The Italian Christi. Creamy, smooth with hint of tart and berry sweetness. This cocktail is perfect for summery days yet elegant enough for holiday cocktail parties. It is easy, breezy and inviting. The colorful garnish provides aesthetic appeal, scent and charm to a cocktail.

Three Refreshing Cocktails for 4th of July

Posted on July 4, 2011 | 1 Comment

Sorrento Sling

2 measures Limoncello

1 measure Gin

1 measure Fresh Lemon Juice

3 measures Club Soda

Sliced Lemon Wedge Garnish

Combine limoncello, gin and lemon juice in cocktail shaker with ice. Shake to blend and chill. Strain into chilled Collins glass. Top with chilled club soda. Garnish with lemon wedge.

Extremely light and refreshing cocktail. Where Limoncello can often come across rather sweet on the tongue, it feathers out quite nicely in perfect balance with fresh lemon tartness and pleasant gin botanicals. This just might be the ideal adult Lemonade substitute without all the sugary tart fuss. Alternative serve: Sorrento Sling can also be dressed with Brut Champagne rather than Club Soda for more formal affairs.

Scarlet Pimpernel

1 measure Premium Orange Liqueur

1 measure Pimm’s No. 1

1-1/2 measure Cranberry Juice

1-1/2 measure Apple Juice

1/4 measure Fresh Lime Juice

Lime Wheel Garnish

Place ice in highball glass. Build liquids over ice in order given. Stir briefly. Garnish with lime wheel.

Pleasant, light flavor of Pimm’s beneath this fruited long drink. Leans slightly toward the sweet side which could be remedied in a jiff by dialing down the orange liqueur slightly or adding just a wee bit more lime juice for tartness factor. Sure fire winner by far with simple build, cool name and easy, flavorful sipping. Alternative’s: Would also be lovely to try the Scarlet Pimpernel with Aperol, Cynar or Campari in exchange for the Pimm’s No. 1.

Sassy Melon – created by Cheri Loughlin

2 measures Cachaca

3 measures Watermelon Juice

1/2 measure Fresh Lime Juice

Lime Twist Garnish

Place ice in large rocks glass or goblet. Combine liquids over ice. Stir. Garnish with lime twist.

This is perhaps one of the easiest on the fly fruit flavored Caipirinhas imaginable. With watermelon juice now available in ready to pour containers, this drink is merely seconds from construction to relaxation. Alternative:Add 1/2 measure Mad Melon Liqueur and increase Fresh Lime Juice to 3/4 measure.

Friday Night Favorite Shot Recipes

Posted on March 12, 2010 | Leave a comment

Shots are in interesting breed of drink. Many consumed them in youth & continue to do so as Friday night ritual when out with friends. These little gems may also be converted into true cocktails served straight up or on the rocks. Current question asked on The Intoxicologist Facebook Fan page and Intoxicologist Twitter page: What is your current favorite shot flavor or favorite shot you remember consuming from days of youth? Only one shot appeared more than once – Pineapple Upside Down Cake.

Pineapple Upside Down Cake Shot – adaptation by Cheri Loughlin

1/2 ounce Pineapple Vodka

1/4 ounce Godiva White Chocolate Liqueur

1/2 ounce Pineapple Juice

Splash Licor 43

Maraschino Cherry

Drip several drops maraschino cherry juice in bottom of shot glass. Slit bottom of maraschino cherry and prop on rim of shot glass. Set aside. Combine liquid ingredients in a cocktail shaker with ice. Shake to blend and chill. Strain into prepared shot glass.

The current fad sweeping trendy NYC and Cali bars received one mention – the Pickle Back shot. This Intoxicologist is not completely convinced with the long term popularity of the Pickle Back shot yet, but the mind is still open if the spirit is willing. It definitely has not caught on in Middle America or in an Irish bar where I recently discovered locals of Kansas City throw back a double shot referred to as the Bear Shot. The recipient of a Bear Shot first downs an Irish Car Bomb followed quickly by a Jager Bomb. The Jager Bomb consists of a shot of Jagermeister dropped into a glass of Red Bull. This concoction is a regular feature at O’Dowd’s Little Dublin in Kansas City, MO. The bartender says he usually limits customers to one Bear Shot per night.

LAZERLIBBY from Twitter clues us in that “Jack’s Bistro in Baltimore has a Peanut Butter and Jelly shot! It’s awesome!!” Peanut butter is an eternal favorite and classic peanut butter and jelly sandwiches seem to return everyone to memories of youth, freedom and fun days of carefree living. No wonder this shot is such a hit. Though Jack’s recipe isn’t available here, I’ve crafted a version of the Peanut Butter and Jelly Shot and hope hits the spot.

