Party Time!!

[Colezy]

Hey Guys!

It's my Dad's 50th birthday in a few weeks and you're all invited.....to give me any suggestions for drinks :p

I'm looking after the alcohol and entertainment side of things and mum is doing food and other things.

I'm mostly after punch/cocktails. People will bring their own, but we're going to provide some extra anyway.

So if any of you have a good recipe or 5 for punch or have a favourite cocktail that you think I should know about, please post away! :D


*EDIT - Of course forumers under the age of 18 wont be posting in this thread, right guys? ;) :p

Yeah beers mixed with beers is good one aye Nicole!

Nah go for the cheap Just Juice mixed with vodka punch, it works everytime.

[Colezy]

Haha, yeah, beer certainly does go down well!
I was thinking something vodka based, so your idea is a start! I think i've got some cocktail sort of books around here somewhere..

[Marv From NZ]

Trust me, do in a big bowl, ihalf just juice mixed with half vodka, it does the trick, and its bloody super tasty!

[private_eye]

jager bombs... though maybe not suitable for a 50th

umm vodka/tequila sunrises... go in this order: ice, vodka/tequila (bout an inch-2 inches) orange juice, then get a spoon, hold it upside down on the side of the glass and run raspberry cordial down it... if you do it right it'll go down to the bottom so it'll be red at the bottom and orange on top. if you're feelin risky u can try it without the spoon... but it probably won't end up that well.

another one is ice, vodka/tequila/gin, raspberry cordial, and lemon squash/lift... go in that order and when you pour the lift in pour it fast the raspberry should stay at the bottom.

vodka lemon lime always goes down a treat as does just your plain old vodka raspberry

[Colezy]

Haha, jager bombs...not so sure that mum and dad will go for them...you never know! :p I haven't had jager in AGES!

I've made tequila sunrises at work before so thats no problem.
The vodka/tequila/gin combo sounds good!

[Lowee]

I agree with Marv, beer beer beer! And none of that cascade toilet water either, only boags will do.

As for vodka based stuff I wouldn't have a clue, anyhow, whatever you make, after 2 or 3 drinks, no one can remember.

Too late. Sorreeeeeee

[Lowee]

Geez, kids these days. Back in my younger days we were too busy for alcohol, playing with marbles and reading Ginger Meggs.

[cdejonge]

Geez, kids these days. Back in my younger days we were too busy for alcohol, playing with marbles and reading Ginger Meggs.I still have marbles. In one of those yellow plastic containers that looked like a mini outdoor bin. Remember you could could them in all different sizes and colours?

Exactly my friend! So why get all fancy and expensive Nicole, when you can be cheap and exploitive and attain the same "end result"?!

[Lowee]

Haha, that almost makes it sound like she's tryin to seduce someone!

[Colezy]

Because:
a) I don't have to pay a single cent for any of it and
b) The more expensive stuff, more often than not, has a higher alcohol content :D :p

I'll see what Mother thinks first, and go from there!

[Marv From NZ]

Haha yeah almost. But knowing Nicole, she'll probably end up seducing some guy anyways! :p

[Kevin]

just mix beer and orange juice.

"borange" the quickest way to throw up ever

Ohhh ahaha! I thought you were paying for the drinks! Guess not. NAH YEAH...go all out then!

[Lowee]

Even the name kinda sounds like someone spewing if you stretch it out.

ROFL! Man i can imagine. Just thinking of that makes me cringe.

[Colezy]

Haha, who knows..then again, most of them will be around my dad's age..soooo maybe not! :p
But then again, if one of you two lovely fellas want to turn up, then who knows what will happen ;)

Oh man. I laughed so hard when I read that. I was even shaking from laughing so hard.
It's true though..

[Kevin]

ROFL! Man i can imagine. Just thinking of that makes me cringe.

the seed has been planted, someone, after reading that, is gonna try it. god speed!

[Marv From NZ]

Lowee's from Tasmania so he'll probably have the best shot! :p I'd catch a plane there if i wasn't so broke. I'd make the punch.

[Marv From NZ]

Yeah probably me, infact i know i'll try it when my beer stock is low. THANKS Kevin! :p

[Colezy]

I'd better book a flight to NZ sometime soon then :p

I'll take Lowee now and visit you later :p

[Marv From NZ]

Or you could swim your lazy arse over here! It's not that far...really.

[Kevin]

i'd take the trip if i had time. it's on my list of places to visit (not "nicoles house", tasmania in general :p )

[Colezy]

Hahaha! But remember I said to you that you could stay here when you come and visit! :p You know you want too!

[Neryssah]

just mix beer and orange juice.

"borange" the quickest way to throw up ever

[Steph Format]

the only punch I'm familiar with is jungle juice - fruit punch and vodka (or everclear), possibly with chunks of fruit floating in it. stir and enjoy.


I'm sure there's plenty of cocktail recipes floating around on the internet, from actual bartenders rather than us young'uns. the closest thing I've come to 'sophisticated' is pre-mixed appletini stuff (which is surprisingly not bad).

or um, coke and a handle of Jack Daniels if all else fails.

[Mirm]

Best punch = tequila and food colouring.

[Steph Format]

and contrary to what one might believe, capping off several beers with a round of tequila shooters just isn't the way to go.

[Kevin]

speaking of jack daniels, bake a fruit cake, but soak the fruit overnight in a whole bottle of jack daniels, and add some to the cake mix too.

it will be a sure hit :)

[damo0945]

is it margheritas with the salt around the edge of the glass? theyre not bad, expensive tho as it involves 2-3 different spirits

[Johnny_Wah]

Better than borange?

[damo0945]

cant say ive ever had/ever even want to have borange, has spew written all over it

[Colezy]

or um, coke and a handle of Jack Daniels if all else fails.
Jack and Coke is already a given..well I've got my own stash of it, anyone else who wants it can get their own :p

[Tyler_who]

I heard this recipe on the tv. Get a bucket of seawater add a small bit of tequila, mix it in a blender and then noone will drink it.

[Colezy]

Dude, the point of this thread is for recipes that people will drink :p

[Johnny_Wah]

Drinkings overrated.

[Kevin]

Drinkings overrated.

i'm mighty impressed that a 13 year old has had enough drinking experience to deem it overrated :D hahaha

[Johnny_Wah]

No, I don't mean alcohol. I mean fruit juices and big Ms.

[Kevin]

gotcha *wink*

[Mirm]

No, I don't mean alcohol. I mean fruit juices and big Ms.


God, youre stupid.

"drinking's overrated"?
Yeah, fuck liquid, i'd rather de-hydrate and die.

[Johnny_Wah]

Hey, I didn't say water :D

[damo0945]

just thought i'd let you all know that borange keeps popping into my head and making me feel ill

[Tyler_who]

That happened to me one time except it wasn't borange, it was bad chinese food i had like 4 months ago now. It was like femented curry deep fried. It makes me sick thinking bout it

[Marv From NZ]

speaking of jack daniels, bake a fruit cake, but soak the fruit overnight in a whole bottle of jack daniels, and add some to the cake mix too.

My friend did that. It's bloody dangerous, that is all i will say lol.

[Marv From NZ]

Hey, I didn't say water :D

Dude you just got OWNED!

[Johnny_Wah]

Dude you just got OWNED!

Ah, you be correct my kiwi crumpet
