DonCheadle Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 This thread is killin it. But seriously, if there's one drink that every bar I've worked at has had a different attitude about, it's a margarita. I only know one way to make it: awesome. 2-3 oz. top shelf tequila, preferably HERRADURA SILVER 1 oz. cointreau, NOT triple sec. 1 oz. freshly squeezed lime juice/half a lime shake vigorously this is how that shit should be. A strong tart drink with enough tequila that you taste it. there should be no: SOUR MIX ORANGE JUICE SUGAR/SIMPLE SYRUP triple sec is actually ok if you don't have cointreau, but that shit is really disgusting. I work at a few joints that want their margaritas to be all TGIFridays style, so I make em this way: 2 oz well tequila 1 oz triple sec 3 count pour of lime juice splash or 2 of OJ tsp of sugar shake til the ice cuts it into a slushee and pour. this is for women and effeminate dudes who would send back a real margarita.

ElectricitySucks Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 I'm not a rum person at all, but I had a shot of this a weeks ago and was really into it: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonCheadle Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 Gosling's FTW. That's what I use for dark and stormy's although we do not have ginger beer, so I muddle fresh ginger with a dash of lime, then top with ginger ale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
earl broclo ESQ Posted September 2, 2009 Author Share Posted September 2, 2009 Oh man --Dark and Stormy's. That's the drink that pushed me over the edge one night. Between smoking weed and power drinking those things, I doomed myself from the get go. The night ended with me puking all over the back patio of a bar, walking into the bar, yelling the bartenders name before saying "uhh you got a hose back there?" Luckily enough it was 2:30 am and only two people were in the bar. I went back, hosed the place down like a firefighter, then hosed off the puke on my chest and called for a car. Then in the car I got sick and had the dude pull over so I could dry heave out the back window. Between dry heaving and weazing, all I could hear was two girls on the sidewalk saying "Oh no he didn't!" and Nasty mother fucker!" I tipped the driver well, went upstairs and my girlfriend found me laying in the tub with the shower on, dry heaving all over myself at 3 am. She wasn't happy. Dark and Stormy's are not meant for marathon drinking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
christo-f Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 Don Cheedle: My local haunt (shout out to Luga's villa!!) here in Beijing makes the best frozen magaritas. I have no idea what the use and to be honest I really don't want to know either. But their lychee flavoured one is the bombsicle and if you mix their mango and lychee together, you're going on a ride to flavour town, baby! I will go ahead and make the assumption that the booze is mostly fake and made in a basement somewhere, though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobbyMoney Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 this should be the "say your favorite drink then tell one of your recent drunken stories"...thread...

DonCheadle Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 I worked at a place that had blood orange margaritas on the cocktail list. I loved those drinks until the owner got all cheap and started using blood orange puree instead of ordering cases of blood oranges to freshly squeeze into juice. It went something like this: 2 oz. tequila 1 oz. triple sec 1 oz. blood orange juice(which I freshly squeezed at the beginning of each shift, added some sea salt and some simple syrup) The blood orange juice had just enough tartness to work well with the addition of triple sec. Those things were killer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morton Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 That sounds top notch. I had a black berry mojito at a bar in oregon that was remarkable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tails0nE Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 i almost forgot about one of my homies drinks... one day drunk talking on the phone to some female he came up with the "hard root beer float"... not sure if its an actual drink but it goes something like this... - 1 part vanilla flavored vodka.. whichever one you prefer.. - 1 part A&W root beer... - if desired, add a scoop of vanilla ice cream with it... believe it or not that shit was de-motherfucking-licious...

christo-f Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 Blood orange marg, shit man that really does sound good. My French friend just bought me a shot with Gin, Vodka, Tequila and Creme de Menthe. It was fucking horrible. He drinks beer with a shot of creme de menthe in it and smokes menthol cigarettes. However, he is the only true writer I know in this god forsaken shit hole. So I tolerate his girly ways (he could also kickbox the fuck out of me!!). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paintfetish Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 cool to see hendrick's gin mentioned, let alone gin... i just started drinking that stuff, been a gin fan for a while (mostly no.10 for gimmlets, or beefeater if i'm mixing). i use real lime, hendrick's, tonic, and cucumber for garnish. so good! as far as a mixed gin drink, my personal favorite is a Gin Buck 6 parts ginger ale 1 part gin 0.5 parts real lime garnish with lime i found if you're doubling the recipe, don't double the lime juice...and it doesn't hurt to put a splash more gin in it...but that's a good starting balance.

DonCheadle Posted September 12, 2009 Share Posted September 12, 2009 bump it up cuz I just got out of work at the bar. Fuckin Williamsburg hipster animals, I just swept all the coke bags out of the bathroom and patio. Tonight's cocktail: I was making this drink called a "cool hand Luke." Why, you ask? 1oz. white rum 1oz. malibu splash of simple syrup fill with PAUL NEWMAN'S OWN LEMONADE(hence the name) :::shake:::strain over fresh ice in collins glass::: top with 7up float blue curacao garnish with a cherry. bitches go apeshit over it, next summer I'm making them frozen with a blender.

Guest T14K Posted September 12, 2009 Share Posted September 12, 2009 you know if you gather all the coke bags and put them in with a whiskey it's a Whiskey COKE. we do that in san francisco. no biggie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonCheadle Posted September 12, 2009 Share Posted September 12, 2009 captain or sailor jerry + rootbeer = a personal favorite we got a sailor jerry rum runner at one of my bars. I swear, that shit is so smooth in a runner you don't even know you're drinking alcohol. I've seen girls chug those things right after I place it in front of them. *which leads to wasted bitches breaking glasses, Don Cheadle gets the broom and dustpan* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure that would be a hit. They used to have a bar in Williamsburg called "Cokey's" where that actually happened. Speaking of San Fran and bar culture, I fuckin LOVE how they made popular the practice of taking shots of Fernet Branca. I live for that shit, I respect any bar/restaurant that carries it.
