Cocktails - A full comprehensive list of the worlds finest cocktails.

Cocktails play a  fundamental part of getting drunk, when you have had too much to drink already it is all too appealing to fall prey to the calling of soft sweet drinks and dry roasted nuts. A young entrepreneur in the early 12 century realised this and experimented with a quart of ale and some spices to change the flavour, little did he know that his meddling would result in a world of hard core drinkers. Since that day many have mixed and blended drinks in search of the ultimate refreshment. I dare you work through these in one sitting (ChilliSauce.org cannot be held responsible for any liver failure, death, illness etc. for being foolhardy and trying to drink the cocktail bar!)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Atomic Mind Blower

Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 1 bottle of gin
  • 1 bottle of vodka
  • 1 shot Cointreau or Grand Marnier

Method

  • Place bottle of gin and bottle of vodka in freezer overnight, preferably at -18 degrees C or 0 degrees F (don't worry, they do not freeze)
  • Place 1 shot of very cold gin and one shot of very cold vodka into a very cold glass
  • Add one shot of Cointreau or Grand Marnier

Notes

  • Can be drunk or poured over ice cream for a very chilling experience.

 

Black Russian

Ingredients

  • Tia Maria or Kahlua
  • Vodka

Method

  • Mix one-third Tia Maria or Kahlua with two-thirds vodka
  • Add ice

 

Black Velvet

Ingredients

  • Half a pint of Guinness
  • Half a pint of cider

Method

  • Pour the cider into the half a pint of Guinness.

Notes

  • Upon completion of the two being mixed together a mind blowing bittersweet concoction is produced.
  • As the above consists of a pint of liquid going into a pint glass, the first couple of attempts will cause a large amount of froth.
  • The cider should be of one of the stronger varieties.
  • For the rich man's version use champagne instead of cider.

 

Blog: The Minneapolis Blog

Ingredients

  • 4 quarts ginger ale
  • 12 oz (one can) frozen orange juice
  • 12 oz (one can) frozen lemonade
  • 12 oz (one can) frozen limeade
  • 6 oz grenadine
  • 12 oz vodka
  • Lots of ice

Method

  • Mix ingredients in a medium-to-large bucket

Notes

  • If it's going to take you a while to drink it, add the ice gradually.
  • To make St. Paul Blog, leave out the vodka.

 

Bloody Mary

Ingredients

  • Peppar vodka (Absolut is fine) to taste
  • Mixture of Half Tomato Juice and Half V8 Vegetable Juice
  • Tabasco
  • Worcestershire Sauce
  • 2-3 tablespoons of Beer Comsomme (no, really)
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • Celery Salt, if you can find it

Method

  • Serve well mixed over ice with a celery stick, and hope that the world goes away

Notes

  • Tabasco makes an excellent extra spicy Bloody Mary mix when added to grated horseradish. I find that adding some diced garlic and a splash of vinegarette dressing (a nice strong one, not the sugary rubbish) also adds to it nicely, along with a squeeze of lime and a lot of freshly ground black pepper. And then whatever alcohol you prefer.
  • The breakfast of champions!

 

The Brain Haemorrhage

Ingredients

  • Strawberry schnapps
  • Grenadine
  • Bailey's Irish Cream Liqueur

Method

  • Pour 3/4 of an ounce of chilled strawberry schnapps into a glass
  • Plop in a dash of Grenadine
  • Carefully add some chilled Bailey's to the mix
  • Stand back and watch what happens.

Notes

  • If your stomach is still OK with this, drink it down.

 

Cement Mixer

Ingredients

  • 2/3 shot of Baileys
  • 1/3 shot of Rosa's lime juice or cranberry juice

Method

  • Fill a shot glass about 2/3-full with Baileys and top off with the lime or cranberry juice
  • Make sure not to mix them, but let the juice sit in a layer on top of the Baileys
  • Then have the drinker bottoms up and swish around. What happens is that when the Bailey's and Lime/Cranberry Juice mix in their mouth they congeal into a nice thick cement-like substance, hence the name.

Notes

  • I've never tried this one myself but I've seen it drunk by other people and not many seem to enjoy it. It's more of a joke drink to buy for an unsuspecting freshly turned 21-year-old.
  • Or an 18-year-old if you're English.
  • It can also be mixed 'live' in the mouth, preferrably in a dentist's chair.

 

The Chocolate Orange

Ingredients

  • Orange juice
  • Tia Maria

Method

  • Put two measures of Tia Maria into a schooner
  • Top up with orange juice

Notes

  • If you like this, you might like to try the Ghostbuster.

