@audrey: I've had Chazcha (sp?) the cane sugar liquor they make those out of. We didn't make cocktails with it, we just chilled it and shot it. Then it shot us. That stuff is poison...sweet, smooth poison.

@Drunk Scriblerian it's called cachaça or pinga, and i can only drink it pure if i'm already drunk (which doesn't really count, because when you're drunk you just don't taste stuff anymore). i admire anyone who can take shots of cachaça and not go into a comma.

capirinha is done with cachaça and capiroska is done with commom vodka;

don't feel bad, that's the normal reaction.

in brazil, pinga is unbelivably cheap (especially if you don't care for the 'quality' of the product you're about to drink), so you can buy a shot in some bar for 0,30. which means, now that i'm thinking about it, that my country is a good place for you to be a poor homeless drunk - you can get shitfaced for lees than 3$. i'm so proud righ now.

Oh good, I feel slightly less like a pussy for getting my face totally creamed by that liquor. I swear, that was worse than the infamous 151 incident.

Holy cow. I was just thinking earlier that's been awhile since Ive seen Justice and hear you are. Awesome.

Thenamelesssamurai would, of course, suggest Camarena. tongue

Indeed I would. If I'm gonna Flanderzie myself when it comes to drink choice, it helps to stay consistent. tongue

Speaking of, did you ever find a bottle of the stuff?

Whiskey, usually Tullamore Dew or Jack Daniels (there's also some off-brand "Scotch" called River Queen here. It's $20 for 1.5 litre, so it's dirt cheap). Lately, I'm also partial to Southern Comfort on the rocks.

I'm avoiding rum since I've noticed that it causes the worst kind of hangover.

Speaking of, did you ever find a bottle of the stuff?

I did, not my favorite in the price range sadly, but still easily identifiable as tequila. The unique taste might be interesting to experiment with a few cocktails, however.

On the topic of tequila, I actually DID get around to creating the T-Virus. I based ingredients off the Zombie and a Margarita with some blue curacao to get the color I wanted (though the orange taste of curacao certainly didn't hurt).

Attempt one.

Yes, it is suppose to look like this.

A little more light to see all ingredients better.

The results turned out really good if someone wants to try a strong margarita.

I still need to upload photos of attempt two, but I scaled it up quite a bit to something close to how a zombie might be served. The result had me pretty buzzed off drink for the rest of the evening.

Recipe more or less as follows:

  • 1/2 part Everclear (I used 195 proof, but something closer to 150 proof might work as this is in place of the Bacardi 151)
  • 1 part triple sec
  • 1 part blue curacao
  • 2 parts Tequila Blanco
  • 1 part Tequila Reposado
  • splash, possibly 1/2 part, maybe one part 1 lime juice (still fiddling with this)

I'm playing with the ratios a bit, but that's about it. Likely to have more alcohol in it than a Zombie as lime is the only juice. One part sugar might also work.

I used Corzo Blanco and Kah Reposado. Kah is 110 proof, so quite a bit more kick than your average tequila.

Triple sec can be the generic stuff you see in the pic, or Cointreau. I used Cointreau for attempt two.

Dude I can drink Everclear 195 right from the bottle, no problem. Stuff is surprisingly smooth.

But the inebriation I get from that stuff is disappointing.

Bailey's is good. Especially when used in place of half and half in white russians.

I dunno who that bartender at the Emilie Autumn show was who made that for me, but God bless her.

I paid for it, so I'm gonna drink it.

Incidentally, I found Hawaiian Punch makes for a great mixer for this cheap tequila.

Attempt 2.

More light.

I got pretty blitzed off just that one drink and remained that way for most the night.

What were the portions for the second attempt? Or were they the same proportions?

Same proportions, pretty much. Though, Cointreau has over twice the alcohol in it as run-of-the-mill triple sec.

I know I've been spending too much time with my drinking buddies because while I was on the pool deck and the wind picked up, my first thought was toget bourbon on the rocks instead of putting on clothes or moving to a sunnier spot. And it got to the point where all I had to do was approach the bar and the bartender would have a glass of Knob Creek ready for me.
