Bottle (750ml) of smooth Vodka
2L of Club Soda
Oranges
Apples
2 Mangos
sugar
salt

+ other common household ingredients of course but no lemons or limes unfortunately :(

I'm thinking it would be best to just drink the vodka straight, or mix it with the club soda. Unless you guys have some other good suggestions?

I'll definitely try it out thanks! What ratio's would you recommend? Just the Vodka + OJ, nothing else?

Eat the apple. Peel and slice the mangos and oranges and place in a sauté pan. Add a bit of sugar to sweeten. Place the vodka in a skillet and ignite. Sauté the fruit over the vodka flame til lightly done. Eat. Use the club soda to wash the pan. Throw the salt over your sholder for good luck and go to bed.

Isn't that usually celery salt and not sugar you rim the glass with?

lol great idea but not what I was going for. Besides I'm not going to ignite a $27 bottle of vodka. It's going in my tummy or nowhere.

you go to war with the army you have, not the army you'd like. ;)

(personal preference, really, but I hate salt-rimmed glasses)

Well looks like a few Vodka Screw drivers it is. Then drink the rest straight. (Well maybe not the whole bottle... then again...)

You are assuming that I'm not lazy and hence would be willing to go out and get other ingredients. Said assumption is wrong.

Let's see post Created on 06/12/2008 09:11 PM. You are asking at 06/12/2008 09:34 PM. That's 20 mins to drink 750ml of Vodka. If you were correct I'd better call 911 fast! No for your info I haven't started yet. If I do drink most of the bottle though you can bet it will take more than 20 mins.

It's to avoid just this sort of horrible situation that I planted a lemon tree and a lime tree in my yard years ago. Endless supply of citrus FTW! (And I agree that screwdrivers are good. I need to plant an orange tree...)

Edit: Oh, and you can take a bite of apple and a shot of vodka and not taste the vodka. Kind of like a lime wedge + salt + a shot of tequila. Try it, you may be surprised.

Ok starting .... NOW. Start your stop watch ironwing!

Vodka was in the freezer cooling down. Bottle is ice cold to the touch now. Got 1/2 a large class of fresh squeezed orange juice, REALLY pulpy yumm yumm. And the club soda.

Gotta plan ahead! Any self-respecting boozer around here has a lemon and a lime tree. ;)

The only weird thing is that limes turn yellow if you leave them on the tree to get fully ripe. It's a slightly disconcerting disconnect between the eyes that say "lemon" and the nose and mouth that says "lime." Hopefully I'll eventually get used to it.

Ok I've drank 1/2 the bottle now. In about 50 mins. Hmm that's fairly quick!