 

Cointreau Caipirinha

Ingredients

  • 2 measures of Cointreau
  • Ice
  • 1 lime

Method

  • Get a couple of handfuls of ice and crush them - don't hold back! You're looking to break the ice down into fine chips - you may find it helpful to put the ice in a plastic bag first so that the bits don't ricochet across the room when you smash them with a mallet...
  • Once you've got the ice, find a solid tumbler and fill it almost to the brim
  • Choose a nice succulent lime, wash it, chop it in half and cut one of the halves into quarters, then squeeze those over the ice in the tumbler
  • Once you've done that, lob the quarters in there as well - they add a lovely splash of colour
  • Pour in a couple of measures of Cointreau, and stir. The drink will take on a slightly cloudy consistency as the water mixes with the essential oils in the Cointreau
  • That's it - sit back and enjoy!

Notes

  • The sharp taste of the lime juice acts as a counterpoint to the underlying metaphor of the sweetness of the Cointreau, making a drink that's particularly refreshing, especially on a hot summer's day.

 

Crazy Finn

Ingredients

  • 500ml 100 proof 'Finlandia' vodka
  • 500ml 100 proof 'Minttu' peppermint schnapps
  • 1000ml 'Sprite' soft drink

Method

  • Chill the ingredients. -10°C should fo fine. This represents the Finnish average summer temperature. Please don't try to chill the Sprite to under 0°C, though, unless you like mopping up sticky stuff from your floor
  • Pour equal amount of vodka and peppermint schnapps into a tall glass
  • Fill up the glass with Sprite and mix well

Notes

  • Guaranteed to make you very happy. Even deliriously so. Watch out for a drowsy side effect if consumed too quickly...

 

Dark Side of The Force

Ingredients

  • Kahula
  • Bailey's Irish Cream
  • Chocolate milk

Method

  • Thoroughly chill all ingredients
  • Just mix to taste in no particular order or amount

Notes

  • Best served in a chilled glass.
  • Best drunk while watching a movie in the privacy of your own home.
  • Even better drunk in a crowded movie theatre.
  • It's called the Dark Side of The Force for its powerful ability to seduce you and blind you (especially in large quantities).

 

Eg Shot

Ingredients

  • After Shock, a red, spicy cinnamon liqueur
  • Bailey's Irish Cream

Method

  • Fill the shot glass 3/4 of the way to the top with After Shock
  • Top the glass up with Bailey's, so that the Bailey's floats on top of the After Shock

Notes

  • Run the Bailey's down the back of the spoon to avoid sinkage
  • The idea of combining Bailey's with After Shock may not appeal to your average drinker, but I suggest trying it first. The Bailey's actually helps prevent the nasty of aftertaste of the After Shock

 

Flaming Dr. Pepper

Ingredients

  • 1 shot of amaretto
  • 1 shot of 151-proof rum
  • 1 glass of beer

Method

  • Top the shot of amaretto with the 151-proof rum and light on fire
  • Drop flaming shot into glass of beer
  • Pound before drink foams all over the place

 

Flaming Lamborghini

Ingredients

  • 1 shot of Kahlua
  • 1 shot of Cointreau
  • 1 shot of Sambuca
  • 1 shot of Green Chartreuse
  • 1 shot of Blue Curacao
  • 1 shot of thickened cream

Method

  • In a large Martini glass layer the Kahlua, Cointreau, Sambuca, and on the top layer Green Chartreuse.
  • Fill a shot glass with Blue Curacao and another with thickened cream.
  • Have a friend - a friend - light the Chartreuse and hold the shot glasses.
  • Dip two straws in the glass and suck immediately.
  • Your friend should add the Blue Curacao while you are drinking, and when you get near the bottom of the glass, the cream.

Notes

  • The purpose of the curacao is a bit of a sweetener.
  • The purpose of the cream is to cool your throat down.
  • The purpose of the drink is to get you smashed in ten minutes.
  • The purpose of buying one for someone else is usually revenge.

 

Frozen Margarita

Ingredients

  • 6 ounces Jose Cuervo margarita mix
  • 2 ounces Cuervo 1800
  • A splash of Orange Curacao (no more than 1/2 ounce)
  • Juice from 1/4 fresh lime

Method

  • Pour the ingredients into a blender, making sure to smell the cork from the tequila. Fill your serving glass with ice, and pour a little at a time into the whirring blender until the ice is finely crushed. Jog the blender every once in a while along the way will knock any stubborn ice chunks down into the blades. You may want to add an additional 1/4 to 1/3 of a glass of ice, depending on your slush preference. Pour carefully and slurp away!
  • For the Cuervo tequila, it seems that a 3 to 1 ratio is best. You may wish to experiment with other tequilas. For example, Don Eduardo's Blue Agave is much smoother and can be mixed 2 to 1. As long as you keep the same ratio, you can vary the amount of tequila and margarita mix to your desired level.
  • If you get a brain freeze from drinking the slush too fast, try holding the glass against your throat, just along your windpipe.

