Subject: BS: Snarple From: gnu Date: 02 Mar 05 - 07:02 PM Twelve ounce glass. Two to three fingers black rum from freezer (doesn't everyone keep their liquor in the freezer?!). Two Marichino (spelling?) cherries and one tablespoon Marichino (ditto) cherry juice. Slowly and gently pour orange juice to cover as deep as you like, even to near the top of the twelve ounce glass if need be. Do NOT stir. Drink first one slowly. After that, well, directions don't mean much. Cherries are the prize AND it's a healthy dring. No heartbern from the OJ cause the sherries take it way. And the run iz motley sugar, so it bleds wit the bodys naturl fluids. Strust me. Seriously, sgood. Anyone else god any ressspeees? |

Subject: RE: BS: Snarple From: Mingulay Date: 02 Mar 05 - 07:11 PM Maraschino. As if it matters. Is there a maximum limit, or is it self governing? |

Subject: RE: BS: Snarple From: Teresa Date: 02 Mar 05 - 07:23 PM 8-10 ounces ginger beer, ice, and one or a couple few shots of vodka. Pretty good. Teresa |

Subject: RE: BS: Snarler From: The Fooles Troupe Date: 02 Mar 05 - 07:41 PM Ginger Beer & Stones Green Ginger Wine - I used to prefer the 'Exhibition 1812' one - but can't get it any more.... |

Subject: RE: BS: Snarple From: gnu Date: 02 Mar 05 - 07:51 PM Low sodium V8 and Bud. Hey, don't knock it until that's all you've got in the house... and there's only two Bud left. Smart shoppers have to learn how to stretch the Budget. |

Subject: RE: BS: Snarple From: Chris Green Date: 02 Mar 05 - 07:55 PM I once did a drinking competition (in my teenage years) on Baileys mixed with scrumpy and sloe gin. I won. And the morning after I really wished I hadn't.... |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Snarple From: The Fooles Troupe Date: 02 Mar 05 - 08:28 PM Some one I knew once brewed some orange wine. But he didn't take out the skin and pith - nobody could drink the stuff without coughing. One alleged Martial Arts Black Belt who claimed that he could totally control his body, was challenged and he didn't cough - but he wouldn't talk for about 15 minutes.... potent stuff too - you wanted to talk to trees after drinking it. I must have been getting old - I just watched the entertainment, didn't partake after the first sip... |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Snarple From: Teresa Date: 02 Mar 05 - 08:45 PM How come i've never heard of orange wine? Can it be good stuff? Teresa |

Rum, daiquiri mix, runny Brie. Blend. Cheese daiquiri. Vodka, dash of Tabasco, pinch of pepper & salt, Hershey's Syrup. Garnish with celery stalk - Chocolate Bloody Mary.

Subject: RE: BS: Snarple From: Sooz Date: 03 Mar 05 - 02:44 AM A pint of Old Peculier for me too. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Snarple From: Rustic Rebel Date: 03 Mar 05 - 05:09 AM I knew some guys down in Florida that used to brew orange-grapefruit wine. Can't say for sure if it was good because we would drink it before it's brewing time was through! |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Snarple From: Morticia Date: 03 Mar 05 - 06:10 AM Seamus, you are an evil man.....Tuna Colada indeed....someone pass me a bucket |

Subject: RE: BS: Snarple From: GUEST Date: 03 Mar 05 - 09:25 AM One large jar. You know, like those jars of olives and such at the Costco (Price Club), near as big as a pail. A layer of sliced peaches and just a sprinkle of sugar with enough black rum to cover. Let sit one day. Repeat, no sugar, with any type of fruit, even firm melons, you wish. You may fill the jar all at once or place layers after each party using leftovers (preferred). Mixing different types of rum, except spiced rum or the stuff from Jamaica that tastes like lighter fluid, is acceptable. Let sit at least three months on window sill (best) or where you have room - not too hot, not too cold. When just the right occasion comes up, or when it just seems like it's time, dig in. Have guests sign liability waivers before second serving and collect their car keys. Keep away from open flame. Anyone got a recipe for "Friendship Cake" or "Freezer Cake"? A buddy of mine from Newfoundland calls his Freezer Cake "Freezer Burn". It will. |

