Inspired by some of the new QOTW answers;
What is your favourite cocktail/punch recipe?


Alt Q: How to play your favourite drinking games.
(, Thu 6 Jan 2011, 17:11, 123 replies, latest was 15 years ago)
I don't know recipes, but I fucking love Long Island Iced Teas, get me ruined.
Alt Q: I don't tend to play them, but the ones where you watch a program/film and drink at prearranged words/phrases/actions amuse me.

Someone recently said about the Jamie Oliver Drinking Game, in which you have to drink every time he starts using olive oil, and keep drinking until he's stopped. Supposedly that got them ruined.

As a rule, I generally refuse to make anything that might resemble a cocktail when I'm at work
However, there are times when you just shove as much booze as you can in a glass and hope for the best. Which is how we happened upon the Glowstick.

Recipe: Take a pint pot. Double vodka, double rum, double archers. Top up with blue WKD and Smirnoff ice, and add just enough orange juice to give it a neon green hue.

alt: Fuck You Pyramid
Make a triangle out of playing cards, one at top, four at bottom, each player gets three cards.
Flip the top card, anyone with the same face or suit can lay down, you call out a persons name "Fuck you TheColonel".
No particular order, the idea is to try to lay a card down before anyone else in order to stay in the game.
When no one else can go, the last persons name to be called has to drink the number of cards that have been thrown. Or they can chug while you count the cards.
Move onto next row, everyone gets cards in order to have three, repeat with each card flipped.

It only happened once
My friend Bam was in charge of making the drink for a guy who'd latched on to us, that nobody liked. We didn't see Bam piss in the drink, because he'd gone into the kitchen to make it. We just assumed he'd dont the standard and chucked a bottle of Tabasco in it to finish it off. We saw him grinning like a complete twat while the guy downed it, and as soon as he finished the drink, Bam told him what he'd done. Projectile vomiting does not even begin to describe what happened next. We agreed then and there that the game was dead and never to be played again. Mainly because we knew that nobody could top that level of disgusting.

I'm also down with the Long Island Iced Tea
Love them.

We played a drinking game imaginatively known as "The Fag Packet Game". You toss a cigarette packet over your pint. If it lands on the side you nominate someone to drink two fingers of their pint (i.e. wrap two fingers around the glass level with the top of the liquid and drink down to the bottom of the fingers). If it lands on the end you nominate someone to drink four fingers of their pint AND make up a new rule (drink standing up, through a straw, sing a song, whatever). If it went off the table (increasingly common) you downed your drink. If it landed flat (as it mostly does) you pass it on to the next person - an optional rule was that you had to drink two fingers of your own pint if that happened.

And that's how three of us drank twelve pints each in two and a half hours.
