Publisher's Synopsis
Do you want to see over 120 new crazy cocktail recipes, many undrinkable? No? Well buy this mess-o'-miscellany anyway, there is no telling what you might see in it. And we mean that, because we're not going to tell you what's inside. You'll just have to cough up the loot and see. Not that we're pleading. We might not even care. But just in case, here are a few samples of Lobo's maniacal "cocktails."
CAUGHT IN THE BUGHOUSE: 1 1/2 oz Everdim, 1 oz Ginny-Gin Gin, 1/2 oz Chivas Beagle, 2 oz oyster juice, 2 oz Tabasco Sauce, 2 oz cream, 1 oz tomato juice. Garnish with kiwi slice. Lobo had just about enough sobriety to open his mouth when he wanted a third one of these cocktails, but certainly no more.
LONELY PADDED CELL: 1 oz Old Bum Rum, 2 oz Rot Gut Rum, 1/2 oz tuna oil, 1 1/2 oz tangerine peel oil, 2 oz moose juice, 6 oz shaved ice. Garnish with cocktail prick festooned with padding cotton.
DEMENTED FERMENTIA: 1/2 oz fermented palmetto bug squeezings, 1 oz 181 Rum, 1 oz quadruple sec, 3 oz pineapple juice, 1 tsp grapefruit juice. Garnish with fermented juniper berries.
HOMICIDAL TENDENCY: 2 oz dish water, 1/2 oz dirt. Sprinkle with dryer lint. Feed it to the neighborhood rats.
