Television Tuesday :: some more Game of Thrones cocktails.

17 Jul

This is fun.  This is how I like to do alcohol: I like to invent weird mixes of things that don’t necessarily make sense but taste good and give them nerdy titles.

Hear Me Roar (House Lannister)
Gin
Orange curaçao
Vanilla schnapps
Orange juice

Proportions are yours for the choosing, ish, but my typical preference is 1/2 shot gin, 1 shot of curaçao, 1 shot of vanilla schnapps, and then fill it with orange juice till the glass is mostly full.  I know some people like more or less gin, so play with that; I always put in a little more vanilla, because as I mentioned before I am a fan of vanilla schnapps.  How much orange juice you use can make it more or less strong too, depending on how you like your drinks flavored.

Hey, by the way, mèimei‘s man friend, I told you I’d put gin in the Hear Me Roar.  Thanks for giving me a starting place.

Ours is the Fury (House Baratheon)
Tequila
Buttershots (butterscotch schnapps)
Diet Coke

I suspect you could make it with regular Coke too, but I don’t drink regular Coke, really, so I made it my way.  Because that’s the point of fun cocktails: you should want to drink them because they taste decent also.  My proportions of choice: approximately 2/3 of a shot of tequila and 1 1/3 shot of buttershots, then add in the diet Coke, then 1/3 more buttershots just in case.
