Bottom Shelf Mixology: Pop Rockstar

Welcome to Bottom Shelf Mixology™!  Our staff of Mixologists have racked their brains (and livers) to come up with special "bottom shelf" versions of popular drinks, and some original creations that range from "oh, that might be interesting" to "that sounds absolutely disgusting".  

Pop Rockstar

• 8 oz Rockstar Pure Zero Energy Drink
• 2 oz Popov Vodka
• 1 packet Green Apple Popping Candy

Pour the vodka into your glass.  Slowly pour in the energy drink.

Right before you drink it, pour in the popping candy.

Chug, pop that collar, put on your ladder shades, blow out your hair, and go party with the dudebros!

Bottom Shelf Mixology: Anise Pucker

Welcome to Bottom Shelf Mixology™!  We have racked our brains (and our livers) to come up with special "bottom shelf" versions of popular drinks, and some original creations that range from "oh, that might be interesting" to "that sounds absolutely disgusting".  

This month, we are going to bring you some brand new Bottom Shelf Mixology recipes!  In fact, we are going to do at least ten.

Here is recipe number two.

Anise Pucker

• 1 oz Athena Ouzo
• 1 oz Green Apple Pucker
• 1/4 tsp Powdered Lemonade Drink Mix
• 1/4 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
• Ice

Mix the ouzo, Pucker, powdered lemonade drink mix, and ice in your shaker.  Strain into your glass.

Add in the EVOO.

You can enjoy this drink, even if you are a xeno. A xeno with big, long hair on top of his head!

12 Drinks of Christmas: Stink Stank Stunk

Welcome to Bottom Shelf Mixology™!  Our staff of Mixologists have racked their brains (and livers) to come up with special "bottom shelf" versions of popular drinks, and some original creations that range from "oh, that might be interesting" to "that sounds absolutely disgusting".  

Christmas is in less than a week, and our twisted advent calendar is going to pick up the pace a bit (thanks to falling behind due to Star Wars and the general business of the season).

We roll along today with a drink themed after one of the meanest characters from any Christmas special: The Grinch.

Drink 5: Stink Stank Stunk

• 1 oz Green Apple Pucker
• 1 oz Fireball Whiskey
• 1 Mushroom

Pour the Pucker and cinnamon whiskey into a shot glass, and drop the mushroom into the glass.

A night loaded with these, and you'll start hearing Whos.  Just don't tell people about it.

Bottom Shelf Mixology: Green Monster

Welcome to Bottom Shelf Mixology™!  Our staff of Mixologists have racked their brains (and livers) to come up with special "bottom shelf" versions of popular drinks, and some original creations that range from "oh, that might be interesting" to "that sounds absolutely disgusting".  

Today is National Kale Day, so we thought we would give you our Bottom Shelf version of the Healthy Green Drink.

Green Monster

• 4 oz Crystal Palace Vodka
• 1 12 oz can Dr. Brown's Cel-Ray Soda
• 2 individual cups Store Brand Cinnamon Applesauce
• 3 Tbsp Lemon Pepper Seasoning
• 6 leaves Kale
• 1 Green Apple Blow-Pop 

Process the kale through a juicer.

Add in the lemon pepper, applesauce, celery soda, and vodka.  Unwrap the sucker, and stir.  Leave the sucker in the cup for garnish.

The worst thing in this drink is still the kale.

Dum Dums Holiday Pops Ranked By Flavor

Back in October, while looking through Christmas items at a store (the name of which currently escapes me), I found something I wasn't expecting: Dum Dums Holiday Pops.  I tried a few as soon as I got home from the store... who am I kidding, I opened the bag in the car... and I put them away, waiting until the proper time to talk about them here.

Actually, I was planning on posting about them sometime in November, but I forgot I had them until tonight.  Therefore, the proper time to talk about them is now. 

There are eight holiday flavors in this series: Hot Chocolate, Green Apple Grinch, Apple Cider, Gingerbread, Sugar Cookie, Merry Cherry, Sugar Plum, and Polar Punch.  I am going to tell you which flavors are good, and which flavors suck, starting with the worst.
