Pineapple 7Fuck-You-Up Cocktail

Ingredients
Orange Juice
Fresh pineapple
7Up
Ice
Gin
Highball glass

As I mentioned in the recipe for Caribbean-style pulled pork, I invented a cocktail while waiting for the pork to cook, using only ingredients in that recipe with the addition of some gin. My good friend Chelsie, the author of Three Ring Mom, coined the name.
This is sort of a take on an old gin cocktail called an orange blossom, with a nice little pineappley, drunk guy surprise at the end.

The Foghorn

What You Need
Ginger Ale
Gin
Lime juice (fresh or bottled, your choice)
Ice
Highball glass (or suitable tallish glass)
Jigger


My weekly poker nights continue, as does my love of adult beverages. The foghorn is another one from my college days as well as a personal favorite as far as soda-based cocktails go. It has no caffeine and less sugar than your traditional soda based cocktail, which means you can drink as many as you want. As an added bonus, if you drink enough of these you'll start calling them Foghats instead of Foghorns. Drink a few more and all you'll have to do to order one is scream the lyrics to Slow Ride at the barkeep. They'll automatically know what you want. If they don't... fuck 'em, go make it yourself. They'll appreciate your take charge attitude. If they don't... fuck 'em.

The Black Queen

What you need:
Royal Crown Cola
Vanilla flavoring syrup
Canadian whiskey (Black Velvet is preferred, for taste and cost)
Ice
Highball glass (or suitable tallish glass)
Jigger (if you don't all ready have this, kill yourself)

Back in my college days, my drink of choice was Black Velvet Canadian whisky and Vanilla Coke. I like to think I learned more from this fucking drink than I did a good portion of my professors (especially Concepts of Fitness. Seriously, fuck that class). Unfortunately, those fucksticks over at Coke no longer make Vanilla Coke in the preferred two liter bottle. You can only get it in cans, and since I've cut out soda drinking (except for adult beverages), it's a big fucking waste of money for me. I also recently started holding a poker night at my house on Fridays, and it required a signature drink. Thus, the Black Queen was born. Here's how to make it.
