Champagne Rainbow – Alcoholic Mixed Drink

June 11, 2008 by · 1 Comment

It’s been a while since I’ve posted a great frozen mixed drink recipe, so I decided I would post a new one today.  This drink isn’t one of my personal favorites as I’m not a big Champagne drinker, however, my wife loves this drink and it seems that women do enjoy this drink more than the guys out there.

What you need:

  • 1 oz Cranberry Juice
  • 2 scoops Rainbow Sherbet
  • 1 oz Vodka
  • 3/4 oz Peach Schnapps
  • 1 oz Champagne

First blend the Sherbet, Schnapps, and Vodka until smooth.  Next, pour the cranberry juice into a glass and then pour the blended ingredients into the glass over the cranberry juice to produce a swirl effect!  Last, layer the Champagne on top, preferably using a bar spoon to make sure it stays on top and doesn’t mix in with the rest of the ingredients.

Big Chill – Alcoholic Drink

February 21, 2008 by · Leave a Comment

The Big Chill is a great frozen mixed drink that chicks really seem to dig.  This is one of my most served drink when I’m entertaining a member of the opposite sex!  Woman like this drink, yet it still has a strong enough taste that men don’t feel like they are sissy’s for drinking it!

What do I need:

  • 1 1/2 oz Dark Rum
  • 1 oz Pineapple Juice
  • 1 oz Orange Juice
  • 1 oz Cranberry Juice
  • 1 oz Cream of Coconut
  • 1 cup Ice

Place all the ingredients into your blender and mix until it becomes a nice smooth texture.  I personally like to make this drink as thick as possible without any lumps of course.

February 12, 2008 by · Leave a Comment

This is a great drink and while the name says Christmas in it, its actually a great mixed drink for all year long, especially anytime during the winter.  So, in spirit of the giant snowstorm we are experiencing here in the northeast of the United States, we hope you enjoy!

You need:

  • 7 1/2 cups Cranberry juice cocktail
  • 3 3/4 cups Orange juice
  • 22 1/2 ounces Sugar-free lemon-lime pop
  • Bag of Whole Cranberries

Combine the Cranberry and Orange Juices into a large punch bowl.  Next pour the lemon-lime soda down the sides of the punch bowl then simply float the whole cranberries on top of the punch.  You can use as many or as few as you like.  Whatever you think looks the best.

B-24 Bomber – Alcoholic Drink

January 21, 2008 by · Leave a Comment

When is the last time you had a drink that made you sit back and say, “Wow!”  Well, here’s the drink you’ve been missing then.  This drink is made to get you and your friends drunk and to get you there fast!

Lets see what we’re gonna need for this drink to be a slam dunk:

  • 1/2 oz Vodka
  • 1/2 oz Rum
  • 1/2 oz Tequila
  • 1/2 oz Gin
  • 1/2 oz Triple Sec
  • 1 oz Orange Juice
  • 1 oz Pineapple Juice
  • 1 oz Cranberry Juice
  • 1 oz Sour Mix
  • 1 cup Ice
  • 1/4 oz 151-proof Rum

So now that we have that out of the way and you’ve done your shopping let’s get the blender out and let’s mix this bad boy.  Whoever said frozen mixed drinks were for chicks hasn’t tasted the B-24 Bomber before!

This is a fairly easy drink to blend as it doesn’t require you to mix certain things first.  So go ahead and throw everything into the blender except the 151-proof Rum.

Turn the blender on and once you get a smooth texture go ahead and pour your alcohol in your favorite glass and add the 151-proof Rum slowly to the glass so that it floats on top!

Your friends are gonna love you for this drink!
