Random: I'll Drink To That
Posted January 21, 2007 9:26 PM
How many times have you planned a party, bought the beer, bought the wine, purchased the food and wondered what alcohol you should get to set the party apart from all others? Or worse than that, you've bought the vodka and the bourbon, but you have no idea what to mix them with. You can jump online and Google a Mojito recipe, but ten sites will give you ten different recipes, and who really has time to try them all to see which one is correct? If only there was a website that posted not only hundreds and hundreds of drink recipes, but also filmed the bartender making them right before our very eyes. Now that would be something to tune in to.

Happily, there exists such a site that has all of your favorite libations and a few you've never heard of, ready to tempt your taste buds. DrinksTV takes its cocktail recipes and mixing very seriously. It not only takes you through the ingredients list, but they actually make the drinks right in front of you explaining exactly what they're doing every step of the way. How's that for entertainment right at your fingertips? If there's any negative thing to discuss about the site it would be that sometimes the video loading process takes a moment, but before I get on them about that, it very well could be my lackadaisical wireless connection or my "several" years-old Mac. I dunno, but the delays weren't too bad and very well worth the wait. I can now make a Bahama Mama better than the average, um, Bahamian bartender. You know what I mean. Still need some more tangible help? Try The Ultimate Bar Book as a gift for him for your next big fiesta, Valentine's day extravaganza...with just you and your girl, yes a few cocktails definitely make you look better, big boy. Pinkies up!
