeg Combine wine, lemon rind, and juice. Stir in 1 cup of the sugar and let stand until sugar dissolves. Combine milk and cream, add wine mixture, and beat with a rotary beater until frothy. Beat egg whites until stiff, add remaining 1/2 cup sugar, a little at a time, beating constantly until whites stand in peaks. Pour wine mixture into punch bowl, top with puffs of egg white, and sprinkle whites with nutmeg. Makes 16 punch cups. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Tea Punch 2 parts brewed aromatic tea (I use Earl Grey), cooled 2 parts apple juice 1 part pineapple juice Combine and serve with ice. Martha suggests combining the tea and apple juice the night before and adding pineapple juice just before serving, but I've done it both ways with no noticeable difference in taste. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Tom and Jerry Punch ** >From "The Joy of Cooking", serves 4 3 eggs, separated 3 tbsp. powdered sugar 1/2 tsp each ground allspice, cinnamon and cloves Brandy Dark Rum Hot coffee, water or milk Grated nutmeg Beat egg whites to a stiff froth. Separately beat egg yolks until light in color, gradually add the powdered sugar and spices. Fold yolk mixture into whites. Divide mixture between four 8 oz. mugs. Add 1/2 shot brandy and 1 shot rum to each mug; fill with hot beverage. Stir well and top with nutmeg. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** TRUCK PUNCH 1 Liter bourbon whiskey 1 Fifth Apple Snapps 1/2 Fifth Cinnamon Snapps 2 Liters Squirt Give yourself a break, use ice. :-) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Vile Green Punch ** Orange Juice Soda water Midori Peach Schnapps ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Wassail Servings: 8 Wassail: 1 qt Apple cider 4 ea Cinnamon sticks 1 ea Whole nutmeg 1/2 c Honey 1/4 c Lemon juice 1 t Lemon peel, grated Floating Cloved Oranges: 3 ea Oranges 3 t Cloves, whole Poke 1 t cloves into each orange for Floating Cloved Oranges. Add cider, seasonings, and Floating Cloved Oranges to slowcooker; heat at least 1/2 hour, and the longer, the better. Orange Stars: cut oranges into 1/2" slices. Stick 5 cloves around slice at equal intervals; cut out wedges between cloves. The result looks kind of like a star. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Wassail (non-alcoholic) ** 1 gallon apple juice or apple cider 2 oranges 2 lemons 1 lime (optional) 1 Tbsp. cloves 1 Tbsp. allspice 2 cinnamon sticks 1 qt. water 1 cup sugar Heat the water to boiling. Cut the lemons and oranges (and lime if using) in half and squeeze the juice into a separate bowl to save, throw the skins and pulp into the boiling water. Add spices and simmer for one hour. Remove the cinnamon sticks and a few cloves and allspice and save to one side. Using a slotted spoon or strainer remove the citrus peels and pulp and the remaining spices. Return the cinnamon sticks and saved spices to the water. Add the apple juice or cider and return to heat. When boiling remove from heat and add the citrus juice and sugar. Simmer very lightly for another 10 minutes and serve. Delicious! This recipe makes the whole house smell wonderful. You may also save the resulting mixture by allowing it to cool completely and returning most of it to the jug the apple juice came in. (Make certain it is really cool though) You can then reheat it a cup or more at a time as needed. It will keep like this in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Wassail ** 1 gal. apple cider 8 cinnamon sticks 1 lemon and 1 orange, washed and sliced 1 T whole cloves 1 T allspice 1 gal. white wine 2 c rum Simmer the nonalcoholic ingredients together for 1-2 hours, then add the wine and rum about 10 minutes before serving (hot). ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Wassail ** Combine in a saucepan and boil for 5 minutes: 1 cup water 4 cups sugar 1 tablespoon grated nutmeg 2 teaspoons ground ginger 1/2 teaspoon ground mace 6 whole cloves 6 allspice berries 1 stick cinnamon Beat until stiff, but not dry: 1 dozen egg whites Beat separately until light in color: 1 dozen egg yolks Fold whites into yolks, using large bowl. Strain sugar and spice mixture into eggs, combining quickly. Bring almost to boiling point separately: 4 bottles sherry 2 cups brandy Incorporate the hot wine with the spice and egg mixture, beginning slowly and stirring briskly with each addition. Toward the end of this process, add the brandy. Serve in mugs with baked apples. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** WASSAIL ** 1 Gallon Apple Cider (your favorite type) 1 lg. can frozen Orange Juice 1 fresh lemon, sliced 1 fresh orange, sliced whole cloves, cinnamon sticks, star anise, allspice This makes 2 batches. Pour 1/2 gallon of cider into a large pot. Add half a can of O.J. (not reconstituted), throw in half the lemon & orange slices, about 1 T. cloves, 4 cinnamon sticks, 4 star anise, and 6 allspice berries. Heat until steaming, serve. If it is going to be sitting for very long, remove the spices & fruit or it will get bitter. Same if you refrigerate left-overs. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Wedding Punch ** Mix in a punch bowl: 2 cups sugar 375 ml (1/2 bottle) Brandy (say, Christian Brothers) 5 bottles champagne (say, Frexinet) Then stir in: 6 oranges, 6 lemons and 6 limes, sliced thin into rounds 1 pineapple, cut into chunks (canned will do, but fresh is better) 1/2 bag of ice in small cubes or crushed (more or less to fit the bowl) Until well mixed. To complete, garnish with strawberries and pour a final bottle of champagne theatrically over the top. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Wine Cooler ** 2 oz. wine 5 oz. lemon-lime soft drink (e.g., 7-UP, Sprite, Slice) ice cubes (opt.) Mix wine and soft drink. Pour into 8 oz glass. Add ice.

The reason the cocktail made it big in the happy '20ies, was the prohibition, when producing and imbibing of alcohol was made illegal. As good as all spirits available was of a rather dubious quality and tasted accordingly. Thus, the bartenders, accomodating as always, started to mix the spirits with various fruit juices and other flavourings to make it more palatable. Later, the cocktail lost its popularity most places, the United States being the main exception. The last few years, however, the cocktail has reclaimed lost ground everywhere, especially in southern Europe and other places that are full of tourists. Cocktails usually consist of three different 'classes' of ingredients. The first, the base, is most often some sort of spirit, like vodka, whiskey, or tequila. Occationally, such as in many punches, some sort of wine is being used as a base. The second, the main flavouring, is added to bring out the aroma of the base and to modify its taste. The main flavouring is often such as Vermouth, various fruit juices, wine, or even eggs or cream. The third, the special flavouring, is added to enhance the taste of the base, and often also adds the colour to the cocktail. Common special flavourings include Grenadine, Blue Curacao, and others. Most cocktails are also decorated in some way, usually with fruit slices, orange peel, cocktail sticks, mint twigs, etc. (see section below). Equipment =-=-=-=-= Many different contraptions are manufactured for the making of cocktails. Some of these are useful, some can be definetely nice to have, and still others are totally and utterly useless. It is up to you to decide exactely what your cocktail equipment should be, but some things are essential. First out of the essentials is the cocktail shaker. There are two basic types of shakers available. A European cocktail shaker is usually made out of metal, or glass with a metal top. It is, basically, a container which holds about half a liter, fitted with a top which closes tightly around the upper edges of the container. This top also has a smaller top, usually fitted with a built-in strainer, through which the shaken cocktail is poured. American shakers, however, consist of two cones about the same size. One is often often made of glass, and the other is metallic. These cones are held together to form a closed container, and the shaken cocktail is poured from either one. Most American shakers do not have built-in strainers, so if you use an American shaker, using a seperate strainer is a good idea. Measures, also known as jiggers, are also essential. Jiggers are most often made of metal, but glass jiggers are common, as well. The standard measurements of a jigger can vary widely, depending on where you are. In the recipies in the following articles, I will use a standard jigger of 30ml (ca 1 fl oz). In addition to the equipment mentioned above, you will find that things like these are nice to have, as well: Ice bucket, jugs, electric blender, bowls, etc. You should also have access to ordinary kitchenware, such as knives, corkscrews, chopping board, etc. You will also need stirrers (also known as swizzle sticks), straws, toothpicks, serviettes and cloths. Glasses =-=-=-= Cocktail glasses come in four different basic types: First, there are the galsses known as rocks glasses, also known as tumblers. These glasses are usually short and broad glasses, with straight or slightly sloping sides. They normally hold about 125ml and are used for spirits with ice, fruit juices and short drinks. Second, there is the highball glass. These glasses are usually of medium width, and are tall with straight or slightly sloping sides. They normally hold between 200 and 300ml and are used for long drinks with ice. Third, the champagne glasses, are of two different kind. The most common, the champagne flute, is a tall and narrow glass with a stem. Champagne flutes have thin-glassed sides, and the long, tapering sides can curve both inward and outward. A champagne flute holds approximately 150ml. The second type of champagne glass is the less-known champagne saucer. The champagne saucer is a broad and shallow glass with a stem. The broadness and shallowness of tha glass make the champagne loose its fizz quickly, and the glass is therefore less popular than it once was. It is still, however, in use, and such cocktails as the Margarita use exclusively such glasses. Fourth is the group known as cocktail glasses. These are the classic cocktail glasses; stemmed and with sharply sloping sides, making it Y-shaped when seen from the side. The classic cocktail glass holds about 90ml and is best suited for short, strong drinks. In addition to these glasses, some drinks, such as the Pina Colada, have special glasses. Unless you are really serious about mixing your cocktails, you don't really need to buy such glasses. Use glasses you already have instead. There are also other glasses available that will work just fine with cocktails. Use your imagination, but remember that plastic glasses (or shakers, jugs, mixing glasses, or other such equipment for that matter) should NEVER be used with cocktails, as it will make the cocktail taste of plastic. A cocktail is supposed to have a refreshing taste, not to taste like the inside of a used plastic bag. Mixing a Cocktail =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Not all cocktails are made in the same manner. Just as the ingredients may vary, there are several ways in which to mix a cocktail. The most frequently used methods are the following: - Shaking: The cocktail is mixed by hand in a cocktail shaker. The shaker is first filled three quarters with ice, preferably cubes, as crushed ice will tend to melt and dilute the cocktail. The ingredients are then poured on top of the ice, in order of alcohol content (highest first). When shaking a cocktail, hold the shaker in both hands, one hand on the top and the other supporting the base of the shaker, and shake vigorously. When water has begun condensing on the outside of the shaker, the cocktail is sufficiently chilled, and the cocktail should immediately be strained into the glass. In general, shaking creates a colder cocktail than stirring does, but also a more cloudy one. - Stirring: The cocktail is stirred with a glass or metal rod in a mixing glass, before the cocktail is strained into a glass. As with shaking, crushed ice should not be used, and water condensing on the outside shows that the cocktail is finished. - Blending: An electric blender is used to mix fruit juices, alcohol, fruit, etc. Blending is an excellent way of mixing ingredients which do not blend easitly in any other way. Blend the cocktail till it has reached a smooth consistency. If the recipe requires ice, add crushed ice last, but be careful not to add too much, as the cocktail may be watered down. Blending is a much disputed method of mixing a cocktail, and in general, blending should be avoided unless the recipe demands it. - Building: When building a cocktail, the ingredients are poured into the glass in which the cocktail will be served. Usually, the ingredients are floated on top of each other, but occationally, a swizzle stick is put in the glass, allowing the ingredients to be mixed. Decorating Cocktails =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Almost all cocktails are decorated in one way or another, most often with some kind of fruit, but no matter the exact decoration, cocktail sticks are almost always invaluable. Cocktail sticks come in two types; Wooden and plastic. Wooden sticks are most often used, and are suited for just about any kind of cocktail, but they cannot be reused. plastic sticks, however, should be carefully used, as they tend to give the cocktail a slightly artificial appearance. Unlike wooden sticks, plastic ones can be reused, but should be carefully washed and boiled first. Cocktail sticks are, whatever the type, used for spearing slices of fruit, cherries, and just about anything else you care to decorate your cocktails with. Straws are also essential and go well with highballs. Straws should not be reused. The traditional cocktail garnish is, however, the red Maraschino cherries. These are used in just about any kind of cocktail, and are now also available in green, yellow and blue. In addition to this, slices of fruit, strips of orange or lemon peel, mint twigs, etc. can also be used. One often used method of decorating cocktails is that which is called frosting. Frosting leaves an edge of sugar, salt, cocoa, or any other fine powder, on the rim of the glass. There are several ways to frost glasses, and one of the most frequently used of them is this: Rub the rim of the glass with a slice of orange or lemon, then submerge the rim in sugar or salt (or any other powder), just so that it lines the top of the rim. Other methods use egg white or other substances for 'gluing' the powder to the glass. For a more coclorful frosting, use small drops of food coloring in the powder. With some cocktails, such as the Margarita, frosting is a 'standard' decoration. Bar Mixxes =-=-=-=-=- Barmixes have NOTHING to do with cocktails!!!!!!! Cocktails contain fresh fruit juices, some alcoholic beverages, etc. Barmixes contain industrial waste. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cocktail: Afterglow 1 part Grenadine 4 parts Orange Juice 4 Parts Pineapple juice Mix.

For 1 serving place 1/3 cup dry mixture in cup, add boiling water and stir. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cocoa: Hot Chocolate You start with 3 cups instant nonfat dry milk, 2 cups (12 oz) chocolate chips and 1 1/2 cups miniature marshmallows (if you like...I certainly do. :). Whirl half the milk and half the chips in a food processor or blender until finely ground. Take care not to grind past that or the mix will clump. Do the same with the other halves of milk and chips, put everything in a bowl and stir in the marshmallows. Package in an airtight container (can be stored up to 6 months). When using, just mix to taste with boiling water. What makes this recipe great is that you can vary it so many ways. You can use any flavor of baking chips, be they semisweet, milk, mint or white chocolate. You can use half peanut-butter or butterscotch chips. You can add in flavorings like coffee powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, cardamom, or orange peel. My personal favorite mix is Malted Milk Chocolate, which calls for milk chocolate baking chips and 1 1/2 cups of malted milk powder substituting for 1 1/2 cups of the nonfat dry milk. YUM!!! B^) One note--the original recipe warned against using either orange peel or malt powder with mint chips. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cocoa: Hot Chocolate Here is the best Hot Chocolate recipe I know, and love. I got it from the Frugal Gourmet cooks American- Hot Chocolate to Die For a.k.a Liquid Chocolate Suicide. One 12 oz. chocolate bar ( I like using Lindt chocolate bars ). 1 teaspoon butter ( NOT margarine ). 1/2 teaspoon vanilla. Melt the above in a double boiler. When just smooth stir in: 1 cup cream of Half-and-Half. Makes ONE serving. :-) Serve in the smallest mugs you can find to all your friends. Top with freshly whipped cream, made from left over cream, and A mini- marshmellow. WARNING: This stuff can kill you if you drink it too often. The Surgeon General recommends at most once a month for safe for consumtion. BEWARE: The Last Drop. :-) This is really great but it is _VERY_ rich if you make it with cream.