The Gorilla

  • Pour in one inch of whisky (ideally manufactured in a still behind the bar)
  • Turn your back to the bar
  • Throw a coin over your shoulder
  • Fill the tankard to the top with whatever bottle you hit

Notes

A drink invented by conscript soldiers fighting in bush wars in southern Africa. The drink was intended to help them forget the horrors of these pointless conflicts. In fact, this is only surmised: all that they could remember was how to make this drink1.

Green Guinness

Ingredients

  • Crème de Menthe
  • Guinness

Method

  • Put Crème de Menthe in the bottom of a pint glass, to taste and tolerance

  • 7up

Method

  • Lager
  • Cider

Notes

  • It's a glorious pink colour.

  • 1 shot Tequila
  • 1 shot White & Mackay
  • Lemonade
  • Lime to taste

  • MMMmmmmm alcohol... The cause of - and solution to - all life's problems.

 

Alcoholic Komboucha

Ingredients

  • 1/2 pint of really bitter and well-brewed Komboucha (with black scary bits as substance)
  • 1/4 pint of grapefruit juice
  • 1/4 pint of pure alcohol

Method

  • Mix very gently so as not to break-up the black scary bits and leave in the fridge for a week
  • Drink on a cold day

 

The Leveller

Ingredients

  • Double measure vodka
  • Double measure Blue Bols
  • Double measure Cinzano
  • Coconut milk to taste (optional)
  • Feel free to add other flavours, but for the truly stupid, a single (I cannot stress this enough) single measure of absinthe really gives the desired kick.

Method

  • Mix all three spirits in a single tumbler, giving it a stir to ensure the mix
  • Add the coconut milk to taste to take the edge off the poison
  • Drop in the absinthe, if you decide to include it
  • You should have a sort of blue, green, greyish mixture: drink

Notes

  • Preparation time sober: 2 minutes.
  • Preparation time drunk: 2 hours.
  • Despite its revolting appearance, the taste is quite sublime, for about 10 minutes. After that you'll be absolutely plastered, unable to stand or to stop laughing and generally wasted, but in a fantastically good way.
  • Never attempt more than three in one night, and never order one at a bar because the cost equates to size of the hangover... in other words, massive.

  • Chambord
  • Champagne
  • Amaretto

Method

  • Shake equal parts of pineapple juice, Chambord, champagne and Amaretto in some ice
  • Strain into a shot glass

  • 2 measures vodka

  • 2 measures white rum
  • 2 measures dark rum
  • 2 measures tequila
  • Lemon and lime mixer, such as 7up
  • A dash of Coke

  • Add a dash of coke for colour

Notes

  • This ia the recipe for Long Island Iced Tea as prepared at J Augusts Bar, New Brunswick, New Jersey, USA. See the conversation below for variations on the theme.

 

Lunch Drink

Ingredients

  • 1 part leftover cheap red wine (preferrably Rioja, but any old wine will do)
  • 1 part cold Sprite
  • Ice

Method

  • Always pour the wine, and then add the Sprite

Notes

  • This is an old family recipe, so if you're an old family, enjoy...

 

Manhattan

Ingredients

  • Two parts whiskey
  • One part sweet vermouth
  • Grenadine
  • A dash of bitters
  • One cherry

Method

  • Mix the whiskey and vermouth
  • Add a little grenadine and a dash of bitters
  • Put into a glass with cracked ice and shake or stir to your taste
  • Strain into a martini glass, and add a cherry

Notes

  • You can do without the bitters if you want, but if you screw this up (and bartenders do this far to often) you can use the bitters to cover your mistakes.
  • A friend of mine, who is really into the lounge scene, likes all whiskey, only using enough vermouth to rinse the glass with.
  • Some people swear that you should use bourbon instead of whiskey. And why not?

 

The Maypole Martini

Ingredients

  • 1 measure dry vermouth (not extra dry)
  • 1 measure vodka
  • 1 thin slice of lemon peel

Method

  • First fill a cocktail glass with ice.
  • Take one measure each of dry vermouth (not extra dry) and vodka. Mr. Bond had it right regarding the relative merits of shaking and stirring vodka martinis cocktails, so pour both measures into a cocktail shaker and shake vigorously for ten to twenty seconds.
  • Remove the ice from the glass, and empty the contents of the shaker into it.
  • Place a thin slice of lemon peel on top; the thinner the better, since the ideal effect is for it to float. No umbrellas, please.
  • Drink immediately, and suavely. The perfect mix ought to seem to evaporate a bit in your mouth.

