"Sprite Train"
pretty predictable if you know what night train is, if you don't,half of this entire blog may as well be written in french.If You've had night train you know it tastes like hootch made with sugar beets, with a hint of wine.but with a splash of sprite, it ends up tasting a lot like Sangria Señorial. (that weird Mexican grape soda)I've tried other sodas and sprite takes the cake.Be careful about mixing fortified wine and soda pop though.It becomes so incredibly drinkable, then it's gone in a flash, and you'll end up naked on roof before you even begin to understand what the fuck happened.8 outta ten, Sprite Train is a classy little drink in the world of corner store cocktails.

"The Blast Off!"
Don't you miss the days of Joose and Four Loko before they took out the taurine,guarrana,and caffeine? Me too, but after the death of four loko original recipe, came a beverage that blew me away...Colt 45 Blast!!!! It's 12% abv,endorced by Snoop Dogg! And tastes better that original sparks. But...no caffeine...no good stuff!!..... oh wait! red bull has all of that shit!!! thus the "Blast Off!" was born Jan,10,2011. One 12 oz can of red bull, one 24 oz can of Blast(Grape) poof! you got grape soda that somehow get's you more drunk than an entire 12 pack of pabst...10 all the way..
"Jooses Wild"
This one was invented an era i refer to as "the summer of Joose" in 2004 Joose was the original.They only had one flavor and it tasted somewhere between sparks and stale 211.that summer I remember returning over 5 dollars worth of Joose cans in one month(do the math)... Anyhow I thought "Jooses Wild" was a horrible idea at first but everyone was going crazy over it, so i tried it(I aint a pussy right?)Are you ready for this....Joose original flavor, and Wild Irish Rose!(I'd say 1/3 Wild Irish Rose) This one's for the grinders folks. don't fuck with this shit unless you think you can handle yourself in a black out situation. 5 outta 10
the "sidewalk slammer"
This concoction in its original form was used with Sparks, As time grew, more alcoholic energy drinks were popping up left and right And this seemingly "innocent" cocktail morphed into a one way ticket to pukesville. A true Sidewalk Slammer is mixed in a forty since it was designed to mix and drink in public(hence the name). There are many different varieties of the Sidewalk Slammer which i will go through one by one and rate(out of 10) based on taste and alcohol content starting with the best in my expert opinion....#1."The Master Blaster" Colt 45 Blast(strawberry lemonade is the best flavor), and Steel Reserve black label abv:9,taste:7--#2."The Slam Dunk" Poko Loko mango flavor and Colt 45 abv:7 taste:10(omg sooo goood!)---#3"Olde Reliable" sparks original, and Olde English 800 abv:5,taste:10(tastes like Smartees)---#4 "The Jooser" Jungle Joose, and Colt 45 abv7 taste:9---#4"The Green God" Four Loko green apple, and Mickeys abv:8 Taste:8---#5"Poor Mans Slam" Tilt(watermelons the best Flavor), And Hurricane high gravity abv9 taste:5(4 if you don't use watermelon).....the list goes on but those are most definitely the top 5. Go ahead try your own mixes see, whatcha come up with...
the brass monkey (and beyond)
Startin off with the classics. for those of you out there who don't what a brass monkey is, you start off with a classic malt liquor(Olde English 800,Mickey's,colt45) some people mix it with real orange juice but personally i think sunny d works better(and keeps it nice n' sleazy) .A traditional brass monkey is made by drinking a forty down to the label and filling in the rest with orange juice, personally i mix in a cup or make a pitcher it helps to drink it faster and it just makes more sense. I do about 1/4 oj 3/4 Olde English.I'm gonna go ahead and give this one a 10 outta 10. It's a hood classic and it's real tasty. I've also have done this concept with Hawaiian Punch which is called a "Knockout"(8 outta 10), and blue raspberry Tampico,which is called a "Blue Ape"(6 outta 10). these concoctions are overall mild and refreshing and are designed to mask taste and dilute carbonation so you can consume malt liquor at a much faster rate.As a personal tip I'd suggest smoking menthol cigarettes and listening to hip hop during consumption.
