Bottom Shelf Mixology: Nightmare on Elm Road

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".  

It's almost Halloween, and that means it's time for some spooky cocktails!

Nightmare on Elm Road

• 2 oz Imperial Whiskey
• 2 oz Orange Drink
• 1 squeeze Store Brand Drink Enhancer Liquid (red color)
• Ice

Fill a tall glass with ice.  Pour in the whiskey and the orange drink.  Stir with a knife.

Add in the squeeze of drink enhancer, but don't stir it again.

Drink these non-stop while watching Freddy Vs. Jason, and prepare yourself for the nightmares when you pass out!

Christmas Special Mania '12: Christmas Vacation

It's December, and almost Christmas!  Therefore, I've decided to do a follow up to my surprisingly popular Halloween Movie Madness!  Every night  through Christmas Eve, I will be watching a different Christmas movie or special and then rambling on about them, sometimes even being coherent!  

Christmas Vacation
(Warner Bros. Pictures, 1989)

I have a confession to make: I haven't actually watched this movie in about four years.  Not for lack of wanting though.  We just didn't have the DVD, and while we talked about purchasing it every Christmas season, it just didn't happen.  This year is different though, and now I get to watch the movie with only patchy memories of it.
