Favorite drinks while bowling?
« on: August 22, 2013, 10:16:38 AM »
I was going to put this in the non-bowling related forum, but it applies to bowling I believe.  Lots of people drink to relax, calm nerves, slow the mental hamsters down, etc.  A lot of people drink different things while they're bowling than they do either beforehand or afterwards, and I was wanting some new ideas.  One of my favorites that the bowl doesn't offer anymore is called a Firecracker 500 (slightly modified).

1 shot Absolut 100
1 shot Bacardi 151
1 shot Wild Turkey
1 shot Southern Comfort
Spritz of Sprite/Sierra Mist
Bit of Grenadine
Bit of Hot Damn

Missing is the green Chartreuse, which they never had, and since the bowl doesn't carry Wild Turkey anymore, sadly I can't get it.  I had them add Hot Damn because it already tasted like cinnamon, and the HD put it over the top.  Had to be served in a tall draught mug, and just one of these got me feeling gooood.  I'm either thick blooded or have a real controlling brain because it takes a lot to get me a good buzz, so I'm looking for something strong so I don't have to drop 20 bucks for a buzz.  I don't like doing shots, comes on too stiff and quick, I like a drink.  And please no one say long island iced tea . .

Rum doesn't like me, I'm more of a whiskey guy.  At the other center I bowl at they have Wild Turkey so I just get that and Coke, but it gets boring.  They could make the Firecracker, but at full price for each of the shots, they'd just assemble it for me.

You should try something with Fireball then.

Maybe a Cinna-rita would do it for you.

Sad thing is that most bowling alleys don't carry Fireball . . but it's still kinda weak

I drink water sometimes. Other times maybe an energy drink. Never alcohol.
The difference between Ordinary and Extraordinary is that little Extra.

I'm boring.  Diet Pepsi, or a Zip Fizz energy drink if I'm tired.