Coffee should never be merely the beverage at a meal. Coffee shoul be the center of any sit-down, if not the ONLY thing consumed. The odd doughnut or slice of cheesecake is allowed, though not prefered. Coffee must be drank from a porcelin mug, that must be larger than a dixie cup. The main reason that styrofoam and plastic just don't feel right, and more importantly, your spoon (which must be metal) will not "clink" properly through the various stages of stirring unless porcelin is used. The mug mist be large so that you do not need to refill it too frequently, and so that stirring may properly take place without spillage. Stirring occurs in very distinct stages. First a rotary swirling which makes the coffee form a small whirlpool and dip slightly in the center. Over ambition at this stage will cause spillage over the side-- something to avoid and to caution beginners of. Next, the cross-stroke, with follows a chord form one side of the mug to the other, passing roughly through the mug's geometric center, and which is generally made towards you so that over-ambition at this stage will slop coffee on you and not your comapanion. That cross-stroke creates random eddies in the coffee and effect proper mixing of the cream or sugar, or atleast stirs up the sediments. Finally the removal. The spoon should be tapped lightly on the rim of the mug, two or three times to knock off any large drops. DO NOT lick spoon to remove final drops. Spoon will leave a stain whereever you place it, so place it accordingly. Companionship is the most overlooked part of drinking coffee. At its finest coffee is never consumed alone. However the proper companion is important. They should not talk too much, nor require that you talk too much. Talking limits one's ability to savour the moment and the brew. If silences are embarrasing between you and someone, do not drink coffee with them. If looking blankly at someone, or if being looked blankly over a mug bothers either of you, do not drink coffee together. Never drink coffee with someone drinking tea-- they are COMPLETELY INCOMPATIBLE experiences. Coffee should be strong. Hot, brown colored water does not coffee make. But this does not mean it should taste like kerosene-- coffee should be smooth, almost like melted, unsweetened chocolate. There is no such thing as good instant coffee. Nor will decaffinated coffee ever hack it. Also, sugar should always be used to sweeten-- never some artificial placebo. How much fat can one lump of sugar slap on your thighs?-- use the real stuff, because deep down you know nothing tastes the same. And finally where to go with the perfect companion to drink this, hopefully, not completely repulsive cup of something they're calling coffee. The place must exist cafe style. Lots of small tables. Little oraganization. There should be a light buzz of conversation around you. Enough indistinct noise to cover the sound of you breathing, but not enough to cover the "clinks" of the removal stage of stirring. Well lit. Airy. Coffee is a private experience that can only be properly appreciated in a public place. If there aren't other people around who are screwing thier coffee experience up completely you do not realize how wonderful yours is. Always exhale after finishing a cup and enjoy the heat and flavor of your breath. Always exhale after finishing a cup and enjoy the heat and flavor of your breath. Lastly, if you are a man, then remember that just because your well- sized, porcelin mug has a handle doesn't mean you have to use it. Assuming you have fairly large hands you can merely grip the mug near the top with the tips of your thumb and fore- and middlefinger, with the ringfinger draped around the handle so that you know where it is and don't bop yourself in the nose with it, and drink from the mug that way. Women must always use the handle, and putting two fingers through the hole is allowed. Sexist as it may sound, women and men approach coffee and food in general in different manners, ie, civilized versus "what's the extra fork for?". -----------------------------------------------------------------== Coffee: * Coffee tasting terminology defined ---------------------------------- The following information is reproduced from a brochure available at Starbucks (Seattle, Chicago, Portland OR, and more...) It appears here with permission. Modulo typos, the information here is verbatim, except I left out a long description of the >30 types of coffees you can buy from Starbucks. If you want a copy of this brochure, or one of three others they have put out for coffee education, you can call them at 1-800-445-3428. (or w/in WA, (206) 447-1575) Coffee tasting terminology ranges from easily understandable to highly technical, and some of the more esoteric terms may be a little difficult to decipher. This short vocabulary list explains some basic phrases that will help increase your understanding of fine coffees. THE BASICS Flavor, acidity, and body are the three fundamental tasting terms. Flavor is the total impression of aroma, acidity and body. It can be used in a general sense ("this coffee is flavor- ful"), or with specific attributes in mind ("this coffee has a flavor reminiscent of chocolate"). Acidity is the sharp, lively quality of all high-grown cof- fees. Acid is not the same as bitter or sour, and has noth- ing to do with objective pH factors. Acidity is the brisk, snappy quality which makes coffee refreshing and palate- cleansing. Body is the tactile impression of the weight of the brewed beverage in the mouth. It may range from watery and thin, through light, medium and full, to buttery or even syrupy in the case of some Indonesian varieties. OTHER USEFUL TERMS Aroma is the odor or fragrance of brewed coffee. Bouquet is a less frequently used term, and refers only to the smell of coffee grounds. Aroma is often distinctive and complex. Terms used to describe aroma include: caramelly (candy or syrup-like), carbony (for dark roasts), chocolaty, fruity, floral, herbal, malty (cereal-like), rich (over-used), rounded, spicy. Bitter is a basic taste perceived primarily at the back of the tongue. Dark roasts are intentionally bitter, but bitterness is more commonly caused by overextraction (too little coffee at too fine a grind). Bitter is not a synonym for sour. Bland is the pale, insipid flavor often found in low-grown coffees. Underextracted coffee (made with too little coffee or too coarse a grind) is also bland. Briny is a salty sensation caused by application of exces- sive heat often brewing. You'll recognize it as the fami- liar smell of "truck stop" coffee. Earthy is often used to describe the spicy, "of the earth" taste of Indonesian coffees. Carried to an extreme, as in the case of the cheap filler coffees used in commercial blends, earthy can become dirty, an obviously undesirable sensation caused by poor processing techniques like drying beans on the ground. Exotic refers to a coffee with unusual aromatic and flavor notes, such as floral, berry, and sweet spice-like quali- ties. Coffees from East Africa and Indonesia often have such characteristics. Mellow is a term for well balanced coffee of low-to-medium acidity. Mild denotes a coffee with harmonious, delicate flavor. Fine, high- grown Latin American coffee is often described as mild. It is also a coffee trade term for any arabica coffee other than those from Brazil. Soft describes low-acid coffees such as Indonesians, that may also be called mellow or sweet. Sour is a primary taste perceived mainly on the posterior sides of the tongue, and is characteristic of light-roasted coffees. Spicy refers to an aroma or flavor reminiscent of a particu- lar spice. Some Indonesian arabicas, especially aged cof- fees, evoke an association with sweet spices like cardamom. Others, such as Guatemala Antigua, are almost peppery. Strong technically refers to the degree of presence of vari- ous taste defects and virtues, or to the relative proportion of coffee solubles to water in a given brew. In popular use, it's often the assertive flavor of dark-roasted beans. It is also incorrectly associated with high caffeine con- tent. In fact, caffeine is actually highest in bland canned coffees, due to the large percentage of high-caffeine robusta coffees they typically contain. Sweet is used as a general term for smooth, palatable cof- fee, free from defects and harsh flavors. Tangy is a darting sourness, almost fruit-like in nature, related to wininess. A fine high-grown Costa Rican coffee is frequently tangy. Wild describes a coffee with extreme flavor characteristics. It can be a defect or a positive attribute, and denotes odd, racy nuances of flavor and aroma. The textbook example is Ethiopia Harrar, a coffee which nearly always exhibits such flavors. Winy is a desirable flavor reminiscent of fine red wine. The contrast between fruit-like acidity and smooth body creates flavor interest. Kenyan coffees are a classic exam- ple of winy coffee flavor. Coffee flavor and aroma may be classified according to geo- graphic origin. Coffees, like wine grapes, get much of their flavor from the specific growing conditions and preparation methods of each producing region. Each region has common characteristics that you can learn to recognize. COFFEE FAMILIES Central and South American coffees are generally light-to-medium bodied, with clean lively flavors. These are the most popular varieties Starbucks sells, and their balance and consistency make them the foundation of good coffee blending an well. This category includes coffees like Colombia, Costa Rica Tres Rios, Guatemala Antigua and Mexico. Kona, though geographically a product of the Pacific islands, falls within this Latin American range of taste and aroma. East African coffees are unique and under-appreciated. They often combine the sparkling acidity of the best Central Americans with unique floral or winy notes, and typically are medium-to-full bodied. These coffees are found in the morning cup of nearly every professional coffee taster. The category includes Kenya, Ethiopia Sidamo and Yergacheffe and Ethiopia Harrar. Indonesian coffees are at the opposite end of the spectrum from Latin American coffees. Usually full-bodied and smooth, low in acidity, and often possessing earthy and exotic taste elements. Their fullness and depth make them an important "anchor" component of choice blends like Gold Coast and Yukon Blend. This group includes Estate Java, Sumatra Boengie, Papua New Guinea and Sulawesi. Dark Roasts use coffees of varying geographic origins to provide a specific range of flavors, from the caramel spice of Espresso, to the smoky tang of Italian Roast, to the pungent roastiness of French Roast. The difference at Star- bucks is using specific, varietal-quality coffees in each dark roast blend. Blends combine varietal tastes to create greater complexity and completeness. Typically, a blend might play off Central American acidity with Indonesian smoothness, or spice up a delicate varietal with the tang of a dark roast. Blending, at its best, is high art, offering a unity in diversity which few straight coffees can match. Some roasters use the opportunity to dump low-grade filler coffees into the mix, to "extend" the blend along with their profit margins. At Starbucks, we blend according to taste, using premium quality beans to create a balanced brew, har- monious in body, acidity and aroma, seeking an overall fla- vor that is greater than the sum of its parts. Decaffeinated coffees are growing in popularity and--we are pleased to note--in quality and availability, as well. Some find the effects of too much caffeine unpleasant; others are looking for a hot cup to enjoy before bedtime. Whatever the reason, Starbucks is here to ensure that these deserving souls are not condemned to drink the thin, flavorless decaf- feinated blends sold in supermarkets. We are proud to offer a complete selection, both in water and traditional processes, in regular and dark roasts. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Coffee: Concentrated Coffee >From the book "Coffee" by Kenneth Davids Take one pound of your favorite coffee, regular grind and put it in a glass bowl Add 8 cups of cold water Poke the floating coffee down into the water so all the grounds are wet Let the bowl stand in a cool, dark place for 10 to 20 hours (depending on how strong you want the concentrate) When the brewing period is over, use a large coffee cone and filter to filter the concentrate into an airtight bottle and store in the refrigerator. For hot coffee, use 1 to 2 ounces per cup. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Coffee: Dandelion Root "Coffee" (4 cups, filter coffee maker) 3 1/4 tsp. dandelion root (roasted, ground fine) 1/4 tsp. cinnamon dash nutmeg -~-~-~-~-~- (5 cups, plastic perk-type pot for microwaving) 2 tblsp. dandelion root (roasted, med grind) 1/4 tsp cinnamon dash nutmeg Cook on high in microwave for 7 mins. -----------------------------------------------------------------== Coffee: Don's Cappuchino One double espresso. An equal amount of frothed milk. two teaspoon hershey's cocoa. one teaspoon sugar-in-the-raw. The Sunday NY Times Crossword Puzzle. One cold winter Sunday Afternoon. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Coffee: Espresso Get some strong coffee beans (preferably espresso) and grind them corsely. (Fine will work too, but it's a pain in the end). Take the grounds, dump them in cold water, stir it up, and stick it in the fridge. The next day, most of the grounds will have risen to the surface. Get a spoon and remove as much as you can. Then, pour the rest through cheese cloth. That's it. Now, when we made it, the proportions were 6 lbs coffee to 5 gallons of water. When I make it at home, i use 2 cups of coffee to a standard pitcher of water. It's safer to use extra coffee grounds 'cause you can always dilute it. Also, you can add some vanilla to the stuff. Though, what i do at home, is to mix espresso beans with amaretto beans. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Coffee: Flavored Coffees Makes 10-12 cups with these coffees: Cinnamon - Place 1/2" of cinnamon stick in a coffee grinder, grind for a few seconds and then add coffee beans and process to your preference. Orange - I dry strips or orange peel (the zest only) and put 1/2 of strip in the coffee grinder with the beans, typically it works out to be about 1/10 to 1/12 of the entire orange zest. Mocha - 1/8 t of cocoa powder in the coffee grinds, be careful too much cocoa will clog the coffee filter. -----------------------------------------------------------------== Coffee: Frappe' (Greek Iced Coffee) 1/2 C. strong coffee. 1/2 C. milk (non-fat dry milk and water works fine) 1-2 t. sugar, honey, whatever Mix together. Blend at highest blender speed for about 1 minute. Pour into a glass and drink with a straw. Notes: - This works best if everything is cold (if you make fresh coffee, mix it with the milk and let it sit in the fridge for 1/2 hour. -If it is not frothy, add more milk, or even just some more milk powder. -The froth gradually turns to liquid at the bottom of the glass, so you will find that you can sit and drink this for about 1/2 hour, with more iced coffee continually appearing at the bottom. Very refreshing. -----------------------------------------------------------------== Coffee: Frothing Milk for Cappucchino I used to have problems getting milk steamed just right using the steam tube on my espresso machine. I've devised a foolproof way of getting perfect frothed milk: Measure about a cup of milk (I've used 1%, 2%, and whole milk successfully) into a blender. Whirl until you've got a fair amount of foam (about five seconds). Pour into a microwaveable container. Nuke on high power for about five seconds. It really works! ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Coffee: Iced Coffee 1/4 cup instant coffee granules 1/4 cup sugar or equivalent sweetener 1/4 cup hot water 4 cups cold milk Mix together until coffee and sugar is dissolved. Add milk. Shake well. Using a blender or milk shake maker produces a very foamy drink. -----------------------------------------------------------------== Coffee: Iced Coffee Fillip ** 2 teaspoons Kahlua cooled strong coffee Mix together in a glass and chill before serving. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Coffee: Irish Coffee (from Friendly Foods) 4t unsalted mirin 1C soy milk 1t lime juice 1/2C grain coffee 1C boiling water 2C unsalted mirin Whisk together mirin, soy milk and lime juice and set aside. Just before serving, combine grain coffee, boiling water and mirin and pour into mugs. To add the 'cream', hold a spoon upside down just over the surface of the liquid and gently pour on 1/4 of the 'cream'. -----------------------------------------------------------------== Coffee: Masala Chah (Indian tea) ** Masala Cha...Microwave version, courtesy of Julie Sahni's new book, Moghul Microwave. 3.5 cups water 1 3 inch piece cinnammon, broken into pieces 8 green or white cardamon pods, crushed 3 whole cloves 1/2 by 3 inch strip of fresh or dried orange peel 5 fresh basil leaves 2 heaping teaspoons leaf tea, or 3 bags orange pekoe or Darjeeling Pour water into an 8 cup glass measure. Heat uncovered, at 100% power in 700 watt microwave for 7 minutes, or until water comes to a boil. Add all ingredients. Cook uncovered for 2 minutes, or until color of tea comes out. Remove from oven and pour into a warmed teapot. Serve tea strained into cups and pass milk and sweetener as desired. Variation To make 1 cup classic spiced tea, combine 1 cup water with 1 inch piece cinnammon, 2 whole cardamon cloves, 1 whole clove, 1/2 by 1 inch piece orange peel, 1 basil leaf and 1 heaping teaspoon leaf tea or 1 teabag into 2 cup measure. Cook uncovered on high for 2 minutes. or until water boils. Serve as suggested above. Presentation Bonus: Peel an orange in a spiral, sticking cloves in the peel. Pour a small amount of whiskey down the spiral. Ignite. -----------------------------------------------------------------== Coffee: Masala Chai (Spicey Indian Tea) Ingredients 3 - 4 Tea Spoons/4 Teabags of good tea (Darjeeling/Orange Pekoke/Lipton) A chunk of dry ginger (or fresh ginger if dry isn't handy) 3 - 4 cardmom pods, crushed (See Note below) 3 Cloves Small piece of cinnamon A Tsp of SOANP (I don't know the name. Can be found at Indian grocers. Also indian restaurants keep this for your pleasure after dinner Looks like cummin seeds) 1 or 2 whole black peppers (optional) Sugar to taste Milk (atleast Vitamin D, low fat won't do) Bring 2 cups of water to boil (microwave or otherwise) Add all the ingredients and boil again for about 15 seconds. Let stand for a minute. Warm milk in a pot. Filter tea into cups. Add milk and sugar. That's IT. Note: Since cardmom is expensive, I peel them and add the skin to my stock of tea leaves. This gives a distinct aroma. Of course you boil the skin with water. If you don't like to spend much time, mix all the spices and coarsley grind them. Boil water and add tea and a tsp of this ground spices. Rest is as above. -----------------------------------------------------------------== Coffee: Melya Espresso Honey Unsweetened cocoa Brew espresso; for this purpose, a Bialetti-style stovetop will work. In a coffee mug, place 1 teaspoon of unsweetened powdered cocoa; then cover a teaspoon with honey and drizzle it into the cup. Stir while the coffee brews; this is the fun part. The cocoa seems to coat the honey without mixing, so you get a dusty, sticky mass that looks as though it will never mix. Then all at once, presto! It looks like dark chocolate sauce. Pour hot espresso over the honey, stirring to dissolve. Serve with cream (optional). I have never served this cold but I imagine it would be interesting; I use it as a great hot drink for cold days, though, so all my memories are of grey skies, heavy sweaters, damp feet and big smiles. