Fell asleep before posting this one. Dark Elf: White rum, cherry liqueur, grenadine. It's a little on the sweet side.

The Seduction Roll: vodka, cranberry juice, grenadine, orange juice, amaretto. This is supposed to be a pitcher's worth, so I had to do math to size it down.
I thought I'd google to see if this was called something else, and it looks like they lifted the recipe straight from: https://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/amaretto-cranberry-kiss-240663
That one was mostly vodka. The others were smaller amounts. A "splash" of grenadine for color. 1/2 oz amaretto. 1oz vodka and 2 oz cranberry. It was more balanced than the Dark Elf above, which was super sweet and cloying
The Orange Creamsickle.
Vodka, triple sec, orange juice, heavy cream. Tastes very much like a slightly boozy Dreamsickle
Banana Cream Pie...basically a rum banana smoothie. This was a lot boozier than I expected. If I make again, I'll use 2 parts cream to 1 part rum instead of vice versa.
Grasshopper: Creme de menthe and creme de cacao with cream. Probably would look more like a grasshopper if I'd bought the leprechaun green artificially colored menthe, but I didn't. So I guess it's a brown grasshopper.
Tastes like a Girl Scouts Thin Mint cookie

If ever there was a sentence that could convince me to displace my Tito's and Sprite, it is the above.
Of all of my cocktails, I probably downed this one the fastest, and was happy that I was out of cream, because I would have probably had 2-3 more.
I thought it was bacon and cheddar?
...though yeah, that doesn't sound like it would make the most appetizing cocktail.

Aug 6, 2016 - I have been making these for eons from an old Pillsbury cookbook, though I have changed the recipe a bit over time. I recently started using the new R

Alien Brain Hemorrhage - Peach schnapps, Bailey's, blue curacao, grenadine. I put a touch too much schnapps, so I couldn't really splash the curacao and grenadine to churn up the Bailey's as much as I wanted.

Magic Mirror: White rum, blue curacao, grenadine, luster dust

How much mana does that restore?
My tests show that the potion seller is scamming, and it casts Feeblemind on the drinker instead.
Potion of Glibness: Lemonade, lime juice, cranberry juice, rum. This one was fruity but balanced, and I couldn't taste the rum at all.
Oooh, that would make me real glib, real fast.
So how do you get it to do that?
stir it.
I feel like it needs a crushed Vivarin, or at least one taken with it, for full effect.

Turn Undead: Lemon juice, vodka, Kahlua. This looks and smells like some kind of cola-and-booze drink. But generic, like Dr. Thunder or Great Value Cola. But it had a lot more flavor than smell, and was tasty, if boozy.
Acid Arrow: Malibu rum, pineapple juice, Jägermeister floating on top
A few of those D&D cocktails call for the light-up lights, so I finally broke down and got some.

Red Mana: Fireball, Seagram's, Luxardo, grenadine
My kid loves using those in his bath. I ain’t gonna lie, if I took baths I’d fill it with those too.
Oh that's fun lookin'
Got a new book for Valentine's Day.
First cocktail: Negroni-Nomicon--gin, vermouth, campari, triple sec, blue curacao. 5oz of liquors, no non-alcoholic ingredients. It made my nose a bit tingly

Tonight's drink is a play on the El Presidente cocktail (the "Hell Residente")...with the addition of Fireball and Irish Whiskey, and blue curacao instead of triple sec. That makes it: Rum, vermouth, blue curacao, fireball, tullemore dew, grenadine. It's...different. Boozy. Tastes of cinnamon and orange with a hint of complexity. These flavors really shouldn't work together. But they kind of do.
Also, I'm noticing this book is a big fan of mixing blue curacao and grenadine to make a drink that's so purple as to be almost black.

Whoops..forgot to post this one, which came between the two dark drinks...
Pallid Carcosa. Pineapple juice, coconut cream, spiced rum, peach schnapps (called for peach moonshine, but no thanks), sweet and sour. Blended with ice.
I'm definitely a fan of these kinds of fruity drinks.

It's been a while.
H. Peach Lovedraft. Guinness, peach schnapps, rum. It's actually a whole lot better than I thought it would be. The peach goes well with the Guinness and cuts a lot of the bitterness of the stout. The beer and rum keep it from being too peachy.
Peach forward when it hits your tongue, but with a lingering stout finish. Not bad at all.

It's Friday!
From the D&D book: Barbarian Rage.
Equal parts dark rum, white rum, Amaretto, Chambord, tequila, Midori, vodka, Malibu, gin, Blue Curacao. 8 oz Monster energy drink.
This is like a long island iced tea in that it doesn't taste boozy at all...but it's super fruity. And at 10 oz of liquor/liqueur. I'm about to be fucked up.
