Legion World Forums LEGION OUTPOST Mission Monitor Board Rhino's Bar: featuring Legion-inspired libations!

HELP!!
I need all you clever Legion Worlders' assistance in creating Legion drink specials for my job!!
I've created one so far:

The LEETA 87

• 1 1/2ozs. light rum
• 1/2oz. banana puree
• dash of grenadine
• 4ozs. 7up

Serve over ice.

Princess Projectra

• 1 1/2ozs. stoli raspberry
• 1/2oz. bacardi lemon
• dash of cranberry
• 4ozs. sprite

Serve over ice.

Lightning Lad –
1 ½ oz blue curacao
1 ½ oz absolute citron or 1 ½ oz Bacardi limon
2 lemon peel twists
Serve with ice

I wanted something that included the colors of his costume, in addition to having a strong flavor!

FWIW, I intend to try these and report back, so make 'em good.

These are great! I'm gonna make all 3 tom'w at work!!

Dream Girl

• 4oz. champagne
• 1/2oz. Hypnotiq liqueur

Serve in champagne flute.

I dunno' what exactly comprises a "Chameleon Boy," but I'm envisioning something like a reverse Tequila Sunrise, with the orange part shifting around in the glass.

The "Yera" would be the same thing with some kind of deep purple or maroon garnish. Yera always looked awesome in those colors.

If only I had a set of Legion Slurpee cups to serve them in!!

We need to find a sympathetic ceramics maker who'd collaborate with LASH and kidflash2fan! Maybe dedman, too, for the photorealist fans among us.

[clink!]



At least it should be easy to make over some of those little plastic monkeys to look like Koko and/or Beppo.

Oh, just the reminder that Hypnotiq exists makes me nauseous, how could you!

She totally needs something in a fancy glass, 'though, so that's a good call. Something else else clear with something white and cloudy in it?

Wow. Never mind, that sounds disturbing...

Cham does totally call for a layered drink, with different flavors of liquor, so that the more you drink, the more the flavors radically change...

Star Boy
It's a shot:
1. oz Bailey's Irish Cream
.5 oz. "cheap" Tequilla
dash of lemon juice.

Hits your stomach like a lead sinker; only really for stupid college kids.

Any ideas for a "Cosmic Boy's Slap"? I'm thinking it should be really strong.

There was a drink back when I was in bartender's school called a Brass Bull or Bronze Bull or something, served in a copper / brass / bronze mug. That would be neat for a Ferro Lad or Cosmic Boy-themed drink, to serve it in a metal container (even if it's just one of those stainless steel mixers).

Something else else rust-colored? Something else else clear and sharp-tasting, like vodka?

There totally needs to be a Triplicate Girl that either comes as three 1 oz shots, or as a layered drink with 1 oz each of three different liqueurs, one purple, one white and one orange.

I'm having no luck finding decent liqueurs of these colors. I'm pretty sure I would rather use something classy like Chambord for the purple, rather than 'Purple Drank,' but Chambord is too dark, really.

Triplicate Girl

• Equal Parts Absolut Mandarin & OJ, chilled and set aside
• Separate glass flavor whipped cream w/Creme de Banana
• Seperate glass flavor whipped cream w/Chambord

Drain chilled Mandarin mixture in bottom of chilled glass.
Spoon next layer with Banana mixture
Top off with Chambord mixture

Flare

Equal Parts, in a heated coffee mug -

• Brandy
• Kahlua
• Coffee

Stir and light on fire.
Sprinkle with cinnamon.

After the light show, top with whipped cream and serve.

I feel like the Brainiac 5 should be dark with the consistency of motor oil. Is that wrong?

It should be really strong so at least you'll think you're smarter after drinking it.

Yeah, and you could run a spoon through the layers right before serving, so they kind of shift around a bit.

Just so it's not the orange-mauve-yellow combo of layers. I couldn't deal with that.

Here's one I created many years ago when I bartended...I called it a Hellraiser but feel free to call it something else...

HELLRAISER
Over Ice
1 1/2 oz blue cacao
1 oz vodka
1 oz white rum
1 oz triple sec
top with 7-up

^That's much better than what I drank in college: blu cacao & cheap vodka topped with 7-up or Sprite. I called it "Hell Freezes Over" and only drank it because of my then budget (re: no money at all).

Ever since then I don't drink blue alcohol drinks. Until perhaps the Hellraiser?

I was in Midtown Manhattan this week but my stupid clients kept me busy the whole time. I didn't even get time to go to a comic book shop or chat up a hot dog vendor. So no going to Rhino's Bar--yet. It will happen and it shall happen soon!

You mean to tell me I shaved my balls for nothing!!!

I'm sure it was it's own reward, rhino.
