DID SOMEONE SAY...DRINK????


When you're in the mood to take a drink on the wild side, try one of these radical new concoctions designed to bend time and alter light. There are no proportions. The alcohol ratio is up to you. Consider these "free will" cocktails.


For those carnivores out there (you know who you are),
who want their meat any way they can get it. Optional garnish: hoof.

This sweet conspiracy between Scotland, Greece and Italy
does the Highland Fling, Hasapiko and Tarantella
all at the same time and on your head.

D.O.A.
Drambuie
Ouzo
Amarett o
Lemon juice
Tonic Water



You won't know what hit you and you won't care.
After a couple of sips, stay away from operating heavy machinery and
negotiating long staircases.

summon forth visions of herbal euphoria and peculiar green dreams.

The milk of human kindness in a glass.
When you need to feed your sweet tooth, reach for something
utterly satisfying and healthy (relatively speaking). Oy la la.

Chocolate Shavings


Sink me, here's the perfect libation after surviving a solitary foray into
the murk, the muck and the mist of a lonely moor.

PEAT BOG NO. 1
Laphroig

Darker than Dostoevsky, more rampant than Rasputin, this black potion
brings together Russia, Ireland, Italy and Mexico in a mad, inexorable embrace.

A hot brew that truly a smokin' sensation.
Get on top of one and lap it up tonight.

Go on...channel your inner drunkard. Stir up some taste-provoking trouble with one of these neo mixings from the edge of reason. Better yet, mix up two and share with your doppelganger.
