December 17, 2011 (Day 263) — Dominick

If you haven’t already, we urge you to take the Moscow Mule out for a test drive. It’s one of the most refreshing cocktails you can ever have. So we’re going to make a leap and adjust this cocktail for the Holiday season.

Now, you also have to understand that one of the negatives (or positives depending on how much of a sadist you are) of Christmas is the novelty song. The novelty song isn’t really mean to spread a kind of Christmas joy or tell a meaningful story about the power of the Holiday seasons. They’re meant to cash in on soppy bastards like myself in the Holiday spirit.

One such song is Dominick the Christmas Donkey.

You get a whole ‘nother level of creep with the horse mask in the video above. Merry Christmas.

Dominick is a donkey. This is an adjusted Moscow Mule. A mule is related to the donkey.

Ergo…

Dominick

• 2 oz 360 Vodka
• 1 oz pineapple syrup
• 1 dash lemon juice
• Ginger beer to top

Combine the ingredients in a copper mug filled with crushed ice and serve. Unfortunately, we don’t have any in the Cocktails, 365 Test Bar so we’re having to go with an Irish coffee mug.

Sparkly!
