Worried you drink too much?  Have no fear! These terrible cocktails will put you off your fermented desires in a heartbeat.

I wasn’t always a comedian and in darker times I took to the bar for a little extra cash (Creed cologne and Carmina cordovan shoes aren’t cheap!)  Please enjoy this list of rejected recipes; deemed unsuitable due to tastelessness, offensiveness or general grossness.

“Slutty Mary”

2.5 oz Vodka, 3 oz Tomato juice

Everyone else at the bar gets a drink before you do.

 

“Latke Tonic” 

3 oz Potato Vodka, dollop of sour cream.

Serve with intense guilt.

 

“Cat-a-Tonic”

3 oz Gin, 3 oz Tonic Water,

Serve with massive dose of horse tranquilizers.

 

“Penis Colada”

Don’t even ask about this one….

 

“Storm and Darky”

2 oz Rum, 4 oz Birch Beer, Lime Wedge

Serve with the oppression that persists despite the historical revisionism of those unaffected

 

“MANhattan”

1 oz Sweet Vermouth, 2.5 oz Rye,

Wring out a hand towel of locker room sweat and garnish with a cherry.

 

“WOMANhattan”

~**same as above but bartender gets paid 70 cents on the dollar**~

 

“Skrewdriver”

3 oz Vodka, 3 oz orange juice

Serve in 2 separate glasses

 

 

“Dirty Martina Navratilova”

3 oz Gin, 1.5 oz Vermouth, Olive juice to taste.

Serve in a halved tennis ball.

 

“Masturbation on the Beach”

1.5 oz Vodka, 1.5 oz Schnapps, 3 oz Cranberry juice.

Rim the glass with vaseline and serve with extra cocktail napkins
