Yojimbo
No! Yo Jimbooo, biatch!
"This isn't the drink I ordered... I am a sad samurai now."
That is is the standard response of the amazingly ignorant types that really need to read a book. Yojimbo is actually a mad film by Akira Kurosawa, the kind that you’d make if you were a bare naked lady. And to celebrate such a film, the only thing that is more appropriate than being inspired to live my life by the philosophical tenets of Bushido and find inner peace through being a tenured swordsman… is to make a drink out of it!
Take that, you wussy Shaolin fighting monks who believe alcohol poison’s the mind and body! No cocktails for you!Glass: Highball
Ingredients:
- 45ml tequila
- 200ml Melon flavoured Ramune
- dash of bitters
Method: Build over ice
Garnish: If you want to get really samurai about it, the only garnish you can use is the severed eyeballs and/or entrail twists of your Patron’s enemies. Assuming you don’t have a patron, a squeezed in slice of blood-orange or two, with maybe a little cocktail sword through it.
