Episode 3 – The Grape One

Episode Three is up! We experimented with UV Grape and Grape Pucker. Why? Because we like grape and we wanted to see if it would be as good of a combo as the cherry.

We tried them together, and with some mixers. Check it out!

(Listen closely for the moment the booze kicks in.)

By the way, we still don’t have a name for the Grape version of Hi Ho Cherry. If you have any ideas, let us know on Twitter @drunkenalchemy!

Vamp drinks

We have a new drink to experiment with courtesy of some bartender vamps.

If this is confusing, then you’re either drunk already or you haven’t paid attention to the fact that we are gamers.

Drunken Alchemy spawned from gaming. Vampire the Masquerade in fact. I had a campaign going for a bit before Eldritch joined. She was hooked instantly. While others dropped (or were kicked out due to nonsense/drama), we have both soldiered on. The campaign has been running for over four years now.

Over time, this campaign has grown. Drastically. I have over 200 characters, all with fleshed out backgrounds. They are all mostly there for her characters to interact with, but they all have unique and fascinating stories of their own.

But I’m not here to discuss them. I’m talking about the drinks.

A lot of drinks were inspired by our vamps. Hi Ho Cherry? You can thank Cass for that. She likes board games. They’re pretty. Sundaes? Oh yeah. Vamp inspired body shots. Thank you guys.

The recent addition to the list of things to try comes from a bartender off. A what? Heh. There were two characters, both bartenders, that ended up challenging each other to see who would be voted best bartender. During this challenge, each character had to make a drink that was sweet. Other categories included fruity, strong, and a mixed/layered mystery drink.

Now, one made a Salted Caramel drink. The other made a Chocolate Fudge Silk. In the end, one of the “judges” decided to mix them.

And now we must figure out the Salted Caramel Chocolate Fudge drink. ๐Ÿ˜€

Our first experiment was half assed. We used caramel vodka and UV Cake. (Measurements are unknown… If it was a full shot of each, I’d be surprised.) Both vodkas were put into chocolate milk, with some salt thrown in.

It was good.

Damn good.

Not perfect though… It still needs work. However, for a late night experiment, it was not the worst we’ve ever had.

On that note, we do have someone who actually wants to try a Ghosty Berry. (Wtf? I know, right?) We’ll have to get some nice big strawberries soaking soon, so he can try one. We’ll let you know how that goes… ๐Ÿ˜›

Mmm… Cake.

Recently we had the pleasure of testing out one of the new UV vodka flavors. It’s cake. No, seriously, it’s cake!

UV Cake has a sort of vanilla cake flavor to it. You can almost taste the frosting… Very tasty stuff. So far we haven’t done much with it, but then again, we’re only on the first bottle.

Test results include:

Strawberry Shortcake – Add UV Cake to Strawberry Crush.

Chocolate Cake Milkshake – Add a shot of UV Cake to a chocolate milkshake. Fantastic!

Sometime in the near future, I’m hoping to try it with Sundaes. As in, our version of a sundae. Alcoholic cake and ice cream anyone? Yes please! :)

Future results will be posted. As long as we’re sober enough to remember to do it…
