Cape Fear Punch

Punch.  An underrated workhorse of the American party-time gathering, punch gave way to the cocktail after prohibition ...ruined literally everything.

In a quest to allow you to hold your own gatherings of pomp, circumstance, and total awesomeness, we bring you one of the most classic punch recipes in America, the punch of the Cape Fear Club.

Also,  Photobucket has turned into a total suckfest, causing massive delays in how fast we can get new posts up.  We won't bother complaining to them, because we don't pay them.  Rather we'll just sigh up to another site, then pay them, then tell photobucket that we're paying another site to host our images.   Until then, enjoy our take on Cape Fear Punch.

Nutmeg.  Just nutmeg.

It takes almost half a day to brew enough tea, cool it down, and store it away to have ready for this punch.  We will forgive you for buying the stuff in a jug.



Don't spend more than $10 on the wine.  It's going in punch... Le terroirs really doesn't matter a whole lot.




This is one where you just want a good old golden rum, aged a bit but not something huge.




Mason Jars.  Is there nothing booze-related they can't do?







Yeah, we really don't own a punchbowl or anything like that.  The only time we pulled it off was with the watermelon thing.

Stay tuned for Summer Sangria.





With photobucket also having crossed the line into total suck, it makes sense to migrate.

Champagne Coctails for Valentine's Day

We're back with a special episode of Pinky Mixology! This episode features love, romance, booze, and a special pair of guest hosts! Making their first appearance here on Pinky Mixolgy are the Nendoroid Panty & Stocking for your enjoyment.

Today, we'll be covering those sparkling wine concoctions that seem to be all the rage these days. Here's how to make one. Also, keep in mind that (if for some reason you actually want to), these can all be made with many non-alcoholic beverages such as sparkling cider like Martinelli's, ginger ale/7up, seltzer water, club soda,  ...but probably not Diet Coke though.



You'll notice that there's a Martinelli's in there. Like I said, you can use that to make a 100% non-alcoholic version of this ...if you're into the tea-total thing. But then again if you are, I don't think you'd be hanging around this site. Anyway, as for other bubbly wine options: The sweetest would be Moscato Frizzante, but the most widely available and easy on the wallet would be Prosecco.






Believe it or not, despite being an insane racist christian fundamentalist prohibition-fixated fun-hating cunt-burger who routinely engaged in the frequent criminal destruction of private property , Carrie Nation was once semi-hittable:


Maybe if she put down God's Big Book of Bad Ideas and got laid more often (or at all), she wouldn't have turned out like this:

Kill it with fire!

Always always add a tiny pinch of salt to this as well.  Without it, you won't taste the awesomeness to its full potential.  This is a good rule to follow for all things that are meant to be sweet.

A Chinoise is also called a China-Cap and is one of those over expensive things they sell at Williams & Sonoma that rich people buy while pretending they're not rich because they're cooking their own food.











Will this be the first of many Nendoroid appearances? ...no. These things can't stand up on their on and slipped and slid around like they were buried in wrist deep Santorum ...see there it is.

Next Time (We're really gonna do Infusions).
