I have decided to start a new thingy of the indeterminant time period - Iron Bartender.

I have often talked about holding an Iron Bartender party, but I've never been able to generate enough interest (and, more importantly, drinkers) to pull it off. However, after [livejournal.com profile] much_ado's recent post asking for a drink to go with the name "Chinese Fire Drill", I've decided to put my party game on the net.

This is how it works - I will post a drink name, and a theme ingredient. Come up with drinks that work with the name, and try to work in the theme ingredient if possible, though it's not a requirement - fitting the name is more important.

The drink for this round is "Thunder and Lightning". The theme ingredient is blue curacao, because I believe I have two bottles of it right now.

Pez was mentioning that we should have a drunken party some time soon.

Which got me to thinking about something I've been meaning to do for some time now.

Iron Bartender



The basic premise is this; a group of people get together. Everyone takes a turn as a "contestant"; whether or not contestant compete against each other, or just go one at a time depends of how many people you have, and how competitive folks are feeling.

Regardless, everyone except the contestant(s) decide on a theme ingredient (alcoholic or not), and the contestant(s) have to make one or more drinks based on this.

Portions should be small to keep people from getting drunk too fast.

Everyone has to drink what the contestant makes; this should discourage theme ingredients like vinegar and Tabasco.

All drinks must be given names. Someone may want to write down recipes if a drink turns out well.

Drinks should be as close to unique creations as possible; rum and coke is not a worthwhile use of iron bartender.

Comments? questions? Screams of horror?
