This can be used with any white rum but the staple is Bacardi White. Same with the Cuba Libre. Apparently, this was John F Kennedy's favorite cocktail. Let's get into this simple yet complex concoction
This actually sounds really great. I think this would be more appropriate for the Fall more so than the Summer time. Either way, a great shooter recipe!
Really cool to see comparisons between cocktails, spirits, and bitters. We have three today: The Armada Cocktail vs. The Distinguished Gentleman and The Four Centuries Cocktail.
Recipe
1 oz Solerno Blood Orange Liqueur
1 oz Montelobos Mezcal
1/2 oz Small Hand Foods Grenadine

This is a very interesting use of a scotch, banana syrup, and mint to create a very unique mint julep. The Banana influence is obviously derived from Harry Belafonte and his Banana Boat song.
Recipe
Monkey Shoulder Scotch Whisky
Banana Syrup
Fresh Mint

Recipes
2 1/2 oz Gin

Splash of Sprite/7up

This is a pretty ingenious idea if I do say so myself. Now, we've all heard of vodka, gummy bears, but never something such as Rum and Gummy Bears. The people of Drinks with Diablo use the Haribo Cola Gummy Bottles, which when soaked with Rum gives it a nice Rum and Coke Flavor. Pretty nice concept, right?
Recipe
For each package of Cola Bottles,
use 1 to 1.25 oz of rum.
Let soak for at least 24-48 hours
This a really nice alcoholic milkshake for those looking to have fun without packing too many calories and still maintain! Great gluten-free, soy free, and solid for vegans.
I'm a bit late to the party on this post, but it's cool. As we all know, Ciroc has been bootlegged a number of times. Do you remember the Watermelon Ciroc snafu?
Of course, Diddy definitely doesn't want to impugn the brand or shorten the pockets of his 50/50 deal as Global Brand Ambassador and marketer. On the serious side, bootleg alcohol is very unsafe and can cause more than horrible headaches in the morning due to nasty sugar supplies and bad filtration/distillation of the alcohol. Be careful, all you people. Remember, there are only 4 Flavors of Ciroc: Blue Dot, Red Berry, Coconut, and Peach.
Speaking of headaches, please checkout the Aquahydrate by Mark Wahlberg and Diddy to keep yourself hydrated through your workout, your normal day, or your tipsy night out!
Potency to the tee! Bacardi 151 and Everclear is serious room for destruction, but this is even more potent due to even more alcoholic content! One of these and you are good for 24 hours! LOL.
1 1/2oz Vodka
1 1/2oz Rum
1 1/2oz Gin
1 1/2oz Tequila
1 1/2oz Triple Sec
2 1/2oz Bacardi 151
2 1/2oz Everclear
Top with Lemonade
1 oz Coke
Grenadine
If you're into Margarita Recipes, but don't want to full out make one. This is actually decent because it's not that watered down or crazy sugary of a margarita mix. I think if you were to have a pre-made margarita, this would be your best bet. However, I still love a regular margarita. Peep the Margarita Texas.
This is a very interesting recipe and strong, too. It'll def put you on your butt!
Recipes
2 oz Patrón Añejo gold tequila
0.75 oz herbal liqueur (He used Jagermeister)

0.5 oz cane syrup or agave nectar
Garnish: Thai basil sprig (He used Rosemary)
Hey, everyone! It's been a while since I've done a top 10 list or a list of cocktails for the season, but this is a little special. This is about keeping it sexy while still enjoying yourself. Of course, if you really want to be sexy, you should stay away from alcohol totally. But let's be real. We're all human and we all like to go out and party and really wind down our day. Why not keep the drinking a bit less moderate and enjoy them without loaded sugary juices and sodas. Here are some awesome drinks for your pleasure by Redbook's Mommy Mixologist, Kim Haasarud!
