The Viscous Robert


What uuuuup, thirsty birds???  It has been ssssooooooo long since our last Thirsty Thursday post, but I am resurrecting the tradition in preparation for our impending return to Fooooooooorrrrrkkkkkssssssss!  Demanda and I have made a pact to post at all more before the trip, and here is my inaugural effort! I like to call it: The Viscous Robert.
I know, I know. You, like me, are wondering who would drink a whole ounce of bitters.  Let's see what happens.

OK, so we start with a viscous Robert...
 Wait, what? 

The 'lets and our ingredients... ish

Oh, I see, it's a drink.  OK, we start with some ice...
 
"I thought we were done with this shit."
"Apparently not."
"Dude, I would so facepalm if my arms bent that way." 

One ounce of bitters... that's right: a whole ounce.

"OK, so she's going to drink this?  Foul."
"I know, right?  I think that night with TwiKiwi50 and StarlitViolets messed with her head."

A "dash" of SoCo...
 
"That's enough!"


"You can't drink this."


 "You can't let her drink this."
"Me??! You were with her first!"
"Oh, as if I could make her do or not do anything."

 
 "Well, fine. But I'm not cleaning up any vomit!"

And swirl!  (I don't have any lemon peel with which to garnish.)
 
You all know I love a good action shot.

 Hmm... this is... well... it's going down the drain is what. 

 
Awww.  This is what FAIL looks like.
Now, you guys know I will drink lots of things. This was absolutely undrinkable.  It reminded me vaguely of Christmas, for reasons I am unable to explain - I suppose from all those times I got tanked on Christmas morning as a child...  I'm not sure, but it wasn't a good thing.  If you've ever tasted bitters alone, you pretty much know what it tastes like. Bitters are better as an accent, not the main event.
 
 The 'lets say they told me so.

All in all, I think you're better off with the original viscous Robert, so let's see him again, eh?





Happy Thursday!!!

You had me on the So Co, but lost me on the bitters. EEEeeewww! You're going to have to explain to me the 'lets cause "Hello, I'm Rikki and I'm LTP for everything"

*waves at everyone* Thanks for coming by, ladies! Yes, the drink was gross. Next week I hope to have a tastier option. LOL - for all of our sakes.

Rikki - don't worry, I'll explain everything. Apparently I've been gone from my blog so long, no one who didn't follow a year ago knows about anything here! LOL - my bad.

"It reminded me vaguely of Christmas" I don't even want to know what your Christmas' were like. On the other hand, I kinda do.
