Some drinks out there have naughty names.  There are the more common ones like Sex on the Beach and the Slippery Nipple but have you heard of The Affair, The Bikini Line or the Dirty Virgin?  Well, I haven’t and if you’re curious like me, then here they are:
The Dirty Virgin
2 oz Gin
1 oz Dark Cr De Cacao
Mix in a glass with ice.
That’s it!  Whoever drinks that probably won’t be a virgin for long!
The Bikini Line
1/3 oz Vodka
1/3 oz Tia Maria
1/3 oz Chambord
This is a shot.  Consume and enjoy!

You can tell a lot about a girl by the drink that she orders.  Fun, flirty, boring or a stick in the mud; all of these things can be figured out with a bit of investigation.  How do I know?  Because I’m a girl and I know what girls are like.  So the next time you’re on a date with a girl and you can’t quite read her, wait until the waitress comes around.  And take note, because this could determine the outcome of your night.
If she orders Red Wine:
I wouldn’t jump the gun here and assume that she is …read more

So, I know it’s not quite the Holiday season yet, but I just had to check out this drink.
It’s Lon’s Eggnog Martini.

I’m a huge fan of The Simpsons.  Well, who isn’t?  And I’m also a huge fan of drinks!  Again, who isn’t?  So, naturally when I was thinking of a drink to feature today, I instantly thought of the Flaming Homer.  Or the Flaming Moe, depending on whose side you’re on.
This is the drink that made Moe a star and drove a wedge between him and his longtime buddy, Homer.  It brought Aerosmith to Springfield, got Moe chicks and almost got him $1,000,000, too.  So, I think it’s probably a pretty tasty beverage.  Well, there’s only one way to find out.
Here’s …read more

Home bars are kind of a lovely thing. You don’t even know the things you’ll come up with after stocking yours. For example, my new favourite drink came about because I made lemonade. Real lemonade, with the juice of 6 lemons, splenda to taste and about 2 L of water. Trying that out with some Midori Melon Liqueur was an unexpected, yet brilliant, twist. It’s surprisingly green, and surprisingly good.
So, if you want a better stocked bar than mine, currently? (it’s not hard, I promise.) Here’s a few of the things that you need to make sure you have on …read more

Who knew? I found out at VinoCamp.

The drink is described as: "The perfect ’starter drink’ for your night or a special pleasure as a reward at the end of the day." Paris has launched a new "bubbly blonde" drink – which comes in original, passion fruit and strawberry.
Of course she has. She already has her own perfume, jewellery range, shoe collection, bag line and has released a pop album and starred in a bunch of movies.
Bleh. Of all the drinks in the world, I’m gonna go with “no” on this one. Thanks though.
