11/22/08's show

2008-11-23T10:47:00.000-08:00

So, we were lame this week and really only did half a show due to both of us feeling crappy. :( Two crabby hosts doesn't make for a very good show, so we spared you one. BUT, note that we won't be on the air this Saturday because of Thanksgiving. HOWEVER, our semester finale will be 12/6, so DEFINITELY listen in for that! Anywho, here are the drinks we gave you this week and the songs you heard...

Gin and Sin

2oz Gin

1/4oz Fresh orange juice

1/4oz Fresh lemon juice

2 dashes grenadine

Stir the ingredients in a mixing glass with ice, and then strain into a chilled cocktail glass.

Butterfinger

2oz Butterscotch Schnapps

1/2oz Bailey's Irish Cream

6oz Milk

Chocolate Syrup

Shake schnapps, Bailey's, and milk vigorously with ice, then strain into a chilled cocktail glass. Float the chocolate syrup on top.

And for the REALLY adventurous...

Strawberry Splasharita

1 cup frozen Strawberries

1/2 cup good quality Tequila

1/4 cup Triple Sec

1 tbsp fresh semen (Yes, you read that right, SEMEN)

2 cups crushed ice

"Combine all ingredients except semen in a blender and blend until smooth. Pour into a sugar rimmed glass. Float the semen over the drink. It will coagulate as it cools and adds a splendid finishing touch to this popular drink" (Recipe courtesy of Natural Harvest- A Collection of Semen-Based Recipes)

Seriously. We talked about this on the show today and we still can't believe this book exists... Anthony and Julia do NOT actually recommend this drink, but we thought this recipe would give you a chuckle. Or might make you vom. Oh well.

And this week you heard...

"What Do I Get" The Buzzcocks

"Banquet" Bloc Party

"Men of Steel" Camp Camp

"Drivin' Me Wild" Common feat. Lily Allen

"Midlife Crisis" Faith No More
