Margaritas....mix them in advance.

1 part tequila
1 part triple sec
4 parts sweet and sour
splash of sweetened lime juice

Put in a shaker with ice and shake.
Strain into a lowball glass over crushed ice....it's my preference cause I have a nice refridgerator with a ice crusher. ;)

Depends on how festive a party you are throwing....

In any case, I recommend NOT mixing too many alchohols at once. At the very least you get heartburn the next morning. With that warning in place...

Do you want Girlie Shots? Manly Drinks? Or somethig for everyone?
Girlie Drinks include:
Jaeger Bombs (aka Bull Blasters)
Amereto Sours
Pucker Shots
Jolly Ranchers
Grasshopper/Girl Scout Cookie
Sex with an Alligator/Alligator Bite (or sometimes the word crocodile is used here)
Alabama Slama's

Manly Drinks: Usually straight up or with a chaser...
Vodka
Whiskey
Gin
Tequila
Rum
Cyclone (love this one as it's tequila and rum mixed already)
Everclear
151


Or drinks for everyone that even the manliest of men won't complain and girls don't usually think they are gross:
Beer
Long Island Ice Teas
Lunchboxes (I LOVE lunchboxes and so many people will outright think it's disgusting hearing what is in it but love the taste when they drink them)
Regular mixed drinks like crown and coke, just mix in the proper proportion for whomever is haivng the drink to their taste.
White Russians
Bulldogs
Martini's (there are girlie martini's like cosmopolitans, and manly ones with lotsa vermouth)
Margarita's





However... you can't go wrong with always having Beer and Smirnoff Ice in the ice chest. Some girls like beer instead of the Smirnoff and some guys (the wierd ones I know) prefer the Smirnoff. Works wonderfully well at just about any back yard party with random guests.

I'm a big fan of Captain Morgan and Ginger Ale. I'm also fond of Tanqueray and Tonic and nice spicy Bloody Mary. All are very easy to mix. I enjoy Tequila best w/o any mixers and everyone can enjoy a cold beer. Wine is good to have around for the pretentious fvcks too...

White Russian,
- 1 1/2 oz Vodka
- 3/4 oz Kahlua
- 3/4 oz Light Cream or Milk

Be sure to add ice too

I like Jagerbombs, as someone else mentioned. I've seen them two ways, drop a shot of Jager into a half can of Red Bull (hence the "bomb" I guess) and chug it. I've also found mixing 1:1 Jager and Redbull in a cup is also good too :)

How to Make

MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMmmm



I've never had homebrew, but I have had do-it-yourself brew. There's a place called Incredibrew in NH that lets you make your own beer, let it ferment at their facilities, and you pick it up when it's all done and ready :) I had a friend who did a new batch every so often and it was GOOD!
