Tonight's special comes to you in the form of a simple request.
"I'd like a Red-Headed, but without the Red-Headed." To that, you'd probably first check your blades, then the other patrons. An assassination attempt is certainly imminent. And then the barkeep sighs, and pushes your way a familiar red potion. This is known to the worlds forgotten as a ZONKER. Strong, sweet, and terribly tasty. To mix a Zonker, you'll need some Vodka, fruity liqueur, Amaretto, and Cranberry Juice. 1 oz each of Vodka, Triple Sec, Amaretto, and the Cranberry Juice get tossed into a shaker with ice, and a few shakes later, strained into a glass to enjoy. TASTING NOTES + It's certainly fruity, but... + The triple sec overpowers like nobody's business. + Miraculously, this isn't fruity ENOUGH. + There's too much of that weird cough medicine vibe. This is when The Lady interjects with her own rendition. Consider instead the following: 1 oz Vodka 1 oz Triple Sec 1 oz Amaretto 2 oz Cranberry Juice And suddenly, this is pretty lovely. Add in 1 oz of Peach Schnapps, and you're good to go. For my Lady, one shot's worth is enough here, as it is effectively a dessert at this point. You'll sip down six before you notice the buzz, or suck down a high ball glass of the stuff and feel it for hours. It's simple, sweet, and terribly fruity. Imbibe Responsibly at my table. -Adamus
