The lavender liqueur I got from Topez a few months back has really started to grow on me. Especially as I’m out of the Whiskello I’ve found I’ve started adding it to a lot of things that I normally would think twice about attempting to make flowery.

However, I think I’ve found one use that’s particularly good for it. (more…)

It’s been hard thinking of new drinks lately. Oddly enough, as an unemployed bum that does sand up comedy, I’m actually drinking a lot less. Not because I can’t afford to (I still have more than enough booze to land a small football team a trip to hospital for severe alcohol poisoning)… I just happen to associate alcohol with good times.

I had one of those last week when I went for a job interview for a job I was really keen for. I felt it went well, and threw together a drink that I think worked nicely. (more…)

So DoujiCon is coming up, and I thought, why not try to go to theme here… after all, next week I’m not really going to have time to make many drinks, just down them, as I frantically attempt to get shit sorted for the unholy matrimony between DoujiCon and the Melbourne Anime Festival‘s Minifest. I’ve got to say, I’m still massively disappointed at the current lack of “fan art” involving the two mascots.

Anyway, this drink is inspired by a standard Blue Lagoon. It’s a delicious concoction that I would normally not be able to drink due to my adverse reaction to pineapple. However! There’s a delightful pineapple liqueur that a few companies such as Baitz and Marie Brizzard make. If you can find it at a specialty store, like Ackland Cellars, or order some online, you’ll be set… Otherwise just add half a shot of vodka, and some pineapple juice. Results will vary. (more…)

Wow, it’s been ages since I’ve made a new drink. The big problem here is that I’ve been too busy trying new wines or beers, so I haven’t had time to play around with spirits or liqueurs. Also, after a while, everything starts to get very samey-same. You know how it is.

Hmmm, in retrospect, I’ve been amazingly busy and sucking far too much cock lately for too little return. I think this calls for a drink! (more…)