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Coffee: Russian Tea (Olde English Recipe) 8 cups water 5 tea bags 1 cup sugar 1/2 of a large can of OJ probably about 16oz (not concentrated) 1/2 small can of pineapple juice (about 8ox, again not concentrated) 3T lemon juice 1 T whole cloves First make tea in the water. Then add all the other stuff. SIMMER at least 1/2 hour. Makes a nice smell in the kitchen at Christmas parties. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Coffee: Russian Tea Mix 1/4 cup instant tea with 1 cup Tang (powdered orange drink). Add 1 T cinnamon and 1/4 cup sugar. Adjust mixture to your taste. To make a cup of Russian Tea add about 2 T mixture to a large glass of water. Variations: - Use other powdered fruit drinks (eg. lemonade or Kool-Aide) or add different spices (eg. ground cardamon, ginger, mint). - Avoid the caffine and sugar by using decaf'd instant tea and your favorite sweetening chemicals. - Make it from fresh ingredients: fresh brewed tea, real fruit juice. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Coffee: Russian Tea 3 cups Tang 1 cup Instant Iced Tea Mix 1 pkg (scoop) Instant Lemon Drink Mix (powdered lemonade) 1 tsp cinnamon 1 tsp ground cloves Two teaspoonfulls to one cup of VERY hot water.. Does wonders for sore throats, contains LOTS of vitamin C, and is delicious to boot. *smile* -----------------------------------------------------------------== Coffee: Spiking coffee Incidentally, a pinch of cinnamon is indeed a nice addition to coffee but true heaven is a cardamom seed :-) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Coffee: Thai Coffee Makes 1 8-cup pot of coffee 6 tablespoons whole rich coffee beans, ground fine 1/4 teaspoon ground coriander powder 4 or 5 whole green cardamom pods, ground Place the coffee and spices in the filter cone of your coffee maker. Brew coffee as usual; let it cool. In a tall glass, dissolve 1 or 2 teaspoons of sugar in an ounce of the coffee (it's easier to dissolve than if you put it right over ice). Add 5-6 ice cubes and pour coffee to within about 1" of the top of the glass. Rest a spoon on top of the coffee and slowly pour whipping cream into the spoon. This will make the cream float on top of the coffee rather than dispersing into it right away. -----------------------------------------------------------------== Coffee: Thai Iced Coffee ** Strong, black ground coffee Sugar Evaporated (not condensed) milk Cardamom pods Prepare a pot of coffee at a good European strength (Miriam Nadel suggests 2 tablespoons per cup, which I'd say is about right). In the ground coffee, add 2 or 3 freshly ground cardamom pods. (I've used green ones, I imagine the brown ones would give a slightly different flavor.) Sweeten while hot, then cool quickly. Serve over ice, with unsweetened evaporated milk (or heavy cream if you're feeling extra indulgent). To get the layered effect, place a spoon atop the coffee and pour the milk carefully into the spoon so that it floats on the top of the coffee. -----------------------------------------------------------------== Coffee: Thai Iced Tea (from Keo's Thai Cuisine, by Keo Sananikone ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ten Speed Press, ISBN 0-89815-183-X) 1/4 c strong Thai tea 1/2 c boiling water 2 t sweetened condensed milk Ice cubes Mint leavs (for garnish) Combine Thai tea (i.e., the powder), boiling water, and sweetened condensed milk; stir until blended. Pour into 2 tall glasses filled with ice cubes. Garnish with mint leaves. Makes 2 servings. -----------------------------------------------------------------== Coffee: Thai Iced Tea Thai iced tea is made from a mixture of ingredients called "chaa". You can get it at some Asian food stores. There is also Thai iced coffee, made from a mixture called "oliang". Oliang is usually made from coffee beans, roasted tamarind seeds, roasted corn, and sesame seeds. Sorry, I don't know what goes into chaa, except that one of the ingredients is yellow food coloring. The following recipe will work for either Thai Iced Coffee or Thai Iced Tea: 6 Tbs. oliang or chaa 6 cups boiling water 2 - 3 Tbs. sugar 1/4 - 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk 1/2 cup evaporated milk Finely grind the oliang or chaa mix in a coffee mill. Place in a filter and drip as you would regular coffee. While still hot, add the sugar and condensed milk. Let cool. Add evaporated milk and serve over ice. -----------------------------------------------------------------== Coffee: THAI ICED TEA 3.5 c water 1/3 c Thai tea (no other explanation for tea type) 1/3 c sugar 1/3 c condensed milk 1/2 c half & half Heat the water to boiling, then using four layers of cheesecloth as a filter, pour the water through the tea _four_ times (Why? I don't know; I plan on steeping the tea until it reaches the right color.). Set the tea aside to cool. Mix together the remaining ingredients. Fill glasses with crushed ice; pour milk/sugar mixture about 1/2 full into each glass; carefully pour cooled tea over top to preserve separation. Serve. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Coffee: THAI ICED TEA This is from the book "Thai Home-Cooking From Kamolmal's Kitchen" by William Crawford and Kamolmal Pootaraksa. Thai tea is packed in 1 lb. cellophane packets; it has the texture somewhat like instant coffee and a faint vanilla aroma. (I buy it at an Asian market in town.) 1/2 c Thai tea 3 c Water 14 oz Sweetened condensed milk 1 1/2 c Evaporated milk or half-and-half 1. Place the tea in a bag of muslin or other fine cloth. Bring the water to a rapid boil, pour it over the tea, and let it steep for 3 min. Pour the liquid back through the tea 5 or 6 times until it is a deep orange color and is flavored strongly. 2. Strain the tea well, pressing out all the liquid that you can. Add the sweetened condensed milk to the warm liquid and mix it well. Allow the mixture to cool to room temp. 3. Just before serving, fill each glass with cracked ice and fill it half to three quarters full of tea. Add evaporated milk or half-and-half to fill the glass, and stir well. Variation: If you prefer a darker colored and stronger flavored tea, substitute 3/4 cup granulated sugar for the sweetened condensed milk. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- The recipe for Thai coffe is exactly the same as above except you use 1/3 c of Thai coffee in place of the tea. -----------------------------------------------------------------== Coffee: Turkish Coffee 1. Put some arabica beans, some granulated sugar, and a non-trivial number of cardamom seeds into the grinder and reduce to a fine powder. 2. Put powder into an ibrik (a middle-eastern copper brewing kettle, roughly triangular in shape with a long handle) together with some water. 3. Bring to a boil (just until it spills over the sides of the ibrik and deposits some grounds on the range burner). Let cool for several minutes. Repeat this step twice more (enjoying that oh! so distinctive burned 4. Pour into tiny cups, let stand a minute or two for the grounds to settle into a sludge at the bottom, and sip the sweet brew until mouth region encounters aforementioned sludge. 5. Get next section of Sunday paper, and repeat items 1-4. By Sunday noon, a tremendous buzz will have happened, and you'll be ready to conquer the world. Adendum: You forgot "bang the ibrik against the side of the range", which comes right after removing it from the flame when it boils over. I'm not sure but I think you're supposed to do this either 1 or 3 times on each iteration. -----------------------------------------------------------------== Coffee: Vietnamese Iced Coffee Same coffee (see Melya) Sweetened condensed (not evaporated) milk Ice Make even stronger coffee, preferably in a Vietnamese coffee maker. (This is a metal cylinder with tiny holes in the bottom and a perforated disc that fits into it; you put coffee in the bottom of the cylinder, place the disc atop it, then fill with boiling water and a very rich infusion of coffee drips slowly from the bottom.) If you are using a Vietnamese coffee maker, put two tablespoons of sweetened condensed milk in the bottom of a cup and put the coffee maker on top of the cup. If you are making espresso or cafe filtre (the infusion method where you press the plunger down through the grounds after several minutes of infusion), mix the sweetened condensed milk and the coffee any way you like. When the milk is dissolved in the coffee (yes, dissolved *is* the right word here!), pour the combination over ice and sip. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Coffee: Yogi Tea By Siri Singh Sahib Harbhajan Singh Khalsa Yogiji For each cup of tea, begin with 10 ounces of water. Bring the water to a rapid boil and add (for each cup): 3 whole cloves 4 whole green cardamon pods 4 whole black peppercorns 1/2 stick cinnamon 1 slice fresh gingerroot (optional) Let this boil, covered, for 15-20 mins (longer for larger amounts of tea). Then add: 1/4 teaspoon of any black tea 1/2 cup cold dairy milk (per cup of liquid) If you wish to make more than one quart, you will need less spices. A good amount of spices to use for 2 quarts of Yogi Tea, is about 20 each of cardamom pods, peppercorns and 15 each of cloves. For cinnamon, use about 3 sticks, and 1 T of black tea. Boil for at least 30 mins. Use 1 quart of milk. --------- Yogi Tea variations Make a jar of spices cinnamon, cloves, cardamon, gingerroot (dry), peppercorns, cherry bark, fennel seeds, anise, almonds, carob, crystal malt... Use about 2 T spice mix to a quart of water. Black tea and milk are optional. Add some honey when cooking. Yogi Tea is also sold in your local health food store tea section. ==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-== Other: Atole con Honholi This isn't a recipe. It is an interpretation of a demo a friend of mine did for me. Atole is gruel. This comes out about like thin malt-o-meal. You drink it. Incidentally, I would say that America has a love affair with vanilla. There is vanilla flavoring in just about everything remotely sweet. Now Mexico uses cinnamon alot. Even in the chocolate. And in Atole con Honholi (spelling uncertain my friend doesn't write stuff down). .5 C sesame seeds (honholi), toast in a pan til just turning golden grind in a blender until mealy, not floury 4 C water or milk .5 C piloncillo (or dark brown sugar) or to taste. This is pretty sweet. .25 masa harina (more or less, depending on how thick you want it) 1 tsp cinnamon Bring seame seeds, water(or milk) brown sugar and cinnamon to a boil. Sprinkle in masa harina (corn flour to you guys north of here)(thats *flour* not meal) and stir constantly. Add more flour if you want it thicker. Simmer for 5 minutes or so. Drink warm. The last time I made this I toasted the masa harina lightly. Gave it a little bit 'nuttier' flavor I think. And I prefer milk to water. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other: BANANA MILK SHAKE 10 cl (3.38 oz) Milk, cold 4 cl (1.35 oz) Orange juice 2 tea spoon Sugar syrup half Banana, mashed Blend very well, preferably in a household mixer. Serve in a wine glass, garnish with whipped cream and a piece of banana. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other: Banana Strawberry Shake 1/2 lb frozen strawberries 1 frozen banana And either: 2 cups apple juice (the fresher the better) for a daquiri-type drink, OR: 1 cup plain yogurt 1 cup milk and honey (to taste) for more of a protein-shake thang. Blend all together in a blender until smooth. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other: Banana-Orange Yogurt Shake Basic ingredients: 1 c. plain yogurt 1 ripe banana 1/2 c. orange juice Add-ins: Any fruit or combination of fruits you like - such as a handful of ripe berries, a peach and 1/2 a mango, 1/2 c. pineapple and 1/4 c. coconut, a kiwifruit and some strawberries, etc. Toss all into the blender and blend until smooth. If you like it icy, blend in a couple of ice cubes or use frozen fruit. -----------------------------------------------------------------== Other: Champurrado This is a traditional Mexican drink. As I understand it, the Mayans had cacao, and used it, but never sweetened it into the chocolate that we have today. Chocolate came about when the Conquistadores brought the cacao to Europe and it was sweetened there. Champurrado (pronounced chahm-poor-RAH-thoh -- with a rolled "r") a.k.a. Chocolate Atole (pronounced "choh-koh-LAH-tay ah-TOE-lay") ...the "o" is like the "o" in "choke"... Ingredients: 1/2 c corn flour (masa harina) *not* cornmeal 1 1/4 c cold water 1 3/4 c boiling water 2 squares unsweetened chocolate (1 oz each) 1/2 c firmly packed brown sugar (change to taste) 1 t vanilla 1/2 t cinnamon 1/4 t nutmeg dash of salt (optional) Procedure: Mix corn flour with cold water; strain mixture into boiling water. Stir until smooth. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to medium; stir in remaining ingredients. Cook and stir constantly until mixture thickens, about five minutes. Pour into cups; serve hot. Notes: Use a cloth to strain with: I built up a nice collection of strainers as I tried to get something fine enough to strain out the flour! You want some of the flour in there, but mostly corn-flour-flavored water. I also found it useful to let the cold water corn flour mixture sit a bit to let the water get as flavorful as possible. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other: COOL COW 2 cups milk 1/2 tsp almond extract 4 tsp honey or maple Place all ingredients in the blender jar - cover and whiz on medium speed until well blended.

Pour in one tall, 2 medium or 3 small glasses and drink up. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other: Egg Cream In a glass: 1. Add about 1/2" of chocolate syrup (U-Bet is the recommended brand). 2. Add about 1.5-2" of milk. 3. Squirt in seltzer. (Lots of places now sell those big plastic bottles with the twist-on squirter. The trick here is - now pay attention - hold a spoon over the glass and squirt the seltzer onto the spoon, letting it then drip into the glass. 4. Mix quickly, and Drink!! ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other: Egg Cream 2 tbs chocolate syrup 6oz. whole milk 6oz. seltzer Mix syrup and milk in a fountain glass. Add seltzer, serve with a straw. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other: Fruit Cooler 1 large can frozen apple juice concentrate 1 cup sliced strawberries 2 tablespoons sugar (optional) 1 lemon 1 apple 1 liter seltzer water ice Toss strawberries with sugar, and let sit overnight in refrigerator. Cut lemon, reserve two slices. Juice the rest. Mix together the lemon juice, strawberries, apple juice, and seltzer. Add slices of lemon (decor, really). In glasses, put ice cubes, and a slice of apple. Pour drink in, and serve. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other: FRUIT FLIP-FLOP 1 cup yogurt 1 cup fruit juice (cranapple is the best!) Place all ingredients in the blender jar - cover and whiz on medium speed until well blended.

You might also try 4 - 6 carrots, 1 stalk celery, and an apple. Being a nutritional novice, I discovered the hard way that figs and citrus fruit don't mix!! ---------------------------------------------------------------------== Other: Hot Cider (non-alcoholic) (1 or 2) Oranges a few (20?) whole cloves Apple cider Cinnamon Sticks Stud the oranges with cloves. (Push the pointy end into them until the flower part is flush with the peel.) I use about 10 per orange. You may want to peel the top layer of skin off the orange if you don't want to ingest the dyes they put on them to make them orange :-( Put the cider into a large saucepan, and add the oranges and some cinnamon sticks (one or two will do). Heat for hours (you can just leave it on all day for a party). It gets better with age. Just pour in more cider when it starts getting low. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other: Hot Mulled Cider Servings: 8 8 c Apple cider/juice 1/2 c Packed brown sugar 1 ea Ground nutmeg 6 ea Inches stick cinnamon 1 t Whole allspice 1 t Whole cloves 8 ea Thin orange wedges/slices 8 ea Whole cloves In a large saucepan combine apple cider/juice, brown sugar, and nutmeg. for spice bag, place cinnamon, allspice, and the 1 teaspoon cloves in cheesecloth and tie; add to cider mixture. Bring to boiling. Reduce heat; cover and simmer 10 minutes. Remove spice bag and discard. Serve cider in mugs with a clove-studded orange wedge in each. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other: Hot Mulled Cider apple cider 1-2 oranges, washed whole cloves cinnamon sticks nutmeg Dump cider, cinn. sticks and a couple of teaspoons of nutmeg into a pot over very low heat. Slice oranges (after washing them well!!), and stick whole cloves into the rind, then float in cider as it warms. That's it. Drink when it gets warm. You can dump more cider into it up to a point when the spices get old - then just start again with a new set of spices, and a new orange. ---------------------------------------------------------------------== Other: Hot Spiced Cider Pour cider into pan (start with more than you'll need, some will evaporate) Add spices: (whole if you have it, ground if you don't) Cinnamon, Allspice, Cloves, Nutmeg. Simmer on stove and enjoy the smell. I usually let mine simmer for at least half an hour before serving (the longer you simmer, the more potent the potion). You will need to strain out the spices before serving, so that no one inadvertently swallows an allspice... As for measurements on the spices, I usually go heavy on the cinnamon, and light on the cloves, but that's just my personal taste. Just experiment until you find your own personal favorite. ---------------------------------------------------------------------= Other: Hot Spiced Cider To one gallon of GOOD apple cider (not TreeTop or similar grocery-store juices), add: 1 allspice 1 clove 1 cinnamon stick and let simmer for 1 hour (or longer). This may not look like much spice, but it really does make a pleasantly spicey cider. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other: JUNGLE JUICE 1 banana, broken into chunks 2 cups orange juice dash of ginger Place all ingredients in the blender jar - cover and whiz on medium speed until well blended. Pour in one tall, 2 medium or 3 small glasses and drink up. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other: JUST A MOONMINT 2 cups milk chocolate syrup (you decide how much!) 1/4 tsp mint flavoring Place all ingredients in the blender jar - cover and whiz on medium speed until well blended.