PB&J Shot – created by Cheri Loughlin

1 ounce Frangelico

3/4 ounce Cassis

1/4 part Castries Peanut Liqueur

Combine liquids in a cocktail shaker with ice. Shake. Strain into two shot glasses or one shooter.

The Chocolate Cake shot is another favorite of many. It is the perfect liquid birthday cake in case anyone is out celebrating. Chocolate Cake is mentioned in the Top Ten Popular Shot Recipes post with several more popular shots such as the Buttery Nipple, Tweaked Buttery Nipple and Purple Hooter.

Friday and Saturday nights were designed for smaller sips where this sweet tart concoction is concerned. There are many variations of the Lemon Drop Shot from so simple with just citrus vodka and triple sec to downright involved with citrus vodka, triple sec, sour mix, simple syrup, Rose’s Lime and fresh lemon. The Lemon Drop Shot recipe below uses four ingredients plus optional garnish for quick build and fantastic pucker up lemon drop sweet tart flavor.

Lemon Drop Shot – created by Cheri Loughlin

3/4 ounce Citrus Vodka

1/4 ounce Triple Sec

1/4 ounce Limoncello

1/4 ounce Simply Lemonade

Sugar

Lemon Wedge

Dip half of lemon wedge in sugar. Set aside. Combine liquids in cocktail shaker with ice. Shake to blend and chill. Strain into shot glass. Shoot. Bite lemon and enjoy the sugar.

Three Olives Bubble Vodka reaches wide audiences with its bubblicious bubble gum fruit flavor. Tiffany LaRue Spooner from Facebook mentioned her preference for Three-O Bubble Vodka with Watermelon Pucker. Several Three-O Bubble cocktails and four shots have been designed including the Mad Melon Bubble Gum Shot.

Bob Stafford suggested an interesting Bandana Shot: Fill a shot glass half full with Coke. Spread a bandana tightly over the glass. Float Captain Morgan’s Rum through the top of the bandana. This creates a two layer effect with the Coke chasing the rum leaving one with a nice vanilla and Coke aftertaste… “and a cruddy bandana at the end of the evening.”

Many thanks to everyone who chimed in with favorite shots: Angelique Martin-Osorio, Bob Stafford, Robert H. Dicks II, Neon Lothmann, ilovepapercuts, LAZERLIBBY, John Bartlet, James Anderson, Scott Galbiati, GlaceLuxuryIce, CruiseMaven, Tiffany LaRue Spooner, Danielle Spedale and Robert Haynes-Peterson. Enjoy evenings out, happy hour and a shot now and then, but always sip responsibly.

Black & Blue Below

Posted on August 6, 2009 | Leave a comment

Regal tones and vibrant fruit flavor set this cocktail apart from the crowd. Naked Juice becomes the quick fix when in a rush and muddling is not an option. However, take the time to zest the lemon over the cocktail glass to gain full benefit of the essential oil spray. This adds flavor definition you will undeniably miss if you leave out this significant step. Champagne rounds out the Black & Blue Below with finesse.

2 ounces 42Below Vodka

1-1/2 ounce Naked Black & Blueberry Rush 100% Juice Smoothie

1/2 ounce Limoncello Liqueur

Zest one lemon twist over a martini glass to coat the inside of the glass. Set aside. Combine all ingredients except champagne and lemon twist in a cocktail shaker with ice. Shake to chill.

42BELOW Vodka: Creative Mixer to the Extreme

Posted on March 1, 2009 | Leave a comment

Tasted neat, delicate sweetness initially shines through with barely any aroma in the nose. There is slight silkiness in the texture, but not slippery oiliness that some vodka leans towards. I notice a faint residual edge to it in the finish just at the back of my tongue. 42BELOW Vodka is thin while retaining a fair amount of body making this a high quality mixing vodka. If it makes sense to imagine, 42BELOW lies somewhere between velvet in texture with a slight abrasiveness in the nap so to speak to let you know there is something significant in its nature not to be ignored or considered one of the crowd.

I am a sucker for lemon about now as the winter weather is getting the best of me and wishful thinking will hopefully hurry spring up a little. The Lemon Sorbet Cocktail seemed just the ticket. This is a nice little pucker me up sipper, but I “dashed” a little too much on the sugar syrup. Which begs the question; how much is a dash exactly?

Dash or Splash

Universal terms for miniature amounts. There are roughly 36 dashes in one ounce. When a recipe calls for a flexible amount of dashes, for example 2 – 4 dashes bitters, this denotes you are seasoning to taste. A splash is faintly larger than a dash, but considered to be less and 1/2 ounce.

