Bottom Shelf Mixology: Moon In Retrograde

Welcome to The Bottom Shelf™!  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".  

Moon In Retrograde (Blue Moon)

• 1 1/4 oz Five O'Clock Gin
• 1/2 oz Blue Curacao 
• 1 1/2 oz Blue Moon ice cream (melted)
• 3 oz syrup from store brand canned pineapple 
• Ice

Stir your pineapple syrup and melted ice cream together in your glass.  Add the gin and curacao to your shaker with some ice and gently shake for seven seconds.

Strain from the shaker into the glass and stir together until well mixed.

You should probably drink these less than once in a blue moon.

Bottom Shelf Mixology Episode 5: Bern Down For What

Welcome to the Bottom Shelf Mixology™ video series!  Our staff of Mixologists have decided it would be a good idea to actually test our special "bottom shelf" recipes.  What have we done?

This is the second of our 2016 Presidential Candidate Drinks after Mr. Sanders Fudge himself. Will Princess Bernie lead us through the woods or will the Bottom Shelf Crew get trapped in the brush?

Yes, we know he's effectively done running, but we still wanted to do the drink.  Mostly because we had it planned out before the California Primary.

You can check out the recipe here if you are daring enough.

This is Sherry (Linksliltri4ce) from The Legend of Cosplay signing off for PB&Awesome.

Until next time: Hut!  HYAAA!

Bottom Shelf Mixology: Bern Down for What

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".  

As part of our celebration of Three Years on the Bottom Shelf, our staff of mixologists have started imagining some drinks for the only people we see on TV more than the Kardashians: Presidential Candidates*.

Our third and final drink in the series is based around the long shot that reminds everyone of their quite possibly crazy uncle.

Bern Down for What (Old Vermont)

• 1 1/2 oz Brigadier Gin
• 1/4 oz Lemonade
• 1/4 oz Diet Orange Soda
• 1/2 oz Store Brand Lite Butter Flavored Syrup
• 2 dashes Bitters
• Ice

Pour everything into your shaker, and vigorously shake for thirty seconds.

Strain the drink into your glass (if you are having a party, strain equal parts of the drink into a shot glass for everyone).

This drink is sure to make you feel the burn, in both your gut and your colon.

Bottom Shelf Mixology: Chunky Piña Colada

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".  

Chunky Piña Colada

• 2 oz. Barton Light Rum
• 1 - 8 oz. can of crushed pineapple in syrup (heavy or light)
• 2 oz. coconut milk
• 1/2 cup ice

It's time to enjoy that most wondrous of all tropical drinks: the piña colada!

The rum, coconut milk, ice, and the syrup from the can of pineapple all go into a blender.  Mix well.

Pour the pineapple chunks into your glass.  Then, pour the contents of the blender over the chunks.  Stir well.

We suggest eating this one with a spoon.
