Gourmet Gaming Drinks Special

Well it was my birthday last weekend. I threw a party, invited some of my favourite people around, drank copious amounts and then everyone embarrassed themselves by playing Rockband, others gained new respects as the master of Dance Central and some became my enemies when they preformed a Fatality on me.

Unfortunately between sorting the party and being at the party I had no chance to make the gaming based cocktails I wanted to. The booze was there, wedrunkenlyhalf-heartedly attempted some creations (the act of shaking a shaker became very dangerous very quickly) and eventually we receded into simply serving drinks with glow sticks in them. How futuristic. 

These recipes make 1 drink each.

Nuka-Cola Quantum - Fallout 3:

1 Blue Glowstick

Soda Water

1m De Kuyper Blue Curacao

1m Spiced Rum

1m Amaretto

1m Cola-Bottle Infused Vodka

Infusing the Vodka:

1 Empty 250ml Bottle (with a cap)

250ml of Vodka

100g of Cola-Bottle Sweets

1. Fill the bottle with the vodka and add the cola-bottles.
2. Seal the bottle and leave to infuse for at least a day - the longer the better.
3. Strain, then refill the bottle with the cola vodka and seal.

Mix the spirits in a cocktail-shaker and shake, pour into the bottle, top up with soda water and garnish with the glowstick.

Lon-Lon Milk - Legend of Zelda:

2m Amaretto

1m Vodka

0.5m Hazelnut Coffee

1.5m Double Cream

1.5m Milk

Shake all the ingredients in a cocktail-shaker and serve over ice.

Adam and Eve - Bioshock:

1.5m Vodka

1.5m De Kuyper Blue Curacao

1m Lemonade

1m Tia Maria

Cranberry Juice

Drop of Red Food Colouring 

Mix the vodka, blue curacao and lemonade for an Adam and Tia Maria and cranberry for an Eve (I added a drop of red food colouring to give it a denser colour.)

Definitely worthy of the mid-week hang-over I’ll be suffering with tomorrow. Just don’t ingest any of that tempting florescent glow-stick juice.
