Cocktail Of The Week: The Letter "L"

                       Little Bastard and La Bomba Cocktails

 

Cocktail week and the choices were Little Bastard and La Bomba.  My friendly little bartender told me about a lethal drink called Liquid Cocaine, but I knew I would be on my keester if I even tried to drink it.

Liquid Cocaine  (feeling brave?)

1/2 oz Bacardi® 151 rum
1/2 oz Goldschlager® cinnamon schnapps
1/2 oz Jagermeister® herbal liqueur

La Bomba

1 1/4 oz gold tequila
3/4 oz Cointreau® orange liqueur
1 1/2 oz pineapple juice
1 1/2 oz orange juice
2 dashes grenadine syrup

Shake all ingredients (except grenadine) with ice 3 times. Pour into sugar rimmed cocktail glass. Add grenadine and garnish with a lime wheel.

Little Bastard  

1 oz Bacardi® white rum
1 oz orange juice
1/2 oz pineapple juice
4 oz 7-Up® soda

Shake ingredients together with ice in a cocktail shaker. Strain into a martini glass filled with ice cubes.

                                                    Little Bastard         

 

                                                                La Bomba      

 

Anything after this was Appletini time...

AMENDMENT:  Thanks to man about town, "Hefe," I was reminded that Little Bastard was also the name of a song by the Ass Ponys.
