I got home this evening, and said to myself, "Self, I think I'd like a drinky-poo." But there was very little in the cupboard. So I dug around and found some Bacardi light rum, and a bottle of Disaronno. I put a few cubes of ice in a glass, a goodly shot of rum ;) , and a little splash of the Disaronno. Hey, ya know what? It's good!
Anyone ever heard of this combination before? Does it have a name? Anybody want to come up with a name for this concoction?

Sounds like you could add a good hefty dose of black coffee to that. Maybe espresso.

Sounds like a Caffè Pucci without the caffè. :)

No gentleman should ever utter the phrase "drinky-poo", unless he's already half in the bag and/or flirting with a giggly blonde. :D

While the drink sound quite delicious, I must agree that no man should willingly utter the words "drinky-poo" unless he's got a damn good reason for it.

I'll admit I kind of snorted when I read that in the original post :)

lol That's just the phrase that various people I knew as a kid used many years ago. I'll try to remind myself not to use it in adult company in the future.

Enjoy your drinky-poo. Whatever words you need to use to lure yourself into having a drink is your business.

All the same, I think you have come up with another variation in the Godfather family.

A godfather is scotch and amaretto. A godmother is vodka and amaretto. Maybe this is the godson?

Well, either way, you didn't pull it out of a book, so you get to name it.

How about "The Bare Cupboard Drinky Poo"?

"The Bare Drinky Poo?"

"The Bear's Drinky Poo?" That might sound more manly.

Yes - gay manly.

I like the phrase crinky-poo, I like men who can be silly.

I think a true "drinky poo" would be one I invented -(but haven't had the nerve to try yet) - gray goose and prune juice - I call it a "Loose Goose"

yes, throw in some stout coffee to make it manly

Maybe a "Dios mio"? (Nah, don't like that.)

Call it a "Horse's Head"!

Ben

Dios Mio -- maybe Tequilla with Amaretto?

Horse's Head -- maybe add some cherries or something else red to go with it?

Maybe we should just start with the names and create a Fedora Lounge Cocktail menu.

We can start with

The DHermann -- Bacardi Light Rum and Disaronno.

May I suggest the ReFletcher, aka Newport Bitter, for your warm-weather libation: a vodka tonic with unsweetened lemon or lime juice, enough to cloud the drink completely. Garnish optional. I don't use any.

Substitute gin and you could call it a White Linen Tonic (rhymes with gin'n tonic, and the color is more or less white).

Ron Howard: Do I smell vodka and wheatgrass juice?

Homer: I call it a Lawnmower...

I am EXTREMELY amused at the staying power of this thread. I'm still no closer to coming up with a name. But I can confidently share one piece of intelligence that I have recently gathered. The above mentioned concoction is VERY DIFFERENT INDEED when made with dark rum. Just not the same. Not recommended. Not being a rum drinker (until I discoverded mojitos last year) I had no idea what to expect. I'm going back to light rum. That is all. ;)

MK, just this morning I woke up and said to a pug, "It takes a real man to be able to say drinky-poo."
I'm going to make a DHermann instead of a Martini in a minute.

First it was drinky-poo, and now its mojito.

Are you alright, sir?

I have resigned myself to the fact that I am never going to live this down . . . . I may have to emigrate to Argentina or further.
Sigh . . . . :rolleyes:

Argentina has a lot of wine - a chardonaaaay - kind of like a mojito only in argentina and made with grapes.

I'm going back to the bourbon and manhattan thread :)

Why fight or flee the inevitable? Bravely assert, "I AMBAC" and have another drinky-poo each time this thread reappears. :beer:

Drinky-poo is a phrase that shouldn't be uttered, *not even* by those that wear lace underwear, unless maybe talking to someone aged around 6 months lol

Long-time Lounger Warbaby and I hoist drinky-poos at each other over the miles all the time.

The Word Police can go hang. You can have our effeminate terminology when you pry it from our cold, dead, manicured fingers.

"Drinkie Poo" should only be uttered by those whose drinking companions are named Eeyore and Piglet.

Fu Manchu and I were relaxing on the couch last night. He had nothing and I had a DHermann. It was delicious. Now I can use up the Amaretto and Bacardi I bought last year and then couldn't remember why I bought them. Thanks, DH.

I got it:
Caribbean Godfather, Mon

I just went to idrink.com, where you can enter in the ingredients you have to pull up drink recipes using those ingredients. Here is what I found:

Jamaican Godfather
0.5 oz Amaretto
2.0 oz Rum
Shake and strain, serve in a tumbler

Slow Summer
1.0 oz. Amaretto
3.0 oz. Appleton Rum
serve on the rocks

the Double Team
1.0 oz Amaretto
1.0 oz Rum
Mix with crushed ice and garnish with mint

BegintheBeguine
08-05-2008, 05:56 PM
So now we know: DHermann is a Jamaican Godfather with ice. Cool! I'm planning to have one again to-night before I go to sleep (the drink, not the person.)

Anyone tried this one with Captain Morgan's Spiced Rum, Bacardi Black, or Bacardi 151 ?

Any of these with a twist of lime could be uniquely refreshing.

As a martini: Swirl a dash of Angostura Bitters in a chilled martini glass, shake 2 oz rum and 1.5 oz Amaretto until frost appears on the shaker, pour and garnish with a lime wheel.

I've had the Morgan's but Woods 100 has got to be a favourite. That and Pusser's.
