Home | Food & Drink | Recipes After finding the recipes online, I went shopping, and mixed and tasted (but did not fully consume) about 15 drinks at home over a period of three or four evenings. Then I tried a few more in a local hotel bar. My five favorites follow...I highly recommend them all. At liclubs.com I found the Rasmopolitan. To make it, pour into a glass one ounce of Stoli, half as much Triple Sec, 1/2 an ounce of lime juice (preferably fresh squeezed), and as much cranberry juice as it takes to fill the glass. Stir, garnish with a lime slice, and enjoy. A drink called Sex on the Beach also comes from liclubs.com (a sight I wound up bookmarking). By putting together a half ounce of peach schnapps, a half ounce of vodka, and an ounce each of pineapple juice and cranberry juice you get a very refreshing drink. I shook mine over ice and fell in love after the first sip. Thanks to dreamsmixer.com for the Creamy Root Beer. Simply pour 2 ounces of Dr. Mcgillicuddy's Vanilla Schnapps into a frozen mug filled with ice, fill nearly to the top with root beer, and top off with a spoonful of cream. By now you can tell that I'm not a rough and tumble drink guy, so you shouldn't be surprised that drink number four is a Strawberry Colada. Thanks to frontgate.com for this drink, which contains 1-1/4 ounces of light rum, an ounce of pina colada mix, an ounce of strawberry daiquiri mix, and 1/4 ounce of pineapple juice. Blend it, pour it, and garnish it with an orange slice and a cherry. My final selection is a drink without alcohol. It's important that all events at which alcohol is served offer a non-alcoholic alternative, and this is a great one I found at recipelink.com, a very interesting site. The Butterfinger requires 2 cups of vanilla ice cream, 2/3 of a Butterfinger candy bar, and a quarter cup of milk. Put a ceramic or glass bowl in your freezer for a minimum of a half hour. Also put the candy bar and a 16 ounce glass in the freezer. After everything is frozen, break the Butterfinger into little pieces, and put it to the side while you pour the ice cream and milk into the frozen bowl and stir until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Then add and stir in the Butterfinger pieces and serve in the frozen glass, with a spoon. I would be very surprised if you and your family or guests don't enjoy these drinks as much as I and those who joined me in my taste tests did. If I'm wrong, I can promise you'll find lots of alternatives to suit all tastes on the internet. Article Source: http://www.articlewheel.com