Add torn curry leaves and serve cold. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other: Lassi - A South Indian Drink Lassi is one of the easiest things to make, and there are many ways of making it. Basically, it is buttermilk (yoghurt whisked with water), and you can choose almost any consistency that you like, from the thinnest to the thickest. Serve cold. In North India, typically, lassi is sweet, just yoghurt, water and sugar whisked together. The consistency is quite thick. You get more variety in the South. Typically, the lassi is thinner, and is spiced. You can add salt, lemon, ginger, curry leaves, and almost anything else you feel will give an interesting flavor. For a more exotic variety, heat 1 tsp mustard seeds and a pinch of asafoetida powder in 2 tbsp oil, till the mustard begins to pop. Add to all the above ingredients. Just get creative and experiment, and the result is usually delicious. Lassi Indian Drink #2 4 oz(1/2 cup) of plain yogurt 1 1/4 cup cold water 1/2 tsp ground roasted cumin seed 1/4 tsp salt 1/4 tsp finely crumbled died minut (optional) (dried mint??) blend in a blender for 3 seconds ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other: Lassi The basic proportion for 1 glass of lassi is 1/2 glass yogurt 1/2 glass of ice cubes Put it in a osterizer/blender and whir it until the ice is chopped fine Now to make a sweet lassi - add 1 spoon sugar (quantity may vary) - a dash of rose water or rose essence if you have it - adds a wonderful touch. To make Salted Lassi, to the basic yougurt/ice cube mix add - a pinch of salt - couple of grinds of pepper - a dash of ground roasted cumin - gives an absolutely wonderfule aroma All measurements are approximate. -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- KHARA LASSI (salty) 1 cup yoghurt 2 cups cold water 1 tsp salt pinch hing (asafoetida) fresh curry leaves (3-4) Blend in blender until frothy.

Add sugar to taste. The lemon/lime is optional but it gives it a slightly tart taste. Dash of salt. Raita is also good for the summer. Instead of having a traditional salad you can make raita instead Grate cucumbers and discard excess water, dice tomatoes and onions. Add yoghurt (about 8 - 12 oz). Add salt and pepper to taste. It's wonderful for the summer; you can add other vegetables also if you like but it's traditionally made with just the cucumbers, onions, and tomatoes. -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- SWEET LASSI 1 cup yoghurt( the more sour the better) 2 cups cold water ( more if you like it thinner) 4 tbsps sugar ( I prefer less) pinch salt 1 tbsps rose water/essence OR 2 tbsps lemon juice ( I prefer the latter) Put all ingredients into a blender and blend until nice and frothy.

Bring to a boil (remember to stir constantly!), and the concoction will froth up. Remove from heat, let the froth subside, and repeat this cycle three more times. This is why your pot has to be bigger: the frothing would cause a major spill if you used a smaller pot. Serve and drink while hot. You can also adjust sweetness in your cup. Some people may want to strain this, as the ground spices sometimes have some coarse particles. This is a very nice hot drink, with a definite indian-food flavour, spicy-sweet and rich. The original recipe using milk also called for a tablespoon of butter for each serving (yuk!), and that was intended to make the drink rich-tasting. The thicker soya milk already has that thick rich texture, and is much lower in fat content. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other: Lemouroudji - A West African Lemonade From: The Miami Herald 2 medium pieces of ginger 1 gallon water 1 lb. lemons 1 cup sugar ground cayenne pepper Juice the lemons. Peel and grate the ginger. Place the grated ginger and a liberal dash of the cayenne pepper into a piece of cheesecloth, and tie it into a knot. Let soak in the water. After 15 minutes or so, add the sugar, and the lemon juice. Chill, and serve. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other: Limeade In a large glass, put the juice of 1 lime and 1 tablespoon sugar, and stir well.

From: Mme Jehane Benoit. 4 to 8 quarts of raspberries, white or cider vinegar, 1 cup white sugar per cup of juice. Wash and crush berries ina glass or earthenware bowl; pour enough vinegar on top to cover the berries; put a cloth on top and let stand 2 days in a cool place (do not refrigerate,) it will not spoil. Strain the juice through a double thickness of cheesecloth; measure and add 1 cup sugar for each cup of juice. Place in sauce pan and boil 15 minutes, stirring until the sugar is disolved. Pour into sterilized bottles; seal and keep in a cool place. To serve, put 2 to 4 tablespoons on top of ice cubes, fill glass with soda water, stir and serve. Yield 3 pints. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other: Rice Cooler (Horchata de Arroz) 2 cups white rice 1 cup (about 4 oz.) blanched almonds 3 Tabl. ground cinnamon 2 qts. warmed milk or hot water 3/4 cup granulated sugar, or to taste 1 tea. vanilla extract Ice cubes Wash and drain the rice. In a large bowl, combine the drained rice, almonds, and cinnamon with the warm milk or water and soak at least 6 hours, or preferably overnight. Drain, reserving liquid. Pure'e half the rice-almond mixture in a food processor or blender. Add about 1 cup of the reserved liquid and blend until as smooth as possible. Transfer the blended mixture to a bowl and repeat with the remaining rice mixture and liquid. Strain the mixture through 3 layers of dampened cheesecloth into a glass pitcher or jar, squeezing the cloth to extract all the milky liquid. Stir in the sugar and vanilla. Chill and serve over ice cubes. Makes about two quarts. -----------------------------------------------------------------== Other: Rice Drink Cook brown rice in way to much water (basmati is fine, but it really changes the flavour) and then let it cool. Filter out the water. Take the water and put it in a blender with a) almonds (about 4 cups rice water to 1 cup almonds) or b) carob (not sure of the proportions. Blend and blend at the fastest speed until the carob or almonds are completly mixed in. Add salt to taste. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other: SIMPLE APPLE-ALMOND BEVERAGE This is quite a tasty drink and a meal in and of itself. The proportions of ingredients, of course, are quite variable depending upon personal taste. 3-4 cups apple juice (preferably organic) 1/2 cup almonds 1 tsp of coriander (ground) 1/3 to 1/2 tsp sweet anise seed (ground) 1/4 to 1/2 tsp nutmeg (ground) Place the almonds, coriander, anise seed and nutmeg in the blender with about 1/2 to 1 cup of apple juice. Blend till thoroughly liquefied or liquefacient -- but not liquated! :) Then add the rest of the apple juice and blend to mix. Delicious! If you find this beverage too rich, then simply use less almonds (even a mere 4 almonds will work). For the calorie- conscious you can always drink juices diluted with water. Try starting with 1/4 part water and 1 part apple juice. As one gets used to this level of dilution then one can move on to say 1 part water to 1 part juice and even 1 part water to 1/4 part juice. "A little juice in my water, please" ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other: Smoothies Banana Cantaloupe Smoothie 1/2 cantaloupe with skin,sliced 1 banana peeled Juice cantaloupe,pour juice into blender,add banana, and liquify. Apple Berry 1 cup berries (strawberries,raspberries,any berry as you wish) 2 apples, cut into wedges Grape lemon pineapple 1 cup grapes 1/4 lemon with skin 1/2 pineapple with skin Kiwi Papaya 3 kiwifruits 1/2 papaya seeded sliced Mango Orange 1 mango,pitted,sliced 2 oranges,peeled Pineapple Gingerale 1/4 inch slice of ginger 1/2 pineapple with skin sliced Kill the cold 1-inch slice of ginger 1/4 lemon with skin 1 cup hot water Juice ginger and lemon and add it to hot water.You may add cardomom. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other: Soy Milk( Basic recipe/concept) 1 cup of dried soybeans I litre of water Soak the soybeans for 24 Hours. Put in a blender without any water. Blend put the soybeans in a piece of cheescloth and soak in litre of fresh water and squeeze for 10 mins. This is rather bland and thin though. What you do with it now makes all the difference. The traditional chineese thing to do is add sugar but the best additions are vanilla and malt. Im unsure of what the best quantities for theese are but I suspect its a matter of taste anyhow and would only require 1mins experimenting. I've only added a banana and 1 teaspoon sugar and put it in the blender which is quite good. I also suspect 1 teaspoon brewers or nutritional yeast would do nicely also. I've been put of using soybeans because of something I've read in "Eating better for less" which I'm sure is a falacy. It states that raw soybeans have an enzyme in them that reduce your capacity to absorb protein. The solution he states is to boil them for 1-2 hours which is ludicrous ( and a waste of gas/energy). Anyhow you can see that soymilk is made from raw soybeans and yet its meant to be a good source of protein. Where's the lie? I suspect the enzyme theory is rubbish myself, but I usually boil my soymilk anyhow which makes it curdle so I wouldnt recommend it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other: STRAWBERRY SHIVERS 1 1/2 cups fresh strawberries plus 4 tsp honey, or 1 10-oz package frozen strawberries 1/2 cups water Place all ingredients in the blender jar - cover and whiz on medium speed until well blended. Pour in one tall, 2 medium or 3 small glasses and drink up. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other: Strawberry-Pineapple Milk Shake Required - 1 pint of fresh strawberries. 1/2 large can of whole pineapple segments approx. 1/2 litre of SKIM milk Wash and destem one pint of fresh strawberries, dump 'em into blender. Dump in 1/2 can of whole pineapple segments into blender. Dump in enough milk to almost cover all fruits (better less than more, it comes out thicker and you could add more milk if needed anyway). Liquify. Serves 3 thirsty health-nuts. Very delicious. The pineapple serves to sweeten things up a little (strawberries alone with the skim milk are kind of tart). ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other: SWEET BANANAS 2 cups milk 1 banana, broken into chunks 1 tblsp honey or molasses Place all ingredients in the blender jar - cover and whiz on medium speed until well blended. Pour in one tall, 2 medium or 3 small glasses and drink up. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other: TOMATO TANG 2 cups tomato or V-8 juice big squeeze of lemon juice dash of celery salt Place all ingredients in the blender jar - cover and whiz on medium speed until well blended. Pour in one tall, 2 medium or 3 small glasses and drink up. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other: V-8 for Juicers I make a combination of 1lb carrots - 2-3 celery stalks - a hand full of fresh spinach - and now that someone on the net told me fresh cucumber juice helps grow hair - and I've bought a cucumber farm :-) - 2-3 of the small cucumbers like you use to make pickles. I have this every morning and so far I can see for miles - my mild case of psoriasis has really gotten better - and I feel great - but my hair still doesn't 'blow' in the breeze :-). ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other: Vegan Milkshake 1/2 cup freshly blanched (*) almonds or raw cashews 8-10oz. bottled water (I added the bottled part) 1 peeled, sliced, frozen banana (do this step in order) ~1/2 cup fresh or frozen berries of your choice Put the water and blanched almonds (or cashews) in a blender, blend on one of the higher speeds (mine says "liquefy") until you have almond milk. Then add the banana and berries, continue to blend until smooth. This recipe comes from my newest cookbook, _The Complete Vegetarian_, by Rose Elliot. I highly recommend this book. It is not vegan, but she almost always provides vegan alternatives when possible. I almost didn't buy this cookbook because Ms. Elliot is British (British Cook sounded like an oxymoron to me ;-), but I'm glad I did. The title in the U.K. is _Rose Elliot's Vegetarian Cookery_. * to blanch almonds, boil some water (enough to generously cover the almonds, but not a whole potful), put in the almonds and boil vigorously for ~2-3 minutes. Drain and "pop" almonds out of their skins. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other: YOGURT COOLER 1 cup yogurt 1 cup fresh, frozen or canned fruit - peaches, blueberries or other. Place all ingredients in the blender jar - cover and whiz on medium speed until well blended. Pour in one tall, 2 medium or 3 small glasses and drink up. Note: Use lots of ice in this one - great on hot days! To add ice: Remove the center of the cover while the blender is on - drop 3 or 4 ice cubs and blend until they're completely crushed. ==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-== Soda: Carbonated Water 5 U.S. gallons of water 1.5 cups sugar (or sugar syrup) 1 teaspoon dry bread yeast (rehydrated) I fill each bottle 2/3 full, screw on the top, and leave for one or two weeks. Each weekend I measure and add the syrup to a few bottles, top them off with water and stick them in the fridge. This is a very quick operation. I had experimented with adding dry sugar, but this caused an excessive amount of foaming. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Soda: Coca-Cola Syrup Claimed to be the 1886 (original) recipe for Coca-Cola syrup created by John Pemberton. Citrate caffeine, 1 oz Extract of vanilla, 1 oz Flavoring (see below) 2 1/2 oz Fluid extract of coca, 4 oz Citric acid, 3 oz Lime Juice, 1 qt Sugar, 30 lbs Water, 2 1/2 cal Caramel, sufficient Mix caffeine, acid and lime juice in one quart boiling water, add vanilla and flavoring when cool. Let stand 24 hours. Flavoring: a mixture of orange oil, lemon oil, nutmeg oil, cinnamon oil, coriander oil, neroli oil, and 1 quart of alcohol. The recipe found in archives marked 'X' does not say when sugar, coca, caramel or the rest of the water was to be added. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Soda: Coke's original formula "The Real Thing" - This is the syrup for the original Coke(tm). 30 pounds of sugar 2 gallons of water 2 pints of lime juice 4 ounces of citrate of caffeine 2 ounces of citric acid 1 ounce of extract of vanilla 6 drams (3/4 ounce) of fluid extract of cola 6 drams of fluid extract of coca According to the Coca-Cola Company, the formula has never been given out. But who knows? This could be the biggest leak ever... I see just a few problems with this, all of which are surmountable: Where can you get extract of cola and citrate of caffeine? (Of course it might be okay for some people to just leave out the caffeine.) A bigger problem would be producing carbonation at home, unless you have special equipment. But this recipe may be for a syrup concentrate to be mixed with carbonated water. I have made carbonated cola and root beer at home by a simple method. Use plastic resealable 1 or 2 liter soft drink bottles. Mix sugar, extract, and a little champagne yeast. Extract bottles give the proportions. Fill and seal bottles. Wait a few days for slight fermentation to produce carbonation and drink. The tiny amount of alcohol which must be produced is insignificant. It is not "the real thing (tm)", but it is cheap and interesting to try. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Soda: HOMEMADE GINGER BEER -------------------- >From "The Best of People & Food" Recipes by cruising sailors for cruising sailors by Seven Seas Press To make 1 quart(US)- 1 jar or bottle larger than 32oz Peel of 3 small limes or 1 lemon with a lid that can be tightly 1/2 cup of sugar sealed. 3 and 3/4 cups boiling water 1 large piece of ginger root 1/4 teaspoon yeast (1+ oz) peeled & crushed 1/4 cup of lukewarm water 1/3 cup lime juice Combine the crushed ginger,lime peel,juice and sugar in the jar. Pour in the boiling water. Cover loosely and let cool to room temp. Dissolve the yeast in the lukewarm water and add. Seal the jar as tightly as possible and let stand at room temp overnight. Chill, strain and serve. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Soda: Snapple (16oz imitation) 1 tea bag 1 cup boiling water 1 cup cold water 3 tablespoons fruit juice concentrate (Dole has many flavors) 1 tablespoon sugar optional: lemon juice (to add tartness) Let tea steep for at about 5 mins so it's nice and strong. After tea is cool, mix together the remaining ingredients. Add more sugar and/or lemon juice to suit your taste. Some flavors may need more juice concentrate. You probably won't be able to perfectly match your favorite flavors, but you'll save a lot of money and you may create a new favorite. Also, you can make it exactly as sweet or tart as you like and you have a use for those 16oz bottles (recycling at its best). ==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-== zHelp: CAFFINE in drinks MILLIGRAMS CAFFEINE ITEM AVERAGE RANGE Coffee (5-oz. cup) Brewed, drip method 115 60-180 Brewed, percolator 80 40-170 Instant 65 30-120 Decaffeinated, brewed 3 2-5 Decaffeinated, instant 2 1-5 Tea (5-oz. cup) Brewed, major U.S. brands 40 20-90 Brewed, imported brands 60 25-110 Instant 30 25-50 Iced (12-oz. glass) 70 67-76 Cocoa beverage (5-oz. cup) 4 2-20 Chocolate milk beverage (8 oz.) 5 2-7 Milk chocolate (1 oz.) 6 1-15 Dark chocolate, semi sweet (1 oz.) 20 5-35 Baker's chocolate (1 oz.) 26 26 Chocolate-flovored syrup (1 oz.) 4 4 SOFT DRINKS MILLIGRAMS CAFFEINE BRAND (12-oz. serving) Sugar-Free Mr. PIBB 58.8 Mountain Dew 54.0 Mello Yello 52.8 TAB 46.8 Coca-Cola 45.6 Diet Coke 45.6 Shasta Cola 44.4 Shasta Cherry Cola 44.4 Shasta Diet Cola 44.4 Mr. PIBB 40.8 Dr. Pepper 39.6 Diet Dr. Pepper 39.6 Big Red 38.4 Sugar Free Big Red 38.4 Pepsi-Cola 38.4 Aspen 36.0 Diet Pepsi 36.0 Pepsi Light 36.0 RC Cola 36.0 Diet Rite 36.0 Kick 31.2 Canada Dry Jamaica Cola 30.0 Canada Dry Diet Cola 1.2 Source: "The Latest Caffeine Scorecard" HHS Publication No. 84-2184 U.S. Dept. of Health and Human Services Dated 1985, Reprinted from March, 1984 ========================================================================= | Section 8: Drinking To Excess | ========================================================================= Many years ago I used to study alcohol metabolism. I may not have kept up on very recent stuff, but, from what I have read of the responses so far, I may have the only scientifically tested information you'll receive. Removal of alcohol takes several pathways. It is removed directly in the kidneys and in the lungs (blown off in the breath) and it is broken down in the liver. Several people have pointed out that dehydration plays an important role in the hangover. That is true. You have probably had other headaches that feel much like hangovers when you have been sick or if you have exerted yourself on a hot day. Dehydration is a major part of these. What noone has told you is *why* alcohol makes you dehydrated. Alcohol is a diurhetic (sp?) which is just another way of saying it makes you dehydrated. Basically, removal of toxins from the blood stream is a water-intensive process. It is not exactly the chemical process of treating the alcohol that uses the water (as someone else said) but rather the fact that the toxins are carried accross the membranes in the kidneys disolved in lots of water. So it is the direct removal of ethanol that can lead to the dehydration. All the suggestions about drinking water or gatorade are