1. Peachy Green (“Original Concoction”) 

1. 1 part peach lemonade

2. 1 part iced green tea

3. 1 part dragonberry vodka or rum 

4. Shake in a bottle or cocktail shaker 

5. Enjoy 

Note: the alcohol must form the bottom layer of the ingredients, and mixture can be done according to preference of the consumer. 

1. Peachy Green 2.0 (“Wolfpac Edition”)

1. 1 part peach lemonade

2. 1 part iced green tea

3. 1 part wolfberry vodka or rum

4. Shake in a bottle or cocktail shaker

5. Enjoy 

Note: Once again, alcohol must form the bottom layer. I don’t remember if wolfberry was a vodka or rum. I do remember it was Smirnoff though, so chances are it is the former; the only difference between the two is the flavor of the alcohol.

1. Electric Byronade I (“Kirk’s Surprise Party Edition”)

1. 1 part mango lemonade 

2. 1 part Arizona iced tea (green tea, or any flavor, preferably Arnold Palmer)

3. 1 part blueberry vodka 

4. Shake in a bottle or cocktail shaker

5. Enjoy 

Note: Notice the slightly more specific ingredients. Also, this is the first variation with mango lemonade in the mix. 

1. Electric Byronade II (“Fruit Roll-Up Edition”)

1. 1 part peach or mango lemonade

2. 1 part Pure Leaf sweet iced tea (can be unflavored, or honey green)

3. 1 part blueberry vodka (dragonberry and wolfberry are harder to find. Blueberry is not.)

4. Shake in bottle or cocktail shaker (first time I used a cocktail shaker)

Note: Bottles are much easier to deal with. Barware is a heinous bitch to open up. I should try to be a bartender, since that might help…

1. Tropical Gold 

1. 1 part mango dragonberry juice blend 

2. 1 part iced tea lemonade mixer (forgot the brand name)

3. 1 part original, unflavored Smirnoff vodka 

4. Shake in a bottle or cocktail mixer (this time was another bottle) 

Note: For this experimental variation, I used Alex’s hard plastic travel water bottle, since the cocktail shaker was too difficult to pry open. Unlike the others, this drink has a pinkish hue, due to its different blend of ingredients, as the others were more yellow due to the presence of lemonade. Alex named it, although I think an alternate name was Diablo Sunrise or something. Hmm, maybe I can keep that for a drink that combines tequila and fireball…

1. Enjoy.

1. Fruit Basket 

1. 1 part orange juice

2. 1 part grapefruit juice

3. 1 part original, unflavored Smirnoff vodka

4. Shake in a bottle (scrapping the cocktail mixer idea)

Note: For this variant, I mixed and shook everything up in a Powerade bottle.

1. Enjoy. 

1. Feel the Madness (newest concoction)

1. 1 part cranberry juice

2. 1 part Nos energy drink (tastes like passion fruit?)

3. 1 part Jaeger (maybe) 

4. Shake in a bottle 

5. Enjoy.

Note: Might not actually get Jaeger. 

1. Redheaded Irish Whiskey Ginger

1. 1 part Jameson’s Irish Whiskey

2. 1 part Seagram’s Ginger Ale

3. 1 part Rose’s Grenadine 

4. Combine in a cup and stir or combine in bottle and shake it up

5. Either way, it comes out reddish and does not totally mask the taste of the whiskey.

6. Enjoy.

Note: So called “redheaded” because the Grenadine syrup serves as the top layer. It is essentially an alcoholic Shirley Temple. 

1. The Radtacular Hat Trick

1. 1 part Jameson whiskey 

2. 1 part orange juice

3. 1 part Coke Zero 

4. Stir together over ice

Note: This will come out looking like dirty OJ, but it tastes pretty good. 

1. 7 Gingers 

1. Plunk 7 ice cubes in a glass

2. ½ glass Seagrams 7 Crown Whiskey 

3. ½ glass Seagrams Ginger Ale 

4. Substitute the ginger ale with 7up for a 7 & 7 or sub in Cherry 7up for 7 Cheery Gingers.

1. The Long Haul

1. 1 part Seagrams 7 Crown Whiskey

2. 1 part Cherry 7up

3. 1  part Canada Dry ginger ale 

4. 1-2 squeezes of clementine orange

5. Mix over ice

Note: This recipe is a work in progress. Other ingredients might be switched in or out, or added as needed. Also of note, this is quite good as it stands.  

1. Black Lightning (“Birthday Edition”)

1. 1 part Bacardi Black Razz raspberry rum 

2. 1 part Mountain Dew Voltage 

3. 1 part lemonade

4. 1 part peach iced tea

5. Shaken?

Note: Might need to be stirred. For now, count this as a loss. Usually our concoctions are tasty if unconventional. However, this one just did not work. It came out looking like radioactive sludge as well. Although the point is to get drunk you must also enjoy it. 

1. The Knocktail (Knockout Cocktail)

1. 2 parts Seagrams 7 Crown Whiskey

2. 1 part Cherry 7up

3. 1  part Canada Dry ginger ale 

4. Mix over ice

Note: Strong on the whiskey, this is essentially the same recipe as the Long Haul but without the orange squeeze. 

1. Knockout Punch

1. 1 part Bacardi black raspberry rum

2. 1 part Cherry 7up

3. 2 parts berry limeade Hawaiian Punch

4. Rose’s Grenadine Syrup (nixed because it makes the mixture too sweet)

5. Combine with or without ice to consumer’s preference.
