Hey guys! Looking for some new mixed drinks I can make at home. What's your favorite and how to make it?
I wouldn't recommend it but back at a party I made a mix of whisky, vodka, orange juice, cranberry juice and a lemon. It was pretty exotic to say the least.
I don't know the proportions, you would have to look it up, but a Moscow Mule with gingerbeer, vodka, and lemon, is really pretty good. It is a drink that is very refreshing, and tastes stronger than it is with the addition of the gingerbeer. I had it once at PF Chang's and thought it was so good, I had to immediately find out how to make it, and mine was almost as good!
One of the best combinations I've ever had was a Peaches and Cream concept. They serve this at a local bar that I go to and I love it! It involves a mixture of vanilla ice cream, rum, peach syrup, and soda water. I know that they add a few other things to it, but I'm not quite sure what it is. You could also do a few flavor mixers with a bagging concept.
That does sound really good. I bet it would work with alot of different fruits. I can defintely see that with apple too. There are a lot of tasty drinks out there. It is too bad they are fattening and expensive for the most part.
I could see it working really well with strawberries. I really love fruit-based mixed drinks. Anything with added cream is simply a bonus. Sadly, with the cream comes the fattening/high calorie ingredients. It's far less expensive to make your own drinks at home, but it's a matter of knowing the proper measurements.
Vodka and the orange lemon juice is how I combine things. And it seems like a good option for anyone who wants to be in mixed drinks. You can see that it tastes good. And also gives a kick on your taste buds. I'd go for that combination.
I think since its getting around Christmas time-I would go with something like a White Salamander Cocktail-which is made up of some irish cream and spiced rum. Fill a rocks glass about 3/4 high with crushed or cracked ice,then pour the spiced rum over the ice and follow with the irish cream,with the amount of sweetness desired !
My favorite drink at the moment is Gin mixed with juice. It tastes so good because you can't really taste the alchohol side of Gin.