good ideas. The water also carries off lots of electrolytes, so gatorade is a good idea. There is another important component to the hangover besides dehydration and that is acetaldehyde. The breakdown of ethanol in the liver is a two-step oxydation carried out by two separate enzymes. The first, alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH), converts ethanol to acetaldehyde. The second, aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH), converts acetaldehyde to acetate. Acetate is harmless, aldehydes are extremely toxic (you know what formaldehyde, which is not very different from acetaldehyde, can do to tissue). Now, one problem is that not all people have equally efficient enzymes. You may have heard that many Asians (and native Americans) cannot drink without getting very ill. That is because they carry a form of the gene for ALDH that makes a slower form of the enzyme. To make matters worse, many also carry a fast form of ADH, so they really build up toxic levels of aldehyde. The particular combination of enzymes a person has, has alot to do with individual tolerances. You may also have heard of a drug called "antabuse," (disulfuram) which is given to alcoholics and makes them sick if they drink. The drug works by in-activating ALDH, leading to a toxic buildup of aldehyde. Also, treatment of severe alcohol poisoning usually involves the use of a drug that blocks ADH, that is, prevents the person from breaking down the alcohol at all. This way, they body will have time to clear some of the alcohol through the kidneys and lungs before the body gets flooded with aldehyde, which will kill the victim. You metioned dark and sweet drinks. Alot of this has to do with other toxins in the product--the tannins in red wine for example. Considering you system is taxed enough by the alcohol alone, asking the liver and kidneys to clear lots of other things is insult to injury. Everything I have said up until now has been fact. I am going to provide you some educated guesses (not my own) pertaining to some of your other questions. There are some guesses as to the relationship between sugar metabolism and ethanol metabolism. Both steps in alcohol metabolism convert NAD to NADH(H+) (the "dehydrogenases" remove hydrogen--I guess that is obvious--and the place your body puts hydrogens is on NAD or FAD or FMN to make NADH etc.). The full names of these molecules are Nicatinamide Adenine Dinucleotide, Flavin Adenine Dinucleotide and Flavin MonoNucleotide. You may recognize these names as similar to the "B" vitamins (Riboflavin, Nicatinamide). They are the B vitamins, which everyone will tell you are important in energy metabolism. In the metabolism of sugars, as I am sure you remember, you make ATP (riboAdenosine Triphosphate). You also store energy in something we call "reducing equivelents." This is nothing more than a source of Hydrogens which can be used to "reduce" (the opposite of "oxydize") the spent ADP and AMP back to ATP. OK? So reducing equivelents is another way to make ATP and is the end product of energy (Sugar) metabolism. Here's the payoff: The reducing equivelents are stored as NADH and FADH etc.--reduced B vitamins. So the guess is that having to metabolize lots of sugars along with the alcohol ties up all the B vitamins in the the reduced form. So there is not enough oxidized NAD available to participate in the metabolism of ethanol, or, more importantly, aldehyde. This is what is behind the suggestion that you take B vitamins when you drink and also the suggestion that you not consume sugar and alcohol. I think the guess is a reasonable one. But it is not proved. Another thing people may have told you that fructose might help. This is because fructose throws something of a monkey wrench into sugar metabolism. It slows it down (I won't bother you with why). That may free up more of the oxidized B vitamins for aldehyde dehydrogenase. But, I am not convinced of this. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Dr. I. M. Bibe's Anti-Hangover Tips -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Well, having done YEARS of research (;-D) on hangover cures, here are my scientific findings: 1. There is one preventive measure that is absolutely foolproof for every person in the world: Don't ever drink. You'll be guaranteed to avoid hangovers for the rest of your life. 2. Since 99.9% of the people who are concerned with hangovers will never follow method #1, then the next best preventive measure is this: Never drink enough to get really drunk. That way, hangovers will be rare, if not nonexistent. 3. Since almost everyone who has ever had a hangover will refuse to comply with methods #1 or #2, then this is the next best preventive measure: Always force yourself to do this shortly before retiring from your drinking activities to allow your body to succumb to unconsciousness: Take a couple or three aspirin, acetominophen, or ibuprofen pills with a full glass of water (or two glasses of water). Granted, if you're full of beer, the last thing you'll want is a lot of water. And, while this method will probably result in at least one extra middle-of-the-night trip to the bladder-relief room, it WILL pay off the next morning. This method is about as sure-fire a preventive (for ALL people) as you'll find. It really works. Mind you, it's not a CURE. You'll still feel a little ragged, but it can truly save you the next day. Trust me. I know it's not easy to make yourself do this at the end of a long night of lovely alcohol abuse, but if you try to make it a routine operation before going to bed, you'll thank yourself the next day. This can also be a tricky maneuver if you've had so much that you're actually falling down/ stumbling/passing out-drunk. Try your hardest to make yourself do it though. (Also be SURE you know what pills you're swallowing.) 4. Methods #1, #2, & #3 apply to ALL people. From this point on, we enter the mysterious realm of experimental preventives. The problem here is that all people are not alike in such things as size, weight, metabolism, chemistry, etc. So, what works for me may not work for you. But I offer these as good ideas to try when you've done what 89% of us do - namely, said to hell with methods #1, #2, & #3. You've just opened your eyes to find yourself crumbled into a collapsed mess, hopefully in a bed, hopefully in somewhat familiar surroundings, but, worst of all, awake. Your mind gradually manages to reconstruct some sort of memory of some portion of the previous night's activities. You feel like the worst part of hell (this is the cue for the proverbial "I'll-never-drink-again" declaration, one of the most pitiful demonstrations of bull$#!+ in all of human behavior). You need help. Quick. A little understanding of what a hangover actually IS really comes in handy here. It's a combination of a few physiological things: a) dehydration - the alcohol has forced evaporation of a certain vital portion of the body's water; b) nervous shock - you're coming off the effects of a mild overdose of a depressant drug, so your nerves are displaying the great Newtonian natural law of action/reaction by going into a relatively hypersensitive state; c) malnutrition - pumping all that alcohol and liquid through your body has effectively flushed away a significant supply of your storage of vitamins and nutrients, chemicals which would stimulate natural defense systems, but you're running seriously low on them now. So..... What you need to do is take some restorative steps to begin a recovery process. This means doing the same things that you should've done in method #3 (it's really too late now, but it can't hurt). It means rest and as little nervous stimulation as possible. It also means trying to eat something that will help to replace the nutrients you've lost. That really should be in the forms of fruits/vegetables, NOT fatty, greasy junk, not dairy foods, something that isn't too tough on the already beat-up digestive system. Bananas are great for key vitamins. But I'll tell you what I've found to be a real miracle medicine for me - tomatoes! Strange but true. This came to me by pure accident. I was a suffering bastard one day following a night of revelry, and I knew I needed some food, but I found myself in a situation where I didn't really have any choice about the lunch that I'd been served. It was a basic Italian-American dish that included a tomato sauce (something like lasagne or spaghetti). In less than an hour after eating, I felt rejuvenated, almost back to normal! I couldn't believe how quickly I had gone from hangover hell to basically ok. I figured it was just a fluke. But the next time I was in a similar situation, I deliberately tried it again, and it worked! This sort of explains half of the reason that a Bloody Mary is the standard morning-after drink. (The OTHER half, of course, is that more alcohol - "hair-of-the-dog" - acts to relax your shattered nerves and numb the pain in the head, but more alcohol is also a great step on the road to alcoholism, not a habit I'd suggest.) So, next time, try it. Maybe a little light pasta with a meatless, greaseless, tomato sauce. Cold gazpacho or a mild salsa may work too, but your stomach will be in no mood for onions and peppers. A glass of V8 may be just the thing. Citrus juices tend to bother the stomach too; but tomatoes are highly acidic, so I can't explain that part. 5. If you know you're going to be drinking a LOT of something, there are certain definite DON'Ts: -Don't mix a lot of different types of alcoholic drinks (liquor, then wine, then beer). Loudon Wainwright wrote a song about this: "Drinks before dinner and wine with dinner and after-dinner drinks/ Single-entendre/Help me, Rhonda/Locate my cufflinks/ Come with me and you all will see that it all be alright/ Rudolph the red-nosed wino will guide our sleigh tonight." -Don't overdo it with colored liquors (red wine, whiskeys, cordials, dark rum). A cheap red wine hangover is absolutely THE WORST. Death without actually passing into the next world. -Don't overdo it with sweet blended concoctions. This is the classic mistake of high-school idiots, dumb college undergrads, and basic novice drinkers (who will probably never drink again). All of these sick sugary trendy drinks with cream of whatever, and doughnut-flavored schnapps, and layers of nifty floating colored syrups and liquers. Oh, please. Gag. Gallons of Coca-Cola mixed with hard liquor. Imitation raspberry-flavored margaritas and "daiquiris". (Raise your hand if you've ever even SEEN a real daiquiri.) The combination of all of that sugar in the stomach with the mandatory alcoholic kick in the head - the end-result is almost always the same. (I STILL remember the sight of the sidewalk outside of a cheezy teen bar in Underground Atlanta back when they served 18-yr.-olds.) Most kids still have to learn the hard way. Some people think it's a rite of passage to "adulthood". Yeah, right. ========================================================================= | Section 9: Drinking Games | ========================================================================= =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= = Game Listing = = ------------ = = Asshole Drop the Dime Queens Three Man = = Beer Blow Drug Dealer I Never Thumper = = Beer Hunter Drunk Driver Kings Tv Characters = = Beer Pot Fuzzy Duck Master of Thumb Spinners = = Beer Race Guess the Note Mexican Suck and Blow = = Boat Races "Hi, Bob" Questions Super Quarters = = Bouncing Ball High - Low Red and Black Twenty-One Aces = = Bullshit Indian Poker Shotgun Up/Down River = = Buzz Name Game Sink Battleship Viking = = Century Club Puechre Star Trek: TNG Mexicali = = Dice Quarters Speed Quarters The Tower = = Pennies/Pitcher Beerchesi Smash Sixes = = Bouncing Ball Beergammon Whales Tales Pursuit = = Beat the barman One Big Chicken Cardinal Puff Fuzzy Duck = = Beer 99 Beeropoly Kiss-n-slap .___________________= = Kings and Blood Icetray Quarters | Total: 57 games = =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= ------- Asshole ------- This is a slightly more complex game, but very, very fun when mastered. This game requires a minimum of 5 people to play. High boot factor. The first hand of asshole is the establishing hand. This will decide who is the President, V-Pres, Normal People, and the Asshole for the next round. Approxiametly 6 or 7 cards are dealt to each player, depending on the number playing this can be higher or lower. The rank of the cards is as follows (most powerful to least powerful) 2, A, K, Q, ... 4, and 3. Some is chosen to go first and they play a card, the next person has two options: 1) to play a card higher than (but not the same) as the previous card. 2) or to pass on that turn. For example, if a 4 is lead, a next player must play HIGHER than a 4, the the next player has to play higher than that. A new hand starts when all players pass, or when someone plays a 2 (the most powerful card). The last person to play a card, leads the next hand. This proceeds until all players are rid of their cards. The first player out of cards is the Pres for the next round, the next out becomes the VP, the next players out are normal, and the last person out is the Asshole. However lets say that the person leading has two 5's, this person may play them both, then the next player must play two of the same card HIGHER than five; this player cannot play one card or three cards, only two. As well, three, or even four, of the same card may be lead. The only time a player may lay one card in a situation like this is if it is a two (the power card); a single two, beats everything, and the hand ends followed by a new lead. The roles for each player are as follows: President: can make any player drink at any time, no-one may make the President drink but self. The Pres is the first player to start each round (benefits of power). And the Pres should never have to refill own beer. Vice Pres: can make any player drink at any time (except Pres), the only the Pres or self can make the VP drink. The VP goes second in each round. Normal People: These players can make each other drink as well as the Asshole. They play in the order they finished the previous round; first normal out follows the VP, second normal out follows first, etc. Asshole: for many reasons, this player is truly the Asshole. This player has to do all dealing of cards, all sweeping of cards after the hands, and can not make any other player drink. The asshole plays last in each round. A few recommendations, at the end of each round, the players should move seats in order to reflect the hierachy, and proper playing order. Play your lowest cards first. Abuse the power when Pres or VP, but remember it will always come back to haunt you, especially when abusing the Asshole. Play as many rounds as desired. --------- Beer Blow --------- Another very simple game (the best kind) with a high buzz factor. Supplies: people, beer, deck of cards, empty bottle. The deck of cards is placed on the empty bottle. Each player blows cards off the deck on the bottle in turn. The one who blows the last card off the bottle has to drink one glass of beer. Variation: If sombody spots an ace among the cards a player blew off - that player has to drink once. So if someone blows down a bunch of cards and two aces are visible that person would drink twice. ----------- Beer Hunter ----------- The rules are so easy, a drunk person could understand. All you need for this game is a sixpack, a box, and people to play it with you. Take one can. Shake it. Now I don't mean just shake it, I mean SHAKE the sucker! Till it's about to blow up. Then put it in the box with the others and mix them around (one person not looking) and then switch them around again (the other person not looking) Basically, nobody knows where it is. Now, one person picks a can, holds it to his/her head at an angle, and opens it. If it's not the one, s/he has to drink it. If it is the one, s/he gets a wet head and you can start all over or whatever. Then, if it wasn't the one, the next player takes one and tries. etc. -------- Beer Pot -------- An incredibly simple game that will knock you out of your chair. Basic supplies: beer and people (as usual), plus a big pot, or pitcher. All players sit in a circle. Each player contributes one beer to the pot. One player starts drinking from the pot. This person can drink as much or little as s/he chooses. When done, the pot passes to the next player who does the same thing. The person who empties the pot is the winner. The person who drink immediately before the winner is the loser. The loser must then put a beer in the pot for each of the players; then play starts again. Or a variation is that the loser puts in two beers, the winner zero, and everybody else puts in one. This is also a great game to be played in bars. Buy a big pitcher of beer. Pass it around. The loser buys the next pitcher. It is important that the pot/pitcher is big - it makes it harder to judge the amount of beer remaining. --------- Beer Race --------- The rules are quite simple; potentially high buzz factor. As usual the basic supplies are people and beer. Each person starts with a full glass/mug/stein/tankard/cup of beer. Any beer will do, but preferably something quite inexpensive. All platers start drinking at the same time. To signal that you have finished you hold the glass *upside-down* above your head; if anyone does so then the other players must do the same whether or not they have finished drinking. IMPORTANT NOTE: It isn't required that you actually drink the beer before claiming to have won; the winner is the first person to invert their glass above their head regardless of whether they actually drank the contents. ---------- Boat Races ---------- One of those classic endeavors that leaves everyone wet and drunk. Very high buzz factor. Supplies: people and lots of beer. Have everybody divide up into two even teams. Each team lines up opposite each other, preferably down a long table, or just sitting on the ground. Fill each glass full of beer and place in on the table in front of each player. The players can not touch their glass before they are allowed. The first players on each team start the game by drinking all of their beer and setting the glass back on the table. When the glass touches the table the second person drinks his beer and sets his glass on the table. This continues until the last beer is gone. The first team to place their last empty glass on the table wins. Wins what you may ask? Nothing. Alternate version: each player has two glasses of beer. The race goes down the line and returns. That means the turn-around players have to drink two beers in a row. ------------- Bouncing Ball ------------- A very interesting and imaginative game. Mid level buzz factor. Supplies: people, beer, and an imaginary ball. Everyone sits around a table. There are only three words that can be said: WHIZ, BOUNCE, and BOING. Someone starts by saying one of the words. WHIZ = the ball passes to next player. BOUNCE = the ball skips the next player and goes to the following player. BOING = ball hits wall and reverses direction. The penalty for errors is drinking. Variation: play with difficult words such as PERFIGLIANO, SCHWARTZ, and a players name. -------- Bullshit -------- Another mentally challenging card game that involves beer. High level buzz factor. Supplies: beer, people (not more than 6 for a good game), and a deck of cards. Sit in a circle, deal out the entire deck of cards evenly, or thereabouts, to each player. The object of the game is to get