I saw a shot in one of the bar guides at work today that I decided I was going to try when I got home to see if it was worth knowing or not. It's called A Monkey's Lunchbox. You layer Kahlua, Banana Schnapps and Bailey's. I just had about 4 or 5 of them trying to get it to layer the way they showed it in the book, with the banana in the middle. It kept sinking to the bottom, which it actually should being the heaviest of the three. I don't know how they managed to get it in the middle, but it really doesn't make a whole lot of difference.

It'll be a decent chick shot to suggest when the girls don't know what they want. I'll have something to offer them that they are likely unfamiliar with (at least in these parts). And that just makes me look cool and knowledgeable as a bartender.

That sounds yummy. I'd say offer them a Scooby Snack (very good shot), but they might take it the wrong way.

Only if I'm lucky....

My bartending mentor taught a neat little shot/joke to give to the customer who wants you to surprise them. First a quick liquor lesson: Crown is often times refered to in drink names as "pussy", because it is that good.

Now this shot is equal parts Gran Mariner, peach scnapps, and Crown. Serve the shot and afterwords when asked what it is you give tell the name - Grandma's Peach Pussy.

I've heard of Crown and Peach Scnapps as a Southern Peach, I think. Those are good. Not that I know what pussy tastes like, but I love Crown.

First of all, what Seattle knows is coffee, not sweet tea.

Secondly, being in the food service industry in the south I have a question for you sweet tea drinkers: why in the hell when you go into an eating establishment and ask for sweet tea and are informed that they only have regular iced tea do you then proceed to order a Dr. Pepper or whatever (most commonly Dr. Pepper in my experience)? We have fucking sugar on the table. Why not get a regular tea and sweeten it like has been done for, well, forever?

Freaks.

I'll have to look into that, Crown is a Candian whisky; why the name of the drink would be a southern peach seems a bit off to me.

SoCo and peach or bourbon and peach I could see. I dunno'.

I got to thinking about that as I was putting a batch of cookies in the oven. I think it was SoCo. Makes more sense.

Something sweet, but not too much so, is my ever-loved Royal Flush Shot. Crown, Peach Schnapps, and Cranberry juice.
