Bad Cocktails and the Bartenders Who Mix Them

bartender.jpg

If you're cocktail snobconnoisseur like me, who thinks 99% of the bars out there are staffed by incompetent nitwits who believe that mixing Rose's Lime Juice, grenadine, and a half-cup of rum in a tall glass, topped off with Diet Sprite is an acceptable Mai Tai recipe, then you need look no further for confirmation than this hilariously painful video from DrinksTV, in which our delightful bimbotender, Andrea, shows us plebes how to make a "Woodford Reserve Mint Julep, which she helpfully explains, "...is like a Mojito, but with bourbon." Andrea is all about serious bartending, you can tell because she a) uses very precise measurements ("..a little bit, like a teaspoon or so"), and b) has her blouse unbuttoned to her navel.

If, for some inexplicable reason, you feel compelled to make this, you might want to have a hypo full of insulin at the ready to counteract the instantaneous Type II Diabetes you're likely to contract from the sugary overload of Rose's Lime Juice, powdered sugar, and canned sour mix contained in this abominable corruption of all that is decent and holy in Cocktaildom.

Update: If you thought that looked bad, wait until these 3 hootchies whip you up a Where the F*ck Did I Park My Car. Guaranteed to get you laid? Passed out and date-raped is more like it.

Holy crap! It's the Sandra Lee of bartending!

Now I have this horrible vision of Andrea with her own bartending show on the Food Network.

she shoulda stuck with being a brassiere model.

She probably still does that on the side, along with some jello wrestling.

In the second link, Meeeeeeeeghan confirms my theory that 90 percent of the residents of south Florida are Yankees.

Also, I'm not sure if Andrea is tan enough for Miami standards.

I should have my own damn bartending show, in my kitchen in Korea.

"I should have my own damn bartending show, in my kitchen in Korea."

Oh please, please, please do that.

Only if you can come up with an appropriately Korenglish name for it like, "Brittanie's Soju Pussycat Explosion."

I throwed up in my mouth, made up a sexy name for it and proclaimed it magical tiki libation... now where am my BOOBIES!?!

What am sexy name for magic tiki drink?