Subject: RE: BS: Snarple From: GUEST,gnu Date: 03 Mar 05 - 09:26 AM I keep forgetting to sign when I come in the backdoor. That was me at 09:25 AM. |

Subject: RE: BS: Snarple From: robomatic Date: 03 Mar 05 - 10:42 AM It is getting seriously hard to find ginger beer in the States. You have to go to the natural foods section of the store and it's very dear. Canadians used to have it in quantity but have become too Americanized ... barely can find an aerobar any more...bitter lemon has vanished . . . once tried to make my own ginger beer in plastic bottles but used too much yeast and they xploded. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Snarple From: Seamus Kennedy Date: 03 Mar 05 - 11:21 AM Morty, don't knock it if you haven't tried it. It's a beverage that'll keep you on your toes for a day or two. Go on, I dare ya! Seamus |

Subject: RE: BS: Snarple From: Blissfully Ignorant Date: 03 Mar 05 - 01:09 PM Procure one three litre bottle of White Lightning (it's called cider...actually, it's water, sugar, and god knows what kind of chemicals. They make it in a factory, then someone waves an apple in front of it saying, 'Here, this is what you're supposed to taste like. It costs £2.99 and weighs in at 7.5% alchohol). Drink it from the bottle in one go, whilst spinning round vigourously. Puke. Consume a bottle of Buckfast in the same matter. Pick a fight, beak some windows, get arrested, and there you have it...you've just experienced a Friday night in Ayrshire! |

Subject: RE: BS: Snarple From: Noreen Date: 21 Mar 05 - 04:45 PM gnu-we have just sampled your Snarple for the first time after much anticipation and think it's great. Stewart thinks the drink is improved by increasing the rum to four fingers- and he's now on his second one... One from Stewart for the ladies: 1 shot each of Baileys, Amaretto, Bacardi and single cream, served in a pretty glass; known here as P.S. I Love You :0) |

Subject: RE: BS: Snarple From: CarolC Date: 21 Mar 05 - 05:17 PM Milk Prune Juice Kalua (coffee liquor) In whatever quantities and ratio to each other you find pleasing. It's very tasty and it keeps you wide awake and regular. Good source of protein, calcium, and iron, too... the perfect food, actually. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Snarple From: gnu Date: 21 Mar 05 - 05:28 PM Glad to hear it, Noreen. |

Subject: RE: BS: Snarple From: hesperis Date: 21 Mar 05 - 05:53 PM Loco Chagall (based on Perico Loco I think): a scoop or two of butterscotch ice cream (vanilla will do) pineapple juice to 2/3s of the glass a dash or two of real cranberry juice (the sour-tasting kind that is horrible if you have it by itself), make sure it runs over the ice cream Good with or without spiced rum. Swirl everything around once with a long spoon and dig in. Purple Harmony: vanilla ice cream dark grape juice President's Choice "sparkling wild blueberry" drink dash of kahlua (do not use much, or it overpowers the rest of the flavours) This one ends up really creamy and sweet if you do it right, with just a hint of darkness. Yum! |

Subject: RE: BS: Snarple From: Linda Kelly Date: 22 Mar 05 - 04:31 PM pint of Stella and cider- snakebites rule!!! |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Snarple From: Once Famous Date: 22 Mar 05 - 04:39 PM Coca-Cola ice cold directly from one of those orignal sized small bottles. Nectar of the gods. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Snarple From: PoppaGator Date: 22 Mar 05 - 04:52 PM Seamus: I used to think you had to drink one of those vile concoctions to puke ~ but yours are so nasty all I had to do was read about them! Martin: No alcohol? Get with the spirit(s), dude! Also: if you're still drinking Coca-Cola from those little green 6-oz bottles, you must be dreaming . . . or hoarding. And if you're hoarding, they'll all be gone soon if you actually drink 'em. |

