[+18] Discovery/Freelancer Cocktails - Corile - 08-12-2020

If this got truncated in the sidebar and you expected pr0n then very sorry to disappoint you. Go to horny jail.

A few days ago in Discord we thought about making cocktails inspired by Freelancer. Karst suggested a few, but today I made the first one. I have ideas for a few more, but I'm waiting for a shipment of booze to make some new ones.

Photo (click to enlarge)	Name	Ingredients	Notes
	Barrier Pass	• 40ml vodka (Amundsen) • banana juice • dash of raspberry syrup	• You can use more vodka if you're feeling particularly adventurous. • Pre-chill all the ingredients and the glass. This doesn't use any ice (because watered down banana juice is disgusting) so all the chill will be from the ingredients. • Pour the raspberry syrup down the side of the glass so that it gets to the bottom. • For a fun mixology fact, this came about as a variation on a popular Polish shot called Teraz Polska ("Poland Now") which omits the banana juice.
	Shotgun Lynx	• 20ml blue Curaçao (Giffard) • 20ml vodka (Amundsen) • 5ml 12% cream • small dash of Peychaud's bitters	• Put all into a shaker, shake with ice, strain into shot glasses. • The amounts make one shot, but you might as well throw in a bit more.
	Orange Dream	• 20ml mango vodka (Lubelska) • 20ml Danziger Goldwasser • 30ml Dry Vermouth (Martini) • lemon swath	• Put liquids into a shaker, stir with ice. Strain into a glass, garnish with a lemon swath. • I think it would look better in a coup glass instead of a snifter but I don't have any. • The drink is actually very orange in real life, don't know why it turned out yellow in the picture.
	Aoi Iseijin	• 20ml Blue Curaçao (Giffard) • 20ml Chambord • 10ml Creme de Violette (Giffard) • a pinch of red edible glitter	• Put liquids into a shaker, stir with ice. Strain into shot glasses. • Given that it's three liqueurs, this one is very sweet.
	Stealthblade	• 60ml rum (Havana Club 3 year) • 40ml Midori • 100ml apple juice	• You can either stir in a shaker with ice and then pour to a glass or mix in glass with ice. The first method will keep the taste longer (it won't get diluted by melting ice) while the second will keep it cool longer.
	Vergil	• 60ml gin (Lubuski) • 40ml dry vermouth (Martini) • 20ml Danziger Goldwasser • a pinch of silver edible glitter	• Put ingredients into a shaker with ice, stir and strain through a coarse strainer. • Inspired by most ambitious RP project to date, Vergil. • This is basically a glorified martini.

We like cocktails here in our house, so we will try it out next time. Is it banana juice or nectar as I am not sure if I ever saw Banana juice?

Any general advice what cocktails are the best to make at home from your bartending experience?

Former bartender here.

It comes down to your tasting preferences. I suggest trying easy-to-make and 'all-day' cocktails, like Screwdriver, Cosmopolitan or Cuba Libre and it's also good way to practice basic mixing skills.

I guess it's nectar technically although nobody really makes that distinction here.

Depends what spirits you have at home. I spend quite a lot of money on home booze now that there are no bars within walking distance, so I have quite a few but it all just depends on what you have and what you like. You can check Modern Rogue's guide to stocking your home bar, though note the specific brands there are American-centered and you can get a lot of good, cheaper, European alcohol brands, especially for hard liquor. With liqueurs it's a bit more complicated because there is usually a single brand of a particular taste.

If you want any specific tips you can hmu on discord.

I was worried this was porn, because from where I am alcoholism starts way earlier than 18...
