FUN COCKTAIL RECIPES!
A COCKTAIL is a drink made with wine or other distilled alcohol (vodka, rum, gin, whiskey, brandy, and/or tequila, etc.): a single spirit or several combined, and mixed with other ingredients called “mixers” (soda, soft drinks, fruit juices, liqueurs, cream, spices, and/or fruit) and/or garnished with fruit/vegetables/chocolate/candy. Some cocktails focus on the alcohol content. Other cocktails feature the mixers.
The first mention of the word “cocktail” was in a British newspaper in 1778, hyphenated “cock-tail” and it referred to a ginger drink. The word appeared in a Hudson, New York newspaper “The Balance” in 1806. The word cocktail is most likely derived from the French word “coquetier,” which means “egg cup.” An Egg Cup was a drink mixture of bitters and brandy, served in New Orleans by Antoine Peychaud as early as 1795.
Cocktails are an American invention from the 1800s, inspired by British punch bowls (vats of spirits mixed with fruit juice, spices and other flavors served large bowls in 18th century English pubs and punch houses). By about 1800, a mix of different whiskeys was called a cocktail. New Orleans is considered the birthplace of the first cocktail: the Sazerac.
Happy Hour is usually scheduled between 4 and 6 pm, but times may vary.
Many social and business events are preceded by a cocktail hour.
Cocktail Hour usually happens in the late afternoon or early evening,
The tradition originated in New York City during Prohibition (Jan 17, 1920 – Dec 5, 1933)

A White Russian is simple.
Pour 2 ounces of vodka, 1 ounce of coffee liqueur (or Kahlúa, as The Dude prefers), and 1 ounce of fresh cream over ice in a standard rocks glass. It’s a classic cocktail, though you won’t find it on many menus, probably because its prevalence in modern drinking culture is due in large part to The Dude himself.

Jelly Bean Shot
Ingredients:
1/2 oz Blackberry Brandy (or Grenadine)
1/2 oz Anisette (or Sambuca, anise-flavored liqueur)
1/2 oz Southern Comfort
Directions:
Pour Brandy (or Grenadine) into a tall shot glass
Float the Anisette (or Sambuca) on top of the Brandy
Float the Southern Comfort on top of the Anisette
Serve and enjoy
How to “Float” (Bartending 101):
Hold a bar spoon upside down over the drink and rest the spoon’s tip on the inner edge of the glass, just above the top of the liquid. Slowly pour over the back of the bar spoon and onto the top of the previous ingredient. Move the spoon up as the liquor level rises.
The key is in the three layers of liqueurs: poured on top of each other in order with the heaviest on the bottom and the lightest on top. “Float” the liqueurs by pouring them over the back of a bar spoon. This creates a pretty triple-layered shot. The ingredients have specific densities that make the separation easy. The greater the density difference, the more defined their separation. Density is determined by the sugar and alcohol content. Grenadine is one of the heaviest mixers used for cocktails and will almost always sink to the bottom of the glass, even if it is the last ingredient added.
NOTE: The Anisette will give the drink a “black licorice” jelly bean taste.
Jägermeister is a type of liqueur called Kräuterlikör (herbal liqueur).
You can substitute it for the Anisette/Sambuca or just do a shot or two of Jäger!
“Jägermeister is a digestif made with 56 herbs and spices. Developed in 1934 by Wilhelm and Curt Mast, it has an alcohol by volume of 35%. The recipe has not changed since its creation and continues to be served in its signature green glass bottle.” – from wikipedia