Subject: RE: BS: Snarple From: gnu Date: 22 Mar 05 - 04:55 PM hesperis... I see you also have access to the President's Choice line of sody pop. Well, now. Let me tell you that the Sparkling Pink Grapefuit sody pop is most definitely a "mix" that lends itself to the pallette, not just of the bold. I make, please forgive me Lewis (the inventor of the Snarple) Snarples with it and, damn, if they aren't better than the original. As well, I find that just about any drink can use the grapefruit sody and be less sweet... well, duh! But, if sweet is holding you back, try it, especially on a hot day when "sweet" is the last thing you want to pour on top of BBQ. One watermelon. Cut large hole on angle to allow replacement of rind. Scoop out guts. De-seed. Chop guts fine. Drain guts. Use drainings for mix for other drinks as you may. One quart vodka, one quart white rum, one quart PC grapefruit sody, one quart crushed ice. Mix with guts and pour back in watermelon. Replace rind, with a little cut for the ladle. Place jar labelled "keys" next to watermelon. Enjoy. |

Subject: RE: BS: Snarple From: GUEST,Skipy Date: 22 Mar 05 - 05:13 PM anagram of snarple is "PLANERS", are these people who plane things for a living? Skipy. (on cider that is still in date!). |

Subject: RE: BS: Snarple From: Dave the Gnome Date: 22 Mar 05 - 05:25 PM White Lightning and Carlsberg Special Brew. Now there is a snake that realy does bite:-) DtG |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Snarple From: Once Famous Date: 22 Mar 05 - 05:35 PM Nope, no booze. except maybe for a little Mogen David perhaps. Absolutely not interested in booze. Coca-Cola still comes in those little green bottles. they are available in 6 packs as always and I buy them at the supermarket. However they are quite expensive at about $4 a 6 pack. However, that bottle was perfectly designed to fit in the hand, the drink is at it's sweetest and most carbonated best. An American icon. |

Subject: RE: BS: Snarple From: GUEST,Skipy Date: 22 Mar 05 - 05:42 PM Coke bottle effect? A term given to the shape of the fuselage of the Phantom F4, allowing the fuselage to decrease in width as the length of the mainplane increased (wing) causing minimum change of cross sectional area to reduce drag. Trust me! I worked on them for 4 years! Take a look @ one from above & you will see what I mean. Skip ( known as "Spider" in those days ) |

Subject: RE: BS: Snarple From: gnu Date: 22 Mar 05 - 06:26 PM And what a marvel it was... still is, mind you. The Mig's nor European fighters/bombers of the day could not compete. Nasty piece of business as they say. Turn you upside down and bite your ass. I recall my buddies in the RCAF were in Starfighters and Lawndarts at the time when the Phan-tHom was kicking ass hells bells in that "action". Nasty. |

Subject: RE: BS: Snarple From: Bunnahabhain Date: 22 Mar 05 - 06:30 PM Gin, Sloes, Sugar. Combine, leave for few weeks, lose for six months in back of cupboard. You now have traditional sloe gin, ready to drink, or inflict on unsuspecting innocents... Bunnhabhain |

Subject: RE: BS: Snarple From: George Papavgeris Date: 23 Mar 05 - 12:42 PM It's good fucking sober, even better fucking drunk. You don't remember anything, so you can always tell yourself it was great. On a serious note: 1 spring garlic (kile spring onion, but garlic) 1 small dish of salt 1 napkin 1 "shot" glass 1 bottle of tsipouro (triple-refined ouzo, no aniseed flavour) Pour tsipouro into glass dip garlic in salt take bite off garlic down tsipouro use napkin to dry your tears repeat at least 6 times try to stand up use napkin to dab blood from where you hit yourself falling |

Subject: RE: BS: Snarple From: George Papavgeris Date: 23 Mar 05 - 12:44 PM The above drink may not put hairs on your chest, but is sure does on your tongue the next morning. Whatever you do, DON'T quench your thirst with water in the morning. Sip a small glass of beer instead. The world will eventually right itself. |

Subject: RE: BS: Snarple From: Noreen Date: 23 Mar 05 - 12:51 PM LOL no chance of ANY sort of relations after that, Mr Greko! |
