Squid Mixes: Shark Attack
Yup. Next time, a shorter glass.
A shark attack was a great way to use up some of the lemonade from last week's drink (see here). I got the recipe from The New York Bartender's Guide: vodka, lemonade and grenadine. The recipe indicates stirring after pouring everything in the glass. However, if I should ever make it again, I prefer the theatrical effect of the grenadine unstirred - wish I'd taken a picture.
I rather doubt I will make it again, though. Wife's review: a little too cough syrupy.

Maybe if I was a fan of lemonade it would sound more interesting.
ReplyDeleteProbably.
DeleteI like lemonade- but it sounds like this one wasn't a huge hit with you and your wife. Good that you were able to use up the lemonade from the last recipe. I bet the grenadine looked cool when it was mixing in naturally. :)

And more like a shark attack, or the aftermath thereof.
DeleteI so regret not taking a photo. Thought of it. Didn't. Almost worth making the drink again, but not quite. Such is life.
oooooooooo just like when I put some cream into my iced coffee it billow as it lands on the bottom of the glass.
ReplyDeleteI love Lemonade and Limeade.
cheers, parsnip
Yes, perfect comparison.
Deleteyes, your glass bigger than drink...lol...hehehe...
ReplyDeletegrenadine is cool....
It reliable turns everything pink, that's for sure.