rid of all your cards. Starting with aces, the first player lays down the number of aces s/he has, stating the number of cards. EVEN if the player doesn't have any of the card, LIE. If someone thinks that you are lying, they say "Bullshit!" If that person is right, you drink an amount proportional to the number of cards in the stack; lots of cards already played = lots of drinks. However, if you were honest in your play and someone says "Bullshit!" that person ends up drinking the prescribed amount. Play starts with aces, then goes on accordingly, through kings, then repeats back to aces. Oh, by the way, if have to drink because of either being caught bullshitting or falsely accusing, in addition to drinking, you must also pick up all of the cards already played and add them to your hand. Play continues until someone runs out of cards. If you so choose, play could continue down to the last two players. ---- Buzz ---- Simple game, low buzz factor. None the less entertaining when a good buzz is already attained. Required supplies: people, and of course, beer. Sit in a circle. The first player says 'one,' the next player says 'two,' and so on down the line. However, when someone reaches a number that is divisible by 7, s/he says "buzz." If the player misses a "buzz" when needed, or when an unnecessary "buzz" occurs, that player drinks. The obvious challenge is to see how high of a number can be attained; but this also means very little drinking. The known current record is over 1200. Variation: An honest "buzz" would change the direction of the circle. Or add '11' into the rotation and say 'Bizz' for divisibles of 11. In this case, watch out for 77. ------------ Century Club ------------ This is another straight forward simple game, the best kind. You will end up very drunk, very quickly if you play this. The necessary materials are: people, lots of beer, and a designated time keeper. Every minute for 100 minutes, each player takes a shot of beer (1 oz or 1.5 oz, you choose). At one oz, this equates to just short of nine cans of beer in just over 1.5 hours. That's a lot of beer. The game starts out slow, but in the later rounds you wonder where the time went. It helps to have a timekeeper because otherwise, you tend to miss a few shots in there. Remember, not everyone makes it to 100. But if you do, feel proud. ---- Dice ---- Quite similar to, but not as involved as Three Man. Still, a high buzz factor. Standard supplies: beer, people, liquor, dice. Roll two dice. Anything that adds up to six (i.e. 2-4,5-1) or has a six in it (i.e. 6-1, 6-2, 6-2, 6-3, 6-4, 6-5), you drink a "good" gulp of beer. Any time you roll double 2s, 4s, or 5s you drink that many (2, 4, or 5) "good" gulps of beer (You can modify this to just one "gulp" on doubles). If you roll double 3s you are penalized twice, for getting doubles and adding up to six. Thus four "good" gulps (or 2 if you play the modified rules). The killer is double 1s or double 6s. For this you do a SHOT of your favorite poison (i.e. JD, Southern Comfort, tequilla, etc). Lastly...you continue rolling until you get something that you don't drink on (i.e. 1-2, 1-3, 1-4, 1-5, 2-3, 2-5, 3-4, 3-5, 4-5). If you roll the dice off the table, you are also rewarded with a gulp of beer. ------------- Drop the Dime ------------- To play this game you will need a cigarette, a glass, a napkin, and a dime. Unfold the napkin and place it over the mouth of the glass so that it will stay in place (may need to secure with tape or rubber band). Then place the dime in the center of the napkin. The object is to see how much of the napkin you can burn away, taking turns, with the cigarette. The player to cause the dime to drop consumes a full glass of beer. ----------- Drug Dealer ----------- Quite a simple game actually, with a low-mid boot factor. This is a game to play while doing other things at a party. To play the game you need one playing card for each participant. You always need one King and one Ace, and a variety of numbered cards some low, some mid, some high, but just one card per player. The cards are dealt face down, take a quick peek. The person who gets the King is the cop, the person who gets the ace is the drug dealer, everyone else are bystanders. It is the drug dealers job to very VERY discreetly wink at another player, this person while enventually say 'the deal has been made.' At this time the cop identifies him/herself and tries to figure out who the dealer is. The cop chooses a player, if wrong the cop drinks the number shown on the card, and then chooses again, if wrong again, he drinks the number on that card. When the cop chooses correctly, the drug dealer drinks the NUMBER OF CARDS remaining NOT the total of the numbers on the cards. After that, the cards are redealt and the game goes on. This is a great game for when people don't feel like playing a game because it's the regular socializing that helps disguise any winks and keep the cop on his/her toes. However, it helps alot if the players do sit in a circle while playing, and not spread around a room. Obviously if you want to increase the boot factor, play with high numbered cards. ------------ Drunk Driver ------------ The rules for this are easy, there is a dealer and one 'driver.' The dealer deals 6 cards (more for a greater challenge, less for an easy road) face down to the driver. The driver turns over a card and one of the following will happen: if the card is a non-face card or ace, nothing happens and the driver moves onto the next card. if the card is a face card or ace, the driver is dealt additional cards based on which card; Jack = +1 card, Queen = +2 cards, King = +3 cards, and Ace = +4 cards. As well, as being dealt more cards, the driver also has to have a drink for each additional card. (ace turned over --- 4 cards and 4 drinks). The game continues until the driver has successfully made it off the road (gone through all cards dealt). If the dealer runs out of cards, simply reshuffle the cards already played. ---------- Fuzzy Duck ---------- A good get-to-know-ya kind of game. Simple supplie: people and beer. Low buzz factor. Not too bad of a game after everybody's had a few. Begin the game by saying "fuzzy duck" to the person to your left. That person then says "fuzzy duck" to the person on his/her left. This continues until someone decides to change the direction of play by saying "does he" (duzzy). "Does he" changes the direction and the phrase that is said. Not only does the direction change but the people must say "ducky fuzz." Now the game is going to the right with "ducky fuzz." The direction is then changed back by saying "duzzy." The words to say go back to "fuzzy duck." Any screw-ups ===> drink. After awhile when the mistakes are more frequent, it turns into, "Does he F**ck?" or "F**k he does." Variation: the same player cannot say the same thing consequtively within the same round. ie: if player 1 starts with "Fuzzy Duck," and play comes back around to him, he must say "Does He" before being able to say "Fuzzy Duck" again. -------------- Guess the Note -------------- As many people as are interested can play, the more the merrier. A game for the more musically inclined. Low buzz factor. Supplies: people, bottled beer, and some musical instruments (piano is best). One player takes a seat at the instrument. The other players drink unspecified amounts of beer from the bottles. The first player blows a note on his bottle, as if playing a flute. The person at the instrument has 3 tries to repeat the note with the instrument. If repeated correctly, the first player drinks. If the person never matches the note, he drinks three and passes his turn. --------- "Hi, Bob" --------- Similar to "TV Characters," another old style drinking game steeped in tradition. Mid-High buzz factor. Supplies: people, beer, and episodes of the original "Bob Newhart Show," or even "Newhart," if desperate. Simple rules: whenever anybody on the show says "Hi, Bob!", everybody calls out "HI BOB!" and takes a very generous drink of their beer. People on the show say "Hi, Bob" so often, that even the guys who can hold their alcohol the best will get at least a good buzz. ---------- High - Low ---------- This is another very easy game with a pretty decent buzz factor. Materials needed: people, beer, cards. Player one is dealt a card. S/he then guesses whether the next card will be higher or lower than the next card. If wrong, s/he drinks once (because one card was showing). If correct, s/he guesses again. After taking at least three cards, the player may choose to continue or pass, BUT ONLY after having taken at least three cards. If the player pass, the next player starts where the previous left off. When a player guesses incorrectly, s/he drinks for each card showing. SO, the strategy is to build up a lot of cards and then pass it to the next player. Before play starts, determine by vote if equal cards are a loss or correct guess. ------------ Indian Poker ------------ A pretty silly looking game, but that's what makes it fun. Supplies: people, beer, and a deck of cards. Mid-high buzz factor. Each player is dealt one card that they can not look at. They must place the card on their foreheads so that everyone else can see the cards. That means you can see everyone card but your own. Dealer begins by betting that he has the highest card by saying how many drinks he wishes to bet. Players who don't think they can win fold and take as many drinks from their beer that the current bet is at. The player who ends up losing with the lowest card with the lowest card must drink the total of the bets. ------------- The Name Game ------------- Another good "get to know ya'" kind of game. Mid buzz factor. Only the standard supplies are needed: people and beer. Everybody sits in a circle, (isn't this how most games start?) and someone starts by saying the name of someone famous, or pretty close to being famous as far as those people are concerned. The next person says a name that starts with the first letter of the last name of the previous name. Sound confusing? Not really. Mel Brooks | Bart Simpson | Sam Donaldson | Dick Vitale | Vincent Price | Pat Robertson | Rick Mears | Michelle Pfeiffer If a player can't think of a name IMMEDIATELY, they must consume for the DURATION until they can think of an appropriate name. Play never stops, it is always moving. Now, if someone says a name that begins with the same letter on first and last names (ie: Doanld Duck, Mickey Mouse) or is a singel name (ie: Madonna, Cher) then the direction of the circle reserves. For example: Michelle Pfeiffer | Patty Duke | Donald Duck | (direction change) Davy Jones | Jesus (direction change) | Jim Morrison | Mike Tyson and so on. (also referred to as "Think While You Drink") ------- Peuchre ------- A drinking game adapted to the card game Euchre. If you don't know how to play Euchre, don't ask. It has to be seen to be understood, and not many people get it after that. So, this game is for those who know how to play the game. Lose a point: one drink per point. Get Euchred : five drinks, plus drinks for points. Take all during loner: losers drink 10, plus points. Partner over-trumps when not necessary: partner has two. Caught Reneging: Kill entire beer. Victorious: Have a few to celebrate. Add to and adjust as needed. -------- Quarters -------- A mindless game that actually requires a certain amount of coordination. Supplies: people and beer (as usual), a quarter (hence the name), and a shallow juice-type glass. All players sit around a table, or similarily hard surface, and, in turn, try to bounce the quarter off the table into the juice glass. If successful, the player tells any other player to have a drink, as well as receiving another turn. If the player fails, play passes to the next in the circle. If the player is fortunate enough to make three bounces in a row, this player may make a rule. Anything goes. Some favorites are: "Can't say drink, drank, or drunk." "Can't point with your fingers." "No proper names." "Have a drink before each attempted bounce." etc. (be creative) If any rule is broken during the course of play, the violator subsequently "consumes some beverage." Early days variations: The glass that you bounce into also contains the beer to drink. The trick is to then drink the beer without swallowing the quarter. If the player bounces and hits the rim of the glass, without the quarter going in, s/he receives another free attempt. If the player misses, and feels confident enough, s/he may "chance" for another attempt. If the player makes the chance attempt, things proceed as if it were a normal turn. However, if the chance attempt fails, that player must drink the beer. Following a failed "chance" attempt, the player may wish to attempt a "kill." if the attempt is succesful, play continues as normal, but if the attempt fails, the player must drink a full glass/can/bottle of beer non-stop. ------ Queens ------ Another decent card game with a mid-level buzz factor. Supplies: people, beer, and a deck of cards. Shuffle the deck of cards. Spread them out so that any card can be chosen. Someone, doesn't matter who, goes first by choosing a card. The following tells what action is going to be taken: Ace - Pick any player to drink King - All players drink Queen - Ladies drink Jack - Men drink 10 - 2nd person on right of chooser drinks 9 - 2nd person on left of chooser drinks 8 - All players drink 7 - Person to right of chooser drinks 6 - Person to left of chooser drinks 5 - change direction (ie from clockwise to counter-clockwise) 4 to 1 - the person picking the card drinks that many drinks. Play continues to the left, unless a five, the change of direction card was drawn. ------- I Never ------- This is a great game for a group of close friends or people who really like to share hints of their dark pasts. Only supplies are people with enquiring minds, and beer. You probably won't get drunk playing this, but it's a great ice-breaker for a party. Everyone sits around around a table, or on the floor if you so desire. One person goes first by making a TRUE statement that begins with "I never...." For example, "I've never been to Disneyland." Then, if any other player HAS DONE what the person said, they simply drink. As the game progresses, the statements tend to get more personal and explicit. But the game only works when people are honest. However, if somebody drinks on an "I never..," no explanation is necessary. For example, if someone says, "I've never had sex with an inflatable doll," and someone ends up drinking to it, no explanation is needed, just a drink of affirmation. ----- Kings ----- A simple game, could be quite interesting. A game that could very easily be played in a bar, making the lives of others more interesting. Played with liquor not beer. Supplies: people, a variety of liquor, and a deck of cards. Shuffle the cards. Start dealing one card at a time, face up, to each player. The first person to be dealt a king picks a liquor, the second dealt a king picks the mixer, the third makes the drink (or buys it), and the last dealt a king drinks it. This can turn out to be quite a laugh; it relies purely on chance, and if you pick a really disgusting liquor or liquor/mixer combination, it could happen that you'll be the one required to drink the concoction. ------------------- Master of the Thumb ------------------- This game is played in conjunction with any other game during the course of the evening. It is very simple and easily adapted. The game starts by picking the person who will be the first Master Of The Thumb. While sitting around the table having a good time, the Master Of The Thumb can, at any time s/he chooses, non-chalantly place her thumb on the edge of the table. After she has started this, anyone who notices must follow example. The last person to place his/her thumb on the table loses and has to drink, but they do become the new Master Of The Thumb. If anyone places their thumb on the table without the real Master Of The Thumb starting it, they have to drink. ------- Mexican ------- Takes a bit to catch onto, but once understood, quite a competitive game. Requires people, beer and dice. Mid buzz factor. Someone arbitrarily goes first by rolling the dice. The score for the dice is as follows: 2 & 1 = Mexican, the highest possible roll. (if you throw one of these, the eventual loser has to drink double the standard drinking quantity being used for the game.) (each subsequent mexican in that round will double the required drink for loser). More easily understood later. 3 & 1 = scumbag the thrower immediately has to consume one drink. This throw does not count as one of the thrower's goes. Any double = 100 times the double i.e., double 1 scores 100, double 2 scores 200 etc. Any other throw = The highest number multiplied by 10 + the smallest number i.e., 5 & 4 scores 54, 6 & 1 scores 61 etc. The starter has the choice of one, two of three rolls to obtain the best score they can. The starter's score is the score of their last throw i.e., if you throw a 61 then 63 with your first two throws and elect to take a third throw, you must count the third throw even if it's lower. Every other player in the game has the choice of throwing up to as many times as the starter i.e., if the starter takes one throw, all other players have only one throw. Holding a dice - if a player has more than one throw available, they may hold a 1 or a 2 (if thrown) for subsequent throws i.e., if you have 2 or 3 throws and you throw a 4:1 on your first go, you may, if you wish, only pick up the 4 and throw it as your next go. This tactic will increase your chance of a mexican, while also increasing your chance of a low score or scumbag. If you throw a scumbag you may not hold the 1. The loser is the person who throws the lowest score. In the event of a tie, all players with the lowest score must roll one dice and the lowest number loses. Play as many rounds as desired. --------- Questions --------- This is a favorite drinking game, although it's often difficult to find people willing to play it. Mid level buzz factor. Basic supplies only: people and beer. It starts with a room full of people, the more the merrier. The object is to ask a question when it is your turn, but this is much more difficult than it seems. The rules are: 1. Obviously, the infraction of any rule is punishable by a drink. 2. You can only ask one person one question at a time. a. The person who asks the question must address the person queried by name; no pointing. (newcomers to a crowd are allowed some leeway until they learn names.) b. The questions must be answerable by <<yes>> or <<no>>. (This rule is optional, but be certain beforehand if it will be observed.) 3. The person asked the question must immediately ask another person a. Any hesitation, answering the question, laughing, or doing anything else besides asking somebody else a question is punishable by a drink. b. Asking a question back at the person who asked is punishable by a drink. c. Any question can be asked only once. Simply rephrasing somebody else's question is a cheat. A person who repeats a question must take a drink. Other notes: If the crowd cracks up (after, for example, a spectacularly personal question), a <<Team Drink>> is called. The best way to play is to keep a question or two rolling around in your head, to be spewed out after you are asked a question. Good questions are the innocent sounding ones: <<Has the game started yet?>> <<Is it past midnight?>> <<Is that button on your shirt undone?