Official Drinks of The Aquamen

The Gin & Tonic

The most commonly consumed drink of ours is the Gin & Tonic. This wonderful concoction is cool and refreshing, especially suited to cooling off an Aquaman melting under the heat of the stage lights, and never leaves one with a nasty hangover no matter how many were consumed.

The Recipe:

• 2 oz Gin
• 2 oz Tonic Water (not diet!)
• slice of lime

In a highball glass filled with ice, pour Gin, pour Tonic Water, squeeze lime, and drop lime in. Stir.

The Flaming Guapo

A vivid blue fiery drink invented backstage at our last show at the Great American Music Hall. This one is a crowd pleaser.

The Recipe:

• 2 oz pineapple juice
• 1 oz Blue Curaçao
• 1/2 oz Bacardi 151

Mix pineapple juice and blue curaçao and pour into cocktail glass. Pour Bacardi 151 over a spoon onto top of drink and light immediately. Drink while still flaming if you're tough enough, or wait for the glass to cool off to avoid lip burns.

The Martini

There are occasions when the Aquaman has not had ample time to get properly sauced before taking the stage. In this case, nothing but two Martinis in quick succession will do the trick. A true Aquaman only drinks Gin martinis, and he makes sure the Vermouth does not come out of a spritzer.

The Recipe:

• 1 oz Gin
• 1/2 oz Dry Vermouth

Stir Gin and Vermouth together (don't shake!) with cracked ice. Strain into a well chilled cocktail glass. Garnish with stuffed olive or onion.

The Manhattan

A favorite of Cabin Boy Vixx's for it's soothing effect on an unsettled stomach. This is due to the inclusion of the aromatic herb extract digestif,Angostura bitters, and the soothing warmth of that other staple of the Aquabar -- Bourbon.

The Recipe:

• 1 oz Bourbon
• 1/2 oz Sweet Vermouth
• 1 dash Angostura Bitters

Stir with cracked ice. Strain into a well chilled cocktail glass. Garnish with maraschino cherry.
