Fark (of course) linked up "the worst shots ever created", a list which purports to contain the absolute worst shot drinks created by man. Looking at the list, I'd have a hard time disagreeing with them. The crap people will put down their throats in a bar at 2 am never ceases to amaze me.
For the love of God....NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Posted by: Mark on March 6, 2008 01:47 PMI've actually made a few of these while behind a bar.
They're terrifying to make, and even scarier to watch being drunk.
Though I think the NJ Turnpike one has another name... Can't remember it right now. Alligator? It tends to be a hazing ritual for new bartenders in big bars, especially if you've never worked in one before.
Luckily I've escaped that one...so far.
Posted by: Kat on March 6, 2008 02:36 PMI think the only one I've had there is the Cement Mixer. Won't have that again. It was actually bad enough that I stopped drinking for the entire night.
Me.
Stopped drinking.
Take that as a lesson.

Posted by: Pat J. on March 6, 2008 04:49 PMMy chef brother-in-law tricked a co-worker into drinking a different kind of Cement Mixer once, to get back at her for dumping out a soup he was making so someone else could cook something special for one of her customers. That one had a layer of brandy between the lime juice (on bottom) and the Bailey's (on top). The funny think about it is that, if drunk properly (making sure to swallow all the cream before the lime juice hits your mouth), it wasn't bad at all. The fun was in convincing your victim to drink the whole shot at once, and swish it around in their mouth (usually by pretending to swish yours around in your mouth, though you sucked the cream off the top and swallowed it quick before doing so).
Bailey's doesn't just curdle when it touches lime juice, it turns INSTANTLY into cottage cheese. The poor girl was so surprised by this that she snorted the cheese into her nose trying to spit it out. She ended up vomiting, too, from what he told me.
She never messed with anything he was cooking again.
Posted by: Tatterdemalian on March 6, 2008 07:31 PMI will have to remember that recipe for the cement mixer and use it. Frequently.
Probably with the line, "Hey, Scott - try this - it's great!".
Hilarity will undoubtedly ensue.