>> The other best way to play is to get personal (the game usually descends to this level fairly quickly): <<Do you often pick your nose like that?>> <<Do you masturbate often?>> <<Are your breasts really 36DD?>> <<Does your girlfriend arch when you make love?>> You can see the game demonstrated (after a fashion) in the tennis court scene in _Rosencrantz_and_Guilderstern_Are_Dead_. ------------- Red and Black ------------- Simply a simple game with a pretty high buzz factor. Simple supplies: people, beer, deck o' cards. One player goes first. Using mental telepathy, s/he tries to predict the color of the card about to be turned over. If correct, s/he continues; if incorrect - drink. If correct three times in a row, the player can make a rule concerning procedure for the game. Intersting rules are: "Can't say red" "Can't say black" "Tap head before drinking" etc. As always, be creative. Of course, if some is caught "violating" a rule, s/he drinks. But be sure not to break the rules while enforcing them. ------- Shotgun ------- This is not really a drinking game, but more or less a contest to see who could drink a can of beer the fastest. Very high buzz factor. Supplies: beer, and something to puncture the can with. Punch a hole near the bottom of the can, on the side. BE CAREFUL: that can is now dangerous with sharp edges possibly exposed. Put your mouth over the hole, lift your head upo with the can while opening the can. Drink fast. The first person to finish is the "winner." ------------------- Sink the Battleship ------------------- A game of skill, a game of challenge, a game of intrigue? Low-Mid buzz factor. Supplies: people, beer, pitcher, and glasses. Each player will need a glass of beer. Float an extra glass in the pitcher of beer (adding some beer to the glass may be needed for stability). Each player takes turns pouring beer into the floating glass. After a five second wait, the next player then pours into glass. Whoever causes the glass to sink must retrieve it and drink its contents. The object is to leave the glass just short of sinking and leave the care upto the next player. ------------------------------ Star Trek: The Next Generation The Canonical Drinking Game ------------------------------ Requirements: Episode(s) of ST:TNG This list People (the more the merrier) Beverages of your choice Instructions: Simple. Watch the show, and whenever a condition is met, take the appropriate number of drinks. The definition of "drink" should be decided before game play starts. Usually, a good mouthful will suffice. Optional rules are included at the end of the list for fun variations on the "standard" game. Compiler's Note: I would advise taking some time before game play starts to decide which conditions to use and which to ignore. Remember that this list is canonical, so you probably will _not_ want to use them all (especially with a new episode, since you'll spend all your time reading the list, rather than watching). Please send any corrections, suggestions, requests, submissions, flames, etc. to the address listed above. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Category:

Two drinks if you say the wrong word. Whenever Riker appears in a scene, the last person to say "Oink Oink" takes a drink. If Troi "senses" something, everyone must stick a finger down their throats and make gagging sounds - last one to do so takes a drink. (This one could be dangerous in the latter stages of the game.) At the start of a commercial break, guess who will do the next log entry. Take a drink if you're wrong. If there's no log entry, everyone drinks. When Data launches into a long explanation, the last person to interrupt with "Thank you, Commander..." takes a drink. Doesn't count if you say it after it's said on the screen. Whenever Wesley saves the ship, throw something at the TV. Take a drink if you don't hit Wesley. Before the show, everyone predicts Dr. Crusher's hairstyle. Everyone who is wrong has to take a drink. Whenever Troi gets a headache, drink until the headache subsides. Before the show, everyone predicts Guinan's hat style (stop sign or teardrop). Everyone who is wrong has to take a drink. Whenever Data embarasses himself, drink until somebody stops him. ----- Sixes ----- Simple game, high boot factor. Line up six cups, size unimportant. Get a pitcher(s) of beer. And a single die. Everyone sits around and someone starts by rolling the dice. (clockwise or counter, direction matters not) The number you roll corresponds to the number of the cup in the line. If it's empty fill it as much as you want, if it contains beer, drink it all, and roll again. If you clear the table chances are the party will become more enjoyable ( at least to you ). ----- Smile ----- Highly adult game. Low buzz factor, nonetheless quite enjoyable to play. Approx 6-8 guys or girls (all one sex or mixed, for that matter) sit around a table with a table cloth that hangs to the floor. The participants drop their pants/skirts/shorts to their ankles and a willing person goes under the table to do whatever s/he wishes. The first "player" to smile has to drink. Originally a bachelor party game with hired prostitute. ---- Snap ---- A game of speed, challenge, and intellect? (or was that Thumper?) Anyways, a good game with a Very High buzz factor. Supplies: people, beer, and cards. Best played with a large number of people (for obvious reasons). One person is designated as the dealer. (This person should be changed every round because the dealer is at a distinct disadvantage. Some people play that the dealer does not play on his/her turn.) The dealer begins by placing cards, face up, in a stack, and calls out the number on each turn. When two cards of the same number come up in a row, the first person to bring his/her hand down onto the top of the pile gets the top card, and is then allowed to "give out" the number of the card in drinks to whomever he/she wishes. Rounds end when the dealer runs out of cards. Some people try to add some more fun to the game by requiring that all players have the 'snap hand' behind their backs. Others call snap on two face cards of same suit in a row, or cards in either assending or decending order. -------------- Speed Quarters -------------- This one is said to be more fun than the original game. This one doesn't allow for those certain people to concentrate for half-an-hour while everyone else gets bored. The cardinal rule in this game is - you snooze, you loose! Supplies: people, beer, a shallow glass, and two quarters. Situate everyone in a circle. Give the two quarters to two people opposite each other in the circle (or as opposite as possible). Then, say "GO!" and the two people try to bounce their quarters into the same glass. They get as many tries as it takes and can take as long as they want...BUT when one does make it in, that person passes his/her quarter to the person on their left. Then this person must bounce the quarter in. This goes on until a person gets passed a quarter when s/he already has a quarter. This person then must drink some beer, you choose the amount. Sometimes, depending on the number of people playing, it's better to play with two glasses. Then both the quarter and glass get passed after a successful attempt. --------- Three Man --------- A most excellent good time dice game. Supplies needed are the standars people and beer, plus dice. Check the variation below for additional optional supplies. Everyone sits in a circle. The first order of business is to determine the Three Man. This is done by each player rolling a die in turn. The first to roll a three becomes the Three Man (see below for variation with the Beer Helmut.) The player to the left of the Three Man goes first, and play continues in a clockwise direction. The player then rolls both dice and acts according to the following combinations: 1:1 Doubles - see below 1:2 Three man drinks (sum to 3) 1:3 Three man drinks (three on die) 1:4 Thumb to table or floor (playing surface) 1:5 Index finger to side of nose. 1:6 Player to left of roller drinks (7 left/11 right) 2:2 Doubles - see below 2:3 Three man drinks (three on die) 2:4 Pass turn 2:5 Player to left of roller drinks (7 left/11 right) 2:6 Pass turn 3:3 Doubles - see below; three drinks twice 3:4 Three man drinks; player to left of roller drinks 3:5 Three man drinks 3:6 Three man drinks; Social 4:4 Doubles - see below 4:5 Social 4:6 Pass turn 5:5 Doubles - see below 5:6 Player to right of roller drinks (7 left/11 right) 6:6 Doubles - see below However, if on the Three Man's turn, s/he rolls a three or combination thereof, s/he is no longer the Three Man and then can designate any other player as the new Three Man. (This also includes if the Three Man rolls during a doubles give; see below) Social: Everybody drinks Doubles: The roller has the option of giving both dice to one player or one dice to two players. Whatever the case, the dice are rolled and the number on the dice is what that person(s) have to drink. (ie. roller gives the dice to Y and Z. Y rolls a 3 and Z rolls a five, Y drinks 3, Z drinks 5. Or Y gets both both dice and rolls a 3:5, Y then drinks 8.) However, if the given dice roll to doubles, the original roller has to drink that amount. But the original roller also keeps the turn. To condense everything: Total of 7 - player to right of roller drinks Total of 11- left Total of 9 - Social Any 3 or sum to 3 - Three man drinks 1 and 4 - thumb on floor 1 and 5 - finger on nose Doubles - give 'em away Variation with the Beer Helmut: To make the visual effect of the game more interesting, the Three Man should have to were some some of strange hat, the Beer Helmut. The Helmut could be almost anything that can be worn on the head, orange hunters' hat, lampshade, undergarments, etc. But tradition holds that the Helmut be made from a discarded case of beer, cut so the the handle serves as eyepieces and a nose bridge. Other ornamentation may be freely added, such as a plume from other cardboard or feathers. It should look like something worn into battle. Thus the name, Beer Helmut. When the Three Man no longer is the Three Man due to skillful rolling, part of the ceremony is the passing of the Helmut onto the new Three Man. ------- Thumper ------- Simple game for highly energetic people. Low buzz factor. Required supplies: people and beer. The first thing to do is for each person to choose a hand gesture that they would like to have represent him/her during the game. Can be simple, polite, or sexually enticing, but it must be SHORT. Everyone sits in a circle, everyone starts the game by "drumming" their hands on the table or floor or whatever the playing surface may be. During the drumming, someone says "WHAT"S THE NAME OF THE GAME?" everyone responds with "THUMPER!!!" then the leader says "AND WHY DO WE PLAY THE GAME?" responded with "TO GET FUCKED UP!!" At this point the leader performs his/her own hand gesture, immediately followed by the gesture of any other player. This player then performs his/her own gesture followed by another players, etc.. and so on. When a cue is missed or when someone responds too slowly, the "violator" must drink. This person then is the leader for the next round. Also be creative with what is said during the drumming, it's not limited to the above two questions. You could also call a slo-motion or high speed switch at anytime. The game takes a lot of emotional involvement, good when played when eveyones hyper because there's no where to go, or nothing better to do. ------------- TV Characters ------------- Originally named the "Love Boat Drinking Game." Very fun, with a high buzz factor. Supplies: people, beer, and a tv show with enough different characters for each player. Before the show starts, each player chooses what character s/he will play. For example, if watching the "Love Boat," someone will play the Captain Stuebing, one will play Gopher, another the Doctor, another Isaac, and even someone will be the Pacific Princess. During the show, when ever the character appears _on screen_, the player must drink for the duration of the appearance. If the character is simply referred to without being present, one drink must be taken. Many shows are very well designed for this game. For example, "Cheers" has many characters on screen for long durations. This means that a lot of beer is necessary. -------- Spinners -------- A physically and mentally "challenging" game. Low buzz factor. Supplies: people, beer, and a quarter. A group of people sit around a flat table with one quarter. One person takes the quarter and stands it on edge on the table, holding it with the end of his/her finger. with his other hand, (or with the same hand holding the quarter), he hits the quarter, causing it to spin (like a top) across the table. Immediately after "spinning" the quarter, he/she calls the name of someone else sitting at the table. This person must then do one of two things: 1) stop the quarter from spinning by capturing it (still on edge) with the tip of his/her index finger. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ 2) hit the quarter using his/her finger so that it continues to spin on edge; after which they call someone elses name. If the person who "spins" the quarter causes the quarter to spin off the table when they hit it, he/she must take a drink. If the quarter stops spinning and lands flat before the "receiver" manages to catch or spin the quarter, he/she must drink, and the original "spinner" gets to spin the quarter again. Rules can also be added regarding such things as if the quarter stops, who drinks when it is heads, or when tails. ------------- Suck and Blow ------------- A classic game for the purpose of meeting people, not for getting drunk. Supplies needed: people of both sexes (depending on sexual preference) and something along the lines of a good sized index card or sheet of paper. Everyone sits in a circle, generally male - female. Someone chooses to start, and places the card against his/her lips, then using nothing but air pressure passes it to the person sitting next to him. This person takes the card by sucking on it and attempts to pass it to the next person, of course, never touching the card with hands. If the card is dropped during the exchange, those involved take a drink. Then the game resumes. There is another version where after the card is dropped, it is torn in half, and then the game continues. Eventually, there becomes more lips involved in the exchange than actual card. -------------- Super Quarters -------------- An extension of Quarters, and Speed Quarters. This game has also been referred to as Chandeliers. Supplies: people, beer, many cups, and a quarter. High buzz factor. Take one cup, "the big chug," fill it with beer, and place in center of table. Put a small amount of beer in a cup for each player, and place these cups around the big chug; remember which cup is your own. The game begins with a player attempting to bounce the quarter into any of the cups. If the player misses, s/he must drink the contents of his/her own cup. If the player makes it, whoever's cup the quarter landed in must drink. If the quarter lands in "the big chug," everybody must drink, and the last one to finish must drink the "big chug." --------------- Twenty-One Aces --------------- This is a good game to start in a Bar. Simple, straight-forward, no gray areas. Mid-high buzz factor. Supplies: people in a bar (preferably ones you know, or people you want to know), and five dice. The game is played by counting the "ones" that are rolled. The person who rolls the seventh 'one' gets to pick the shot that will be consumed at the end of the game. The person who rolls the fourteenth "ace" gets the honor of paying for the shot. The person who rolls the twenty-first ace has to drink the shot. Play the game by taking die out of the roll so that you only have one dice left when the twenty-first ace is rolled. For example: Count | # dice rolled ----------------------- 1-16 | 5 17 | 4 18 | 3 19 | 2 20 | 1 21 | You Drink --------------------- Up and Down the River --------------------- Quite an excellent game with a potentially very high buzz factor. Required materials: many people and at least two decks of cards. A good rule of thumb is one deck for six people, than an additional deck for every additional eight to ten people. Everyone sits in a circle, one player is the dealer as well as a participant. Each player is dealt four cards face up, to be kept in front of that player. The dealer then starts 'up the river' by turning over the first card, each player with the same card in front of him/her (suit doesn't matter), must take one drink. If the person has more than one of the same card, it is a drink for each card. The dealer then turns over the next card. Same thing, except this time it is two drinks. The next deal is three drinks, and the the last is four drinks. After the fourth card, the dealer returns 'down the river' by dealing the next card on top of the fourth card dealt. Players with matching cards now GIVE four drinks away in any combination; four to one player, or maybe one drink to four different players. Same situation of the player has more than one of the same card; the player gives drinks for each card. The dealer continues back 'down the river' by dealing the next card on top of the third card dealt. This time players give three cards for each matching card. The next deal is a give of two drinks, and the last deal is a give of one drink. After all the cards are dealt, simply shuffle and deal again. Lastly, the dealer starts turning over cards, while counting from 1 (ace) to 13 (king), if the count and the card turned over are equal in value then all players drink that many drinks. Play continues until everyone is sick of the game, or sick from the beer. ------ Viking ------ Another very simple game, with a low boot factor. No limit on number of players, but more than ten or so is not recommended. The players sit in a circle, one person goes first. The player makes "wiggly viking horns," simply thumbs in, or near, ears and wiggles the remaining fingers for a second or two, then claps both palms together, and points them at any other player. This player then does the "viking horns," but the player on each side of the "viking" must "steer the boat." This entails rowing to whatever side of the Viking the player is sitting on; right of the Viking rows right, left rows the boat left. The Viking then claps both palms together and designates another Viking. This continues until either the designated Viking misses his/her cue, or either rower fails to row the boat in the appropriate direction; whomever fails drinks, and then that person resumes play with "the horns." ---------- Mexicali ---------- Need: 2 dice and a cup to roll them in. Everyone at the table has thier own drink. The object is to shake the dice in the cup, slam it on the table, lift it up and take a peek at the dice (don't let anyone else see them!!) and then announce what you have. There is a lot of bluffing involved because if your roll doesn't top the privious roll you have to drink. If you bluff and get caught, you drink. If you get called on the roll but really have beaten the privious, then the person who called you has to drink. If you bluff and get away with it the dice pass to the next person. The only person who can call your bluff is the person who's roll you are trying to beat. Rolls are based on the two digit number they form when placed side by side (ex. a 3 and a 4 would be "43") or if you throw doubles the value is one die times a hundred (ex. double 2 would cound as "200"). There are also some other special rolls that affect the game: "21" (a 2 and a 1) is called a Mexicali and beats all other rolls (including double 6, or "600"), a "31" is a "reverse" and play goes back the other way around the table, "32" is a "social" and everybody drinks. "Reverse" and "social" both cancel out the previous roll so you don't have to worry about beating the privios guy's score. If you are caught bluffing a Mexicali you have to down the whole drink. To sum: 2-1 "21" Mexicali Beats all 3-1 "31" Reverse 3-2 "32" Social 4-1 "41" 4-2 "42" 4-3 "43" 4-5 "45" 5-1 "51" 5-2 "52" 5-3 "53" 5-4 "54" 6-1 "61" 6-2 "62" 6-3 "63" 6-4 "64" 6-5 "65" 1-1 "100" 2-2 "200" 3-3 "300" 4-4 "400" 5-5 "500" 6-6 "600" When rolling all you have to do is tie the priviou roll, so if a Mexicali is rolled you can either call the guy's bluff or accept it and try to tie it. Optional: Successive Mexicalis double the amount of drink to consume on a challenge or bluff. ---------- The Tower ---------- This is a Swedish game I learned in a bar in Austria. Construct a tower out of the following drinks, placing a cardboard beer coaster between glasses: (in order from bottom to top) 12 oz beer, glass of white wine, tall mixed drink (e.g. Tom Collins), small mixed drink (e.g. whiskey sour), shot of schnapps (or tequila, etc.). Participants roll a die in turn. The first to get a 6 drinks the schnapps. The next to get a 6 removes the coaster that was under it. The next drinks the small drink, the next removes the coaster, and so on. The next to roll always waits to roll until the previous person has drunk (or removed the coaster) EXCEPT when the beer is drunk. When that happens, the game speeds up, because if someone rolls a 6 before the person drinking the beer finishes it, the beer-drinker must pay for the whole tower. If the beer drinker finishes first, then the next person to roll a 6 (the beer drinker is exempt) pays. -------- 1-2-3 -------- I learned this in a bar near Mt. Lassen ski area, in California. Again people roll a die in turn. The first to get a 6 names the drink. The second to get a 6 drinks it. The third, pays! --------------------- Pennies In a Pitcher --------------------- 1.) Everyone chips in and buys a pitcher. 