Blue Hawaiian gets its name from the beautiful blue of the Pacific Ocean off the coast of Hawaii. Created by Harry Yee at the Hilton Hawaiian Village in 1957 when a sales rep asked him to make a drink using Blue Curaçao liqueur. Curacao is an orange based liqueur that is often colored blue or orange and used extensively in tropical themed drinks. It does have a tie to the Elvis movie “Blue Hawaii” but it is fairly loose in nature. This drink, and like many like it, were an off shoot of the 60’s love of all things Hawaiian and tiki. Having sat at the pool bar at the Hilton Hawaiian Village and looked out over Waikiki Beach, I can see where they got the name.
The Bayou Bomb will hit you just like a bomb when you take this one in a shot. Careful now!
Great for an after dinner drink or just sitting around a table with friends this is a classy tasty drink. Not sure why the name,Bag of Tricks but if that’s the case this drink is in the bag.
It’s a band, it’s a drink, it’s the 80’s. B52’s were and remain popular shooters. There are many variations to this drink; it’s usually layered by hand in a shot or sherry glass. Very tasty and on the too rich sweet side it remains one of the more popular bar shots.
Ass Smacker is a drink that sneaks up on you. It shouldn’t be good but it is. The crème de menthe gives it just the edge it needs to take it past the normal rum and coke. Great counterpoint to the dark rum. Give it a try.
More of a shooter than a cocktail this drink definitely burns on the way down and then again after you swallow hence the name! Afterburner
This drink does take you into a wall at a rapid rate of speed if you drink too many of these! So try 100 Miles Per Hour and keep your eye on the speed.
