Recipe ingredients and directions:

orange juice

optional: ginger ale, alcohol of some kind

blue food coloring

optional: floating arm-of-death (recipe follows)

Put some blue food coloring into the orange juice punch until it

turns a disgusting swamp-green color. The color is gross and the

orange juice pulp floating around really adds to the effect.

People will realize that the punch tastes good, but it will take

them awhile to figure out it is orange juice.

Floating Arm-of-Death

———————

Water or orange juice

optional: gummy worms

Freeze the water (and gummy worms if desired) in a clean rubber glove.

Peel off the rubber glove and float the arm in the punch.

An easy drink to make is called spring water. You mix any where

from 1/2 shot to as much Vodka as you want with the soda drink,

Sun Drop. You can also use Mountain Dew, but Sun Drop is the best.

It mixes with the vodka so well, that you can barely taste any

alcohol, and it looks like a soda — just pour it over the rocks!

Recipe ingredients and directions:

This recipe comes from a nearly defunct religious sect here in the United

States known as the Shakers. This celibate religious group ate communally,

but with men one side of the room and women on the other. Shakers are famed

for their quality furniture, their stewardship, and their excellent cooking.

This drink was common at their tables.

2 quarts grape juice (unsweetened)

1/2 cup sugar

12 whole cloves

4 sticks cinnamon

2 tablespoons whole allspice

Combine all of the ingredients and heat over a very, very low flame. DO NOT

BOIL. Let the juice sit on the flame, stirring occassionally, until it is

hot. The longer the drink is on the flame the more the spices have a chance

to combine with the juice (I let mine sit for about 3 hours). Strain the

spices out of the juice. You may serve it hot, or serve it cold. A slice

of lemon goes great with it. Served cold it is a great summer drink!

Christmas time when sorrel is in season in Jamaica. The dried sorrel will

last for months if stored in a dry place.

IS IT COKE?

An 84-year-old retired beverage distributor claimed recently that

he had the original Coca-Cola formula for almost 40 years.

Lee Williams wrote in to Dallas Morning News columnist Marylin

Schwartz, after she had written about the new Coke in her column.

Williams said he had been given the formula in 1948, when he had a

sales route for the Dr. Pepper Company.

A pharmacist named John Reed told him that he used to make his

own syrup for the cola because he had been given the original

recipe. Reed said he had gotten it from an ingredient

salesman who wanted to sell him the ingredients for the syrup.

He then pulled the formula from a file marked "1898" and let

Williams make a copy of it.

If it’s true, this is your big chance to make up a batch of "The

Real Thing" yourself. Here’s the recipe:

30 pounds of sugar

2 gallons of water

2 pints of lime juice

4 ounces of citrate of caffeine

2 ounces of citric acid

1 ounce of extract of vanilla

6 drams (3/4 ounce) of fluid extract of cola

Don’t forget to mix it with carbonated water before you drink it,

like the fountain drink. If you try it, let us know how it comes

out. Warning: Drink at your own risk.

(If they haven’t proved that any of these ingredients causes

cancer yet, I’m sure it’s just a matter of time.)

According to the Coca-Cola Company, the formula has never been

given out. But who knows? this could be the biggest leak

ever…

1 and 1/2 tsp. vanilla flavoring

1 cup milk

Recipe ingredients and directions:

fresh peaches, cut into wedges

honey

lemon juice

ice cubes

Fill a blender 1/3 full with peaches, douse them with a half-cup

of honey or corn syrup, splash in about a tsp of lemon juice, and

fill the blender with ice cubes. Aerate all to heck. Serve with

straws. A full blender serves 2-4 people, depending on how hot the

day is.

Category: Beverages & Drinks Recipes

Recipe ingredients and directions:

1 pint of strawberries

1/2 pint of blueberries

2 cups of water

1 cup of granulated sugar

1/4 cup of orange juice

Puree fruit in blender of food processor. Heat water and sugar

until boiling and sugar has melted. Remove from heat and add orange

juice. Let cool slightly and then mix in fruit. Pour in shallow

glass cooking pan (or ice trays) and let it set for at least four

hours or overnight. Slice into pieces and place in food processor.

Process until smooth and creamy. Transfer to freezer storage

container and let set 30 minutes before serving. Makes eight

servings.

I have also used other fruits and juices with good results. Peaches

worked nicely and cantaloupe was interesting, although since it is

more watery it hardened a bit more than with other fruit mixes.

Recipe ingredients and directions:

1 peeled small to medium banana

1/3 cup buttermilk

1/4 cup yoghurt

splash vanilla

few shakes cinnamon

1/2 tsp instant coffee

3 ice cubes

2 pitted dates, or honey to taste

Combine in blender. If using honey, drizzle in with blender running

so it doesn’t settle on the bottom. To make a thicker shake, freeze

the banana in chunks, and use that instead of the ice cubes. A

riper banana will give a more liquid shake with a more pronounced

banana flavor. If you use banana that is yellow with green ends

you will get a thicker shake where the coffee flavor predominates.

Recipe ingredients and directions:

1 cup apple cider

1/3 cup honey

1/2 cup light rum

1/2 cup Appel, Applejack, or any other apple liqueur

1/3 cup fresh orange juice and pulp (about 1 orange)

1/3 cup fresh lemon juice and pulp (about 2 lemons)

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1 teaspoon ground cloves

Mix together apple cider and honey. Heat on lowest possible setting

just until the honey dissolves, stirring constantly.

Add to cooled mix the rum, apple liqueur, orange juice and pulp,

lemon juice and pulp, ground cinnamon and ground cloves.

Let set 3 weeks at room temperature, shaking every day, then filter

into smaller bottles using muslin cloth. Makes about 3 cups of

SilverHorn.

Let set (at room temperature) as long as you can stand it – one

*year* produces a *very* smooth drink, but try to wait at least

three months.

Apple liqueur may be hard to find in some states. It *is* a

neccessary ingredient!

This recipe was pieced together (after a lot of experimentation!)

from hints dropped by someone who had the GoldenHorn recipe and

one of his ex-girlfriends. I have no idea how close to the actual

recipe it is, but it produces a very nice drink.

To those of you who may have SCA connections, please distribute

the above recipe freely and widely – the monopoly on the GoldenHorn

recipe was really annoying. Please just make sure my name is on

the recipe.

This recipe can be infinitely modified, but this is the most popular

one I have tried so far. In particular, try changing the amount

of honey and/or spices. If you find a better combination, please

let me know!
