Your Nation's Signature Drink

Postby Jankenjin » Fri Apr 16, 2010 10:34 pm

If you went into a bar and said, "Give me a <insert your nation's name here>", what would you be served?

A "Jankenjin" is a three-layered frozen margarita. The bottom layer is tequila and grenadine, the middle layer is tequila and limoncello, and the top layer is tequila and curacao. It's served in a tall, clear glass so that you can see the three layers--blue on top, yellow in the middle, and red on the bottom--and is never served with a straw. If you ask for one, they'll look at you like you're some kind of deviant.
Yes, we have a Factbook, for all those odd facts about this bunch of weird aliens.

Fatatatutti's signature drink would probably be Captain Criggin Rum, with the characteristic gasoline after-taste and greenish tint.

If you ask for a "Criggin", it will be served with no mix and no ice. (Ice is pretty difficult to obtain in Fatatatutti at any time.) Various daiquiris are also available, but never frozen, of course. Piña Coladas and fruity drinks with umbrellas are also popular.

A secondary brand of rum, Captain Zagor, is considered to be a knock-off by some. It lacks the robust gasoline flavour and is sometimes prefered by the less adventurous, especially tourists.

the elixer tastes like a double chocklet mint cinaman mocha.

a very mild simulant, equivelant to coffee.

"The best drink in existence is the Pan-Galactic Gargle Blaster. The effect of drinking one of these is rather like having your brains smashed out with a slice of lemon, wrapped around a large gold brick. The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy will tell you on which planets the best ones are brewed, how much you can expect to pay for one, and which voluntary organizations exist to help you recover afterwards.

"Fortunately, the Guide also tells you how you can make one yourself." (And, of course, it's gin-based.)

Pan-Galactic Gargle Blaster

1 bottle Ol' Janx Spirit.
1 measure Santraginean seawater.
3 cubes frozen Arcturan MegaGin.
4 liters Fallian marsh gas.
1 measure Qualactin Hypermint Extract.
1 Algolian Suntiger tooth.
Zamphour to taste.
Olive garnish.

Take the juice from one bottle of the Ol' Janx Spirit (see page 15 of the actual Guide).

Pour into it one measure of water from the seas of Santraginus V -- Oh, that Santraginean seawater, it says. Oh, those Santraginean fish!

Allow three cubes of Arcturan MegaGin to melt into the mixture (it must be properly iced or the benzene is lost).

Allow four liters of Fallian marsh gas to bubble thrugh it, in memory of all those happy hikers who have died of pleasure in the marshes of Fallia.

Over the back of a silver spoon float a measure of Qualactin Hypermint Extract, redolent of all the heady odors of the dark Qualactin Zones, subtle, sweet and mystic.

Drop in the tooth of an Algolan Suntiger. Watch it dissolve, spreading the fires of the Algolan suns deep into the heart of the drink.

Sprinkle Zamphour.

Add an olive.

Drink... but... very... carefully.

If my brains are bashed out, I'll just get a second head.

New Amerik's signature drink, or what passes for it, is known as the "Emperor's Poison", which is rather literal. The drink consists of mostly pomegranite juice with soda water poured into it, and a little lime juice. The drink is then laced with minute traces of arsenic. Finally, a single drop of plasma is quickly dropped into the drink, though if unavailable simple lemon juice will suffice for a weakened variant.

This drink is a favorite for the more wealthy governmental workers of New Amerik. However, though Amerikans can drink it mostly harmlessly due to exposure, it tends to have an unhealthy effect on foreigners, who soon find the peculiar urge to vomit it up soon after.

The Satirian "Wait Three Hours" drink is absinthe laced with LSD. It has a licorice flavor, bluish tint, and is served by the pint.

As such drinks raise as many complications(driving while hallucinating) as it does pink witches, it cannot be taken home or bought at a store. When served in licensed bars, the user is given an electric wristband which tases them into unconsciousness should they try to leave before the two hours are up.

You would most likely get a glass of Imperial Vinum, wine that is, the most likely drink you would receive when ordering an "Adrian Empire"; The Empire is famous for it's wine, specifically Red and Rose Wines, the most noted White Wine being the Argentius Silver Crown made from the ancient vineyards of the Imperial Family, of course, ordering that would put you on tab for several hundred thousand, so you would more likely receive a standard bottle of red wine, still probably made by the Argentius Wine Corporation.
That is of course assuming this tavern offers quality wine.

A Brainer.
It's a special type of coffee, grown in the southern parts of the nation. Fine marijuana, sugar and pepper (amount varies) are added, and the combination is boiled in water.
Once it is homogeneous and dark-brown, milk is added.
The drink is mixed for around 30 seconds, several blocks of ice are added (only in summer), and voilà! Enjoy your Brainer.

Rot Gut.

The base for Rot Gut is a very harsh bourbon-style whiskey, produced from mutated and radioactive crops, and held in barrels of special local wood. Few people can withstand the mouth-searing sensation and swallow it, although those who do get a truly rewarding feeling as the burning sensation disappears.

But it gets better. Due to the widespread chemical warfare in the local Civil War, the last generations of Vaultians have genetic modifications protecting them against some of the more common poisons, and allowing them to quickly detect others. Rot Gut is laced with carefully measured dosages of chemical weapons - just enough to activate the receptors and cause the glands to release stimulants and antidotes, but not enough to kill a Vaultian.

Not most times, at least.
There is a line most people say they will never cross. It is usually something they have done long ago when they thought no one was watching.

Lots of people around here like Turkish Coffee, a coffee beverage prepared by boiling finely powdered roast coffee beans in a pot, possibly with sugar, and serving it into a cup, where the dregs settle to the bottom. The name describes the method, not the raw material; there is no special Turkish variety of the coffee bean.

For those desiring alcohol, a strong single malt whisky is recommended. Most brands are currently imported because of the recent Islamic leadership's ban on alcohol and liquor, but the domestic market is recovering quickly.

ramset encountered in other nations have shown a trend of being fond of the 'Suicide Run'

A 1/4 shot of everclear,
1/4 shot of Ramset whiskey,
orange or lemon juice, depending on taste. (lemon is the original)
aromatic bitters.

The whiskey doesn't mix properly with the everclear or the juice, and thus creates a purple swirl through the shotglass. It has a similar effect to being brained by a fist-sized D6 made of the same resin they make bowling balls out of while someone yells 'Roll for initiative!' at you. It's often used as a 'wake up' drink for this reason.

Asking for a 'Ramsetia' on the other hand, will get you the purple papyrus whiskey, straight.

Within Ramsetia itself, it's more common for tourists to find taverns and pubs populated by ramset drinking a locally-produced stout due to their prevalence as a social place rather than somewhere to go to kill brain cells.