Notes

  • The vodka should be Smirnoff, or better still, Stolichnaya. Most of the readily available vodkas in shops aren't especially good - they have a taste. A good vodka has a feel rather than a taste.

 

Mexican Flag

Ingredients

  • 1 shot of Grenadine
  • 1 shot of white tequila
  • 1 shot of Crème de Menthe

Method

  • Layer the shots in the order of the Mexican flag

Notes

  • If you can't remember the order of the colours of the Mexican flag, either consult your bottle of tequila, or experiment until it looks right to you.

 

Mind Eraser

  • 1 measure of Kahlua
  • 1 measure of vodka
  • Soda water

Notes

  • Bwa ha ha ha haaaaa!

 

Modigliani

Ingredients

  • Grenadine
  • Jack Daniels
  • Ice
  • 1 maraschino cherry

Method

  • Chill a Martini glass and fill it with Jack Daniels
  • Add the maraschino cherry
  • Dribble Grenadine around the edge of the glass and drink

Notes

  • Introduced in the late 1990s by an artist named Sarah Gay, this drink is apparently a tribute to some Modigliani painter fellow.
  • You can add more or less Grenadine as your taste prefers.

 

The Monkey F***

Ingredients

  • One pint of good Lager
  • One double shot of whiskey
  • One shot of dry white wine

Method

  • Take one nice full pint of good Lager, and drink about an inch or so's worth. Next add to the pint a double whiskey and dry white wine and drink carefully.

Notes

You wont remember anything past your third one of these little blighters!

  • A shot of Blue Curacao
  • Half a shot of red Grenadine

Ingredients

  • Vodka
  • Archer's peach schnapps
  • Lime

Method

  • Go to Spoofers in Gloucester, England
  • Order one at the bar

Purple People Eater

Ingredients

  • 1/2 glass vodka
  • A dash of cherry brandy
  • A dash of curacao
  • Lemonade

Method

  • Half fill the glass of your choice (preferably a large one) with vodka
  • Add a dash of cherry brandy
  • Add a dash of curacao
  • Top up with lemonade

Notes

  • Once you've had about half of one, that purple colour will look so pretty...

 

Ram Raider

Ingredients

  • 1 part Jack Daniels
  • 1 part Baileys
  • 1 part Ammaretto
  • 1 part Jagermeister

Method

  • Mix ingredients
  • Drink through a straw, quickly...

Notes

  • I usually find that the first unsettles the stomach, especially if drunk after a couple of pints of lager. However, follow it quickly by another and everything will be back to normal again.
  • Three or four of these will be enough to see you waking up on the curb, wondering why you're only a couple of feet from your front door.

 

Raspberry Eglantine

Ingredients

  • Fresh (the fresher the better) raspberries
  • Framboise (or vodka will do)
  • Champagne or anything sparkly (though not lager)

Method

  • Gently crush the raspberries (or roughly if that is your thing) and fill a large, chilled champagne flute up to about a third full
  • Add a little bit of Framboise (or vodka) - not too much, just to enhance the flavour of the fruit
  • Fill the rest of the glass up with champagne

Notes

  • Lip smackingly good I promise.

 

Red Devil

Ingredients

  • 1 pint of lager (Preferably Fosters)
  • 1 Pernod and blackcurrant

Method

  • Drink enough from the pint of lager to make room for the Pernod and blackcurrant
  • Pour the Pernod and blackcurrant into the lager
  • Drink. Slowly.

Notes

  • You can optionally substitute a cider/lager mic for the lager.
  • I tend to find that the drunkeness creeps up on you, then suddenly just poleaxes you out of nowhere. Before you know it you're talking rubbish and walking funny.

 

Red Bull variations

Ingredients

  • 1 double vodka or Jack Daniels
  • 1 can Red Bull
  • Ice

Method

  • Pour Red Bull over spirit and ice

Notes

  • If you like this, you might also like the TVR.
  • Red Bull and vodka gives you wings.
  • Red Bull and Jack Daniels gives you solid rocket boosters.
  • A mix of 1/2 champagne, 1/4 red Bull and 1/4 vodka provides an interesting angle on the whole Red Bull flying experience.

 

Red Devil 2

Ingredients

  • Four shots of vodka
  • One bottle of red (any red alcoholic drink will do, e.g. Bacardi Breezer, Red Square, etc.)
  • Some form of energy drink (e.g. Red Bull etc.)

Method

Simply Add the four shots to a pint glass, Pour in the red and top up with the energy drink.

Warning: this drink promotes memory loss, and costs quite a bit too.

 

Sake Martini

Ingredients

  • 1/4 sake (rice wine)
  • 3/4 vodka
  • Cucumber wedge, curl or other shaped piece

Method

  • Set up as a normal Martini, iced glass and all

  • Pour in the mix and drink away

Notes
