Tootsie Shots

It seems that we are always making alcoholic versions of food items, whether it is intentional or accidental. Either way, it’s fun.

Last weekend we tried out a combination of UV Chocolate Cake and Orange Crush. The result was something that tastes like a Tootsie Pop.

This is great since we needed something to go with that UV Chocolate Cake. To us it really tastes more like a Tootsie Pop than cake anyway. So, add some fruity flavor sodas and there ya go.

I’d say it’s better in shot form. Could be too sweet as a full drink, but hey, it’s up to you.

Bleh

Ideas have been floating around. However, actually trying out new drinks had to be put on hold.

Boo for being sick.

Yup. That one should really go in the rules list. Or at least a drinking guidelines list. Seriously, don’t drink alcohol when you are sick. I did that once before way back in college, and the results weren’t pretty. I was just getting over a cold. Felt tons better. Stuffy nose was over with, no aches… All good right? Nope. Tolerance? Yeah, that died with the cold.

Only had a few drinks that night and while I did manage to get myself pretty trashed, I felt like crap the entire next day. I rarely get hangovers, and that was… Ick.

So, one of the few things college taught me. Never drink when sick, or just getting over something. You can’t have as much as you would like, because one or two will knock you on your ass or make you roll down a hill because you are too lazy to walk the entire way home…

That totally hinders the experiment process. So… Once the lingering leftover bits of cold finally go away… Oh yeah. I’m celebrating. :)
