i need new alcoholic drinks!!?

Im looking for a new drink mix. Ive tried a lot of them and im looking for a mixed drink and also a shot. points go to whoever can give me an awesome recipe for both.

You’ve got a decent range of drinks there, so it shouldn’t be too hard to find something for you to enjoy! Try these for starters…

* Bella Donna Daiquiri
(apparently this is one of the most popular cocktails in the Bellagio, Las Vegas)

1½ shots Rum
1½ shots Amaretto
½ shot lemon juice
¼ shot sugar syrup

Shake all ingredients with ice, and strain into a chilled glass (and if you want to be hardcore about it, wipe the rim of your glass with a wedge of lemon and then dust with cinnamon)

* Blue Margarita
(this one looks great!)

2 shots Tequila
1 shot Blue Curacao
1 shot lime juice
½ shot sugar syrup

Blend all ingredients with one 12oz scoop of crushed ice, serve with a slice of lime on the rim of the glass.

* Cosmopolitan
(slightly different from the original recipe, this is professional mixologist Simon Difford’s version – much better in my opinion. You’ll need to nip out to the shop for some cranberry juice!)

1 shot Vodka
1 shot Triple Sec
1½ shot cranberry juice
¾ shot lime juice

Shake all ingredients with ice, strain into chilled glass. Garnish with a twist of orange peel.

- – - – -

* Mint Fizz
(again, you’ll need to drop in to the shop, for mint leaves and soda water this time)

7 fresh mint leaves
2 shots Gin
1 shot lime juice
¼ shot Rumple Minze
½ shot sugar syrup
Top up with soda water

Muddle mint leaves in base of shaker. Add other ingredients apart from soda water. Shake with ice and strain into an ice-filled glass. Top up with soda water, lightly stir and garnish with a mint sprig.

NOW FOR YOUR SHOT!!

* Raging Bull

⅓ shot Kahlua
⅓ shot Cointreau
⅓ shot Tequila

Layer the three ingredients in that order in your shot glass (easier to do if the drinks have been chilled first)

Hopefully you like the sound of these suggestions, and feel free to drop me an email if you would like any more.

PB.

EDIT: I forgot to mention that some of these cocktail recipes include sugar syrup. You can buy it in a supermarket, but it’s easy to make your own. Just simmer one cup of water in a saucepan, and stir in two cups of granulated sugar until dissolved. If you store it in the fridge, it should keep for a few months.