Lemon Sorbet Cocktail

1-1/2 measure 42BELOW Vodka

1/3 measure Limoncello

1 dash Fresh Lemon Juice

1 dash Simple Syrup

Lemon Zest Garnish

Combine liquid ingredients in a cocktail shaker with ice. Shake to blend and chill. Strain into a chilled cocktail glass. Grate lemon zest on the surface of the cocktail or as 42BELOW suggests “a white orchid if feeling ostentatious.” – Notation: If you prefer tart over sweet, lean a little heavier on your lemon juice dashes and weaker on your sugar syrup dashes.

As a Straight Up Martini with hint of vermouth and lemon twist the 42BELOW fills out with a little more body. The vermouth fine tunes the edges to a much better degree than consuming the vodka neat. 42BELOW Vodka is worthy used in a straight up martini, but preferable as a mixer. The reason is the little after taste in the finish that lingers at the back of the throat. It is not off-putting, but with so many choices on the market tailor made for different purposes, why not use vodka geared more toward what it is best suited for? Use 42BELOW to get creative. Heck, get wild and crazy if you must. The guys at 42BELOW certainly do. One need only look at their Cocktail World Cup competition to see that. They have required participants to parachute out of an airplane and shake their first cocktail upon landing for pity sake. Now that is extreme!

The next Cocktail World Cup will take place early 2010. Keep checking in for details. (And hey 42BELOW…Can I go? Just to photograph, write about it you know and taste the Feijoa and Passion flavors since you play keep away from the USA.) Find more 42BELOW recipes (Summer Breeze, Fresca, Flame of Love to name a few) on their website.

42BELOW Kiwi: Flavor Beyond “Compear”

Posted on February 10, 2009 | Leave a comment

My first impression – Wow! 42BELOW Kiwi vodka really gets the grasp of the kiwi. The aroma is much stronger than expected with the sweetness of the fruit wafting to the nose rather than alcohol burn. Tasted chilled the freshness is clear. Imagery of an unsullied fuzzy kiwi fruit just before slicing instantly comes to mind. However, there is clearly no sweetness to this vodka. As the infused vodka sits for a moment the juicy scent of the kiwi fills the air with pleasant distinction. Ripe, perfect kiwi. The taste buds tickle and the mouth floods with anticipation. If you could only imagine a flawlessly ripened kiwi with its tiny black seeds and succulent emerald flesh waiting to be savored, appreciated for each minute detail of flavor as it converges with the palate; this is the treat your taste buds are in for with 42BELOW Kiwi Vodka.

Asian Garden contains a light sweetness to it, but with a rather odd bitterness that remains long after the liquid has left the tongue. Sip after sip I could not put my finger on the culprit. After all, each of the cocktail ingredients had an agreeable influence on the palate individually. When I finally went back to the original sample shot of kiwi vodka neat the answer became clear. The bitterness lies within the kiwi aftertaste that I somehow missed in the initial sampling.

Asian Garden

1-1/2 measure 42BELOW Kiwifruit

1/3 measure Limoncello

1/3 measure Pineapple Juice

1/4 measure Lime Juice

Lychee Slice Garnish

Chopped Lime leaf

Muddle lychees and lime leaves. Add vodka, limoncello and juice with ice. Shake to blend and chill. Fine strain into chilled cocktail glass. Garnish with lychee slice.

The Red Delicious looks in fact like a tweaked up Cosmopolitan with apple liqueur rather than orange liqueur. I happen to like the Cosmo recipe for the sheer fact it is so diverse and can be fine-tuned, modified, altered and topped off into a variety of scrumptious cocktails. The Red Delicious proves this point. The apple liqueur gives ample sweetness while the touch of lime and cranberry bring in the edginess that help take the bitterness out of the kiwi that I noticed before. My only recommendation for this drink is to up the apple liqueur a tiny amount and decrease the lime juice according to taste.

Red Delicious

1 measure 42BELOW Kiwifruit

1/2 measure Apple Liqueur

1/2 measure Cranberry Juice

1/2 measure Lime Juice

Lime Twist Garnish

Combine liquids in cocktail shaker with ice. Shake to blend and chill. Strain into chilled cocktail glass. Garnish with fresh lime twist.

Beyond Compear

1 measure 42BELOW Kiwifruit Vodka

Dash Amaretto

5 measure Pear Juice

8 Mint Leaves

Mint Sprig Garnish

Place mint leaves, vodka, amaretto in cocktail shaker with ice. Shake to blend. Pour into highball glass. Top with pear juice and additional ice if needed. Garnish with mint sprig.
