Bro-mo: A Manly Cosmo

Mixed Drinks with Limoncello , Vodka Limoncello Drinks

The problem with the Cosmo, in my estimation, is that it's association with Sex and the City marks it as a drink for women only. And that's a shame because I love a good martini.

So I set out to fix this injustice. This is definitely the wrong moment in history to take anything away from women, so I'll probably face some minor counter-protesting, but it must be done.

The concoction you see below is pure, unadulterated masculinity--poured into a martini glass. Behold:

Note the proper way to hold the glass. Casual, unafraid of touching the chilled portion of the glass and notice in particular that the pinky finger is NOT sticking out. 

That liquid you see dropping into the glass in the second image? That's testosterone.

There you go lads, you've been liberated.

Keto Diet Detox Lemonade

Mixed Drinks with Limoncello , Vodka Limoncello Drinks

Look, the internet is chock full of blog posts telling you how to get ON the Keto diet, but that's not my bag. I'm here to tell you how to get OFF the Keto diet and detox yourself from all that clean living. 

What you do is you make this cocktail...and then you drink it. 

Sure, there's some lemon juice in there which is unfortunately super healthy. But if you can overlook that you'll see that it also contains plenty of sugar, vodka and of course, limoncello.

Cucumber vodka might also sound healthy as vodka goes, but that's pure shenanigans. I'm positive it's some kind of cucumber flavoring that was developed by a guy in a lab who is trying to figure out how to make vodka 4.2% cheaper to produce. 

Look, the internet is chock full of blog posts telling you how to get ON the Keto diet, but that's not my bag. I'm here to tell you how to get OFF the Keto diet and detox yourself from all that clean living.

Fortunately, those ingredients guarantee the sensation of deliciousness that's been absent from your life experience the whole time you've been on the Keto diet. 

So pour yourself a tall mug of this delectable drink and if someone asks you what you're doing, tell them you're detoxing from the Keto diet. It will confuse the hell out of them.

The Amalfi Mule. You still get to whip out your hammered copper mugs (woohoo!) but this drink is 93% less likely to subvert your presidential elections. It IS still best consumed while shirtless and on horseback, so don't go messing around too much with the original.

Roman Lemonade

Mixed Drinks with Limoncello , Vodka Limoncello Drinks

I've only been to Rome once, and it was during the winter. But if I ever visited in the summer...boy howdy...this would be the first thing I'd drink. 

People love drinks where fluids of two different colors lazily mix in the glass, and that reminds me of Italy. There seemed to be a lot of people just sitting on benches and enjoying life. 

In the US, I think a lot of people would stir this drink. Don't do that! It IS the most efficient way to evenly mix the drink, but you're missing all the art as that red liquid slowly unfolds--creating a show that has never been seen before and will never be seen again in exactly the same way.
