This time we’ll take a look at two characters in the different ends of Superhero Power Scale.
GALACTUS
Galactus is powerful; so is the aroma of his drink. His armour is coloured blue and magenta-ish; the colour of the drink is trying so simulate that magenta/red.
-2 parts Triple Sec
-1 part absinth
-2 parts lime juice
-2 parts raspberry juice.
Shake with ice and strain into chilled old fashioned glass filled with ice.
Once again… as in Rogue or Cheetah: for raspberry juice I used concentrate diluted with water 1:1 ratio instead of recommended 1:4.
GREEN ARROW
Yes, I know: in Clayface/Rogue post I told I’m not gonna use my Hawaii shirts as background anymore… but this highball screams “SUMMER!”, I couldn’t help myself… even though summer is pretty much gone 😦 Well, I guess you can drink this while waiting for the next.
The drink itself… Green Arrow is kinda comical character (a bow makes a superhero?!?), and I thought his drink should be comical/entertaining/funny: something that will bring smile to drinker’s lips, starting from the first sip.
-2 parts Triple Sec
-1 part Creme de Menthe
-2 parts simple syrup
-2 parts cream
-8 parts Fanta
Stir ingredients with ice and strain into highball glass with lots of ice in it. Add a straw (to avoid milk whiskers) and lime wedge (the scent of lime works well with this one). Tropical paraphernalia is optional… maybe Oliver Queen uses that parrot for target practice? ;P
Cosmic entity and a bow-wielding dude; strong short drink and mild highball; serious destroyer and bantering jester… and speaking about jesters… next time: Spider-Man!
