Strange
Cocktail Combinations
by: Shauna Hanus
Mixed drinks or cocktails have taken a strange
turn in recent years. In the past it was the worm in the bottom
of the tequila bottle today it's combinations that include everything
from bubblegum to pickled octopus. If you are adventurous and
want to veer from the ordinary here are some combinations to get
your evening started.
Liquor Drinks
* Irish Liquor, Amaretto, cream and mint.
* Grand Marnier with horseradish infused vodka with a rare slice
of beef tenderloin garnish.
* Frangelico, crème de cocoa blended with peanut butter served
over ice. Rum Drinks
* Dark rum blended with peeled and seeded avocado, cream, lime
juice and sugar. Sake Drinks
* Sake, brown sugar, club soda, pineapple juice and celery garnish.
Vodka Drinks
*Potato vodka with garlic stuffed green olives.
* Vanilla vodka, bourbon, vanilla bean paste and lime juice garnished
with fresh rhubarb studded with peppercorns. Martinis * Gin martini
garnished with a pickled octopus.
* Vodka martini blended with frozen espresso.
* Pepper vodka with a dash of hot pepper sauce and garnished with
fresh vegetables.
* Vodka martini that has been infused with bubblegum.
With these cocktail combinations in mind, head out for your evening
on the town and venture into the new cocktails of the twenty first
century. But if by chance these new cocktail combinations are
not in the cards for you remember you can always order a time
tested pilsner.