2.) The pitcher is passed around the table clockwise. Each person drinks as much as they want from it. 3.) The person sitting to the right of the one who finishes the pitcher buys the next round. It's simple, but great. (You really have to play a round or two to understand all the subtleties of this game.) A similar version is as follows: Each time a sip is taken, a quarter (or suitable ante) is tossed into the pitcher by the drinker. Whoever chugs the pitcher dry, i.e., drinks for dollars, collects the loot. It could be advised to use nickels vs quarters as, when swallowed, they tend to pass through the digestive system easier. These and many other gnarly beer games are described in the two book series "The Complete Book of Beer Drinking Games", written by three Yale students. The first one is better, very intertaining. ------------- Bouncing Ball ------------- A very interesting and imaginative game. Mid level buzz factor. Supplies: people, beer, and an imaginary ball. Everyone sits around a table. There are only three words that can be said: WHIZ, BOUNCE, and BOING. Someone starts by saying one of the words. WHIZ = the ball passes to next player. BOUNCE = the ball skips the next player and goes to the following player. BOING = ball hits wall and reverses direction. The penalty for errors is drinking. Variation: play with difficult words such as PERFIGLIANO, SCHWARTZ, and a players name. --------------- Beat the Barman --------------- Another game for the insane, very very high buzz factor. As the story goes, nobody has ever won, lost or drawn. Some tips : - don't play it in a crowded bar (you may lose 'your' barman). - Make sure the bar staff are friendly and can take a joke (very important to avoid a draw). - Don't make any plans for the following morning. The steps are very simple : 1 The drinker approaches the bar and orders a shot drink (whisk(e)y, bourbon, vodka, etc., etc..). 2 The drinker pays for the drink with too much money (i.e. hand over a $5-bill for a $2 drink). 3 As the barman goes away to get change, the drinker shoots the shot. 4 When the barman returns with the change, go to step number 1. The game ends in a number of possible ways: - drinker falls over (Result: Bar wins). - barman punches drinker's lights out (Result: Draw). - drinker gets thrown out (Result: Draw). - bar closes (Result: Drinker wins). ------- Beer 99 ------- An interesting card game involving that "new" math. Mid level buzz factor. Supplies: people, beer, and a deck of cards. The object of the game is to play cards into a pile and have the value of the pile equal 99. You start off by dealing four cards to each player, then turn the top card over. Play goes around the circle with each person playing a card, mentally keeping track of total value of the pile. Special cards: King - Kept to avoid drinking or place drinking responsibilities on Someone else, usually used near end of game. Four - used as a skip card when you have none to play, can also be used to skip drinking responsibilities goes. Tens - When in the 90's, this drops the value of pile by 10, otherwise its a regualr card. Socials occur whenever the total equals a number ending in 9. Special socials on 69 and 71. On special you must drink twice. Whoever gets hit with 99 must drink 1/2 glass. After you play a card, draw another from the stack. When out of cards, reshuffle those already played. --------------- Kings and Blood --------------- Simple game, simple rules. Very High buzz factor. Supplies: people, beer (as usual), and a deck o' cards. Shuffle a deck of cards, spread out face down on a table. Place a cup, or some sort of container in center of table. Go around table drawing cards one at a time. If you draw a red card, drink twice. If you draw a black card, don't drink. If you draw ANY king, pour a desired amount of beer into the center cup. Whoever draws the final (fourth) king, must chug the center cup. --------- BEERchesi --------- An adaption of the game Parchesi. If you already know how to play, it's just as easy. If you don't know, learn. Supplies: people how want to play Parchesi, the game itself, and some brew. Low-mid buzz factor. Play the game as usual, if you get sent back, or cannot move, take a drink. It's that easy. Good with two players, each player taking two sets of pieces on opposite corners. ---------- BEERgammon ---------- Another adaptation of board games, this one obviously to Backgammon. A pretty tame game, that just gets tamer. Supplies: you and a partner who wants to play Backgammon, the game itself, and some beverage. Low-mid buzz factor, depending on how fierce the competition is. Play the game as usual. Any time one of your pieces gets sent to the bar, drink. As well, each time you take a piece off the board, drink again. Pretty straightforward. --------------- One Big Chicken --------------- A great bar game, any number of people may play. High buzz factor. Supplies: people and beer, the basics. But what's really important is to have someone who know's all ten phrases. The person who knows all the phrases begins, one phrase a time. The game follows the same routine as the Twelve Days of Christmas. So, the sixth person in the circle would have to repeat the sixth phrase, as well as the previous five. If you mess up a phrase you drink the number of phrases you had to complete, and then start over at the first phrase. This continues until the game is completed, saying all ten without screwing up. The phrases are: 1 Big Chicken 2 Cute Ducks 3 Brown Bears 4 Hairy Running Hares 5 Fat Females Sitting, Sipping scotch, and smoking cigarettes 6 Sheets Slit by Sam the Sheet Slitter 7 Sexy Siamese Sailors sailing the seven seas 8 Echoing egotists echoing egotistical ecstasies 9 Naughty Knocked up Nuns navigating the nigerian desert towards the nunnery 10 fig pluckers plucking figs, I'm not a fig plucker or a fig pluckers son but I'll pluck figs until the fig plucking's done! --------- BEERopoly --------- An adaptation to the classic game of Monopoly, with a slight twist. Buzz factor is very high. Supplies: players, the game itself, and beer. The game is Monopoly, but no money is needed; players use beer instead. Each $100 = a drink (sip usually). The rules of money changing hands is a bit tricky. If a player owes money to the bank or another player, that player that owes drinks. If a player is owed money by the _bank only_ (passing GO, for instance) that player must drink. (a variation is to have everyone ELSE drink when a player should collect money from the bank). All dollar values are rounded UP. (i.e. $2 for Baltic is still one drink). It's a social game, and extra rules should be added as needed. Buying property at the start of the game is the hardest part. But then again, imagine paying $2000 rent on Boardwalk with a hotel! ---------------- ICETRAY QUARTERS ---------------- Supplies: Icetray, beer, a quarter, and people Play follows as regular quarters except you are shooting into an icetray. The right side of the tray is the "give" side and the left side is the "take" side. The number of drinks to be given or taken corresponds to how far away the hole is. One drink for the hole closest to you and then one more for each one further away. You shoot until you miss or hit the "take" side and must drink yourself. --------- S-M-A-S-H --------- A very very very fun game. Very high buzz factor. Supplies: people, beer, and episodes of MASH, the televison show. Simple rules: watch the show, any time a rank is said, drink. (ie. corporal, private, major, etc). ------------ Whales Tales ------------ Very confusing at first, but you'll get the hang out it, enventually. Beer and people with an imagination are needed. Any number of people stand together in a circle & 1 person (the prince of wales) starts by saying... "Whales tales, the prince of wales calls <type of> tales, on a court of <court size>, on <someone>" There are thousands of different types of tales, many of the custom jobs, but I'll list those at the end.... The court size is the number of people counted off from the prince, depending on the type of tales it could be just numbers, letters, etc... when introducing a new type of tales, it is polite to point to each person as you count off the ordinal for them. Once the prince picks someone ('on four') for example that person must say 'nay', the prince then responds 'who', and the person then picks a new person '1' which would be the person next two him, who would respond, 'nay' and the person who said one would then say 'who' and the person who said nay would then pick a new number... here's a graphical? picture: A B C D A: "whales tales, the prince of wales, calls regular rotational tails, on a court of 4 on 2" D: "nay" A: "who" D: "3" B: "nay" D: "who" B: "4" B: "nay,who,1" <- this is legal, generally it is polite to use the sizeof as max D: "nay" B: "who" D: "1" C: "nay" D: "who" and so on.... There are like i said, many variations on the type of tales you can play though generally there are only 3 types of rotation, regular, reverse, & counter regular & reverse are counterclockwise & clockwise & counter oscillates between if it goes to C clockwise, from C it goes counterclockwise... Tales : Regular (1,2,3,4,etc) Greek (Alpha,Beta,Gamma,Delta,etc) <insert foreign language here> Fat Albert (One-ba, two-ba, three-ba, etc Note: all words are -ba'd. ex: on 1-ba, nay-ba!, who-ba?, 3-ba) Jamaican (One-mon, two-mon, three-mon... (See Fat albert for the rest)) Canadian (One-eh, two-eh, three-eh, etc) Also, you can add in speed tales... in which the nay/who lines are removed As in most of the beer games, when you screw up or it takes you too long to respond you drink... The person who drinks becomes the new prince for the next round & gets to call the type of tales, etc. -------- Beer 99 -------- A great game my friend taught me, you start offf by dealing out 4 cards to each player (do not show cards) then you put the rest of the deck down turning the top card over. Special cards: King-(Kept to avoid drinking or place drinking responsibilities on (Someone else, usually used near end of game) Four-(used as a skip card when you have none to play, can also be (used to skip drinking responsibiliteis goes to next player) Tens-(used when approaching 99 or 98,97 only drops points by 10 (otherwise its a regualr card) The object of the game is to reach 99 by adding up the amounts on the cards, you nall know how to add right? Well whoever throughs down the card that equals 99 the next person drinks, unless he or she has a special card King Hopefully, because then you can pick the person you want to drink. Socials: Socials occur whenever the cards = a number ending in 9 Special socials on 69(you know) and 71(69+2 fingers up the ass) On special you must drink twice. Whoever gets hit with 99 and must drink must drink 1/2 glass or whatever is preferrable. Important:cards are held throughout game, only thrown cards are reshuffled, if you lose a card (throw one down and forget to pick one up, your screwwed) Object: to get totally zooted. -------------- Cardinal Puff -------------- I played Cardinal puff many times. The wording we used was slightly different. We said "Cardinal puff, may I begin?" and whoever was a cardinal would say "Yes, you may begin". Then you say: "I am drinking cardinal puff for the very first time tonight". I recall picking up the glass and only holding the pinky away from the glass. The second time, saying "I am drinking cardinal puff puff for the second time tonight" and holding the glass with the pinky and ring finger away from the glass. The third time, I said "I am drinking cardinal puff puff puff for the third and final time tonight". This time I held the glass with the middle, ring, and pinky away from the glass. The rest is the same as the previous poster's version (i.e. tapping the glass once, twice, three times, standing up, etc). We got "bored" of cardinal puff and tried eagle puff. We would have to do the whole thing with one less "glug". Then we did "speed races" trying to go through the cardinal puff sequence without messing up and trying to beat the other players. The first time I played this game, I got all the way to the end and got dinged on not picking up the glass correctly when I was saying "Once a cardinal, always a cardinal". I recall we ran out of the liquor I was using and so they gave me some other concoction the 3rd time around--- I quit after the 4th mishap :-) It's a fun game, but can be brutal if you don't have a lot of people playing (because you learn it by watching and listening to the ones before you, who inevitably mess up somewhere in the sequence...). ----------- Fuzzy Duck ----------- This is a British drinking game called fuzzy duck. It's a good word type game which becomes much harder when pissed. The rules are quite straightforward , the players sit round a table or in a circle on the floor. Each participant has a drink in front of them, we like to do this using small glasses each with a very strong shot in it. The play commences as follows; 1. one player is nominated to start. 2. They either say "FUZZY DUCK" or "DUCKY FUZZ" the choice is theirs. 3. If the first player said "FUZZY DUCK" then the player on their left can either say "FUZZY DUCK" or "DOES HE". 4. If the first player said "DUCKY FUZZ" then the player on their right can either say "DUCKY FUZZ" or "DOES HE". 5. If the second player in either direction repeats the first player then the play passes on to the next person round the table. They can say "FUZZY DUCK"/"DUCKY FUZZ" following the second player or "DOES HE". 6. The phrase "DOES HE" reverses the play around the group ie switches clockwise for anti-clockwise or vice-versa. It also has the effect of changing the phrase so "DUCKY FUZZ" becomes "FUZZY DUCK" and vice-versa. 7. Two people can say "DOES HE" one after another, this has the effect that the play carries on in the same direction as before and with the same phrase. 8. There are only two more rules, you cannot say the same phrase twice in one session. If you said "DUCKY FUZZ" last time and the order of play means that you should say "DUCKY FUZZ" again you must say "DOES HE" so reversing the direction of play and the phrase. 9. If anyone makes any form of mistake in pronunciation or in the order of play,ie saying the same phrase twice, then a forfeit must be payed. Normally this consists of downing your shot in one, any mistakes in carrying out the forfeit can lead to further forfits. O.K it sounds complicated but it isn't to bad if you try it. Below is a simulated game between five people (number 1 to 5 in a clockwise direction), player 1 starts. Player 1. "FUZZY DUCK" 2. "FUZZY DUCK" 3. "FUZZY DUCK" 4. "DOES HE" 3. "DUCKY FUZZ" 2. "DOES HE" 3. "FUZZY DUCK" 4. "FUZZY DUCK" 5. "FUZZY DUCK" 1. "FUZZY DUCK".....Player one is at fault for saying the same phrase twice. They should have said "DOES HE". The game works best if you start a session slowly and gradually build up speed. A session lasts until someone makes a mistake. A small tip watch your pronunciation "DUCKY FUZZ" can quite easily become "F**K HE DOES" and "FUZZY DUCK" becomes "DOES HE F**K". ------------ Kiss-n-Slap ------------ You have to let at least one male/female in on it before you start. Send the guys and girls off into separate rooms. Have the guy and girl who are in on it start by calling in a guy or girl. You line up and whoever's in the front of the line preferably whoever knows the game starts. (now this is where there could be some variation I suppose) The leader says 'now everybody has to do what I do so pay close attention.' The person behind the leader who is "in on it" puts their hands on the leaders hips. So, supposedly whoever is there will do the same to whoever is in front of them. Then the leader turns and kisses the person behind them and this continues until you get to the first person who is new in line. The person in front of them turns and instead of kissing them slaps them in the face. As long as you don't play with anyone really violent it is pretty funny. You continue until everybody has been called out of the rooms. (helps if it is an all couples party or same number of guys and girls attend.) When people get liquored up and play it can be downright hilarious. TRUST ME. -------- Pursuit -------- Group players in a circle. Put any question/answer type game in the center. The game begins by choosing one person as a "chaser" and another as the "runner". The chaser picks a question from the deck and reads it aloud. The runner decides whether to play or pass. If the runner passes then he must drink. Activity cards may make the game more interesting. If the runner answers the question correctly then the chaser has to perform the action on the card. If the runner gets answers wrong then he must do the action. Obviously, it is possible to avoid a 50% possibility of performing an "activity" by simply continuing to pass... but this also means you drink *every* time. Eventually, you might decide to risk it. Now if you are the chaser... you are more or less at the mercy of the runner. Each turn is for only one question, and the runner and chaser position each rotates one person clockwise each turn. Everyone gets to play. ============================================================== | Section 10: Alcoholic Drinks List | ============================================================== Mixology .
