Pineapple Margarita🍍🍸

Sometimes you just need a margarita to get you through your week and this week we’re bringing it! We decide to do a twist on the classic and bring you the sweet pineapple margarita! Hopefully this will give you a little bit of the summer feeling you’re probably missing at this point as it gets colder and colder here for us in the Northeast. You’ll need

3 oz pineapple juice
1 ½ oz of silver tequila
¾ oz of triple sec
1 oz of lime juice
1 teaspoon of simple syrup
Optional, sugar or salt rim

If you are doing a rim on your cocktail wet the rim of your glass with water, or simple syrup, and pour the salt or sugar onto a small plate. Lightly tap the edge of your glass in your salt or sugar. Grab yourself a shaker with ice in it and toss all of your ingredients into your shaker. Shake well and strain into your glass. Enjoy!

This week we visit Wisconsin! Mostly known for their cheese, which Shelby loves, but also home to a wolf-like cryptid known as the Beast of Bray Road! The strange bipedal wolf creature stalks around the back farm road looking for roadkill to eat. However, don't be fooled. It will chase down your car and maybe leave a few scratches in the paint. We discuss the similarities that it shares with many of the other wolf cryptids in the United States, including one we have covered previously! So grab a chair! Grab a glass! And your emotional support buddy! It's gonna be a howling good time!

The Cinnamon Toast Crunch🥛🥣🧀

You may recognize this name as a shot rather than a cocktail but we put our own twist! The hint that was given for this episode was Wisconsin! So with a little bit of research I (Shelby) found out that Rumchata is manufactured and based out of Wisconsin! So there’s our connection! This is a lovely fall cocktail that you might even be able to sneak into a pumpkin patch! You’ll need

3 oz of Rumchata
1 oz of vanilla vodka
½ of fireball
4 oz of cold coffee
Optional cinnamon sugar for ri***ng

This is an easy one so just add all of your ingredients into a ice filled shaker. Shake it all up and pour into a rocks or pint glass (Or maybe your starbucks or dunkin’ donuts cup to hid it) with ice. If you are ri***ng the edge of your glass mix some sugar and cinnamon together on a plate or dish. Wet the rim of your glass and gently dip into the mixture until you’re satisfied with the amount. Cheers and enjoy!

The Gravedigger 🪦⚰️🐶and our special guest Nihilus 🖤

2 oz of hard cider
1 oz of whiskey
Ginger ale

Grab yourself a 12-16 ounce glass or a highball glass and fill your cup with ice. Add in your hard cider and your whiskey and then top off with your ginger ale! Cheers and enjoy! And if your anything like us you'll pair your cocktail with the remainder of what was in your hard cider bottle! Cheers!

Optional is red sugar for ri***ng your glass

If you’re using the red sugar lightly wet the rim of your glass with raspberry liqueur and gently tap it into a shallow dish of the sugar.

This week we take a trip to the island! Rhode Island, that is for the case that inspired the conjuring! We pair it with the spooky-colored black martini and learn that even after 27 episodes Kaitlin is still a terrible bartender. We love you anyway, Kait.

Peach Beermosa 🍑🍻

This week we try an interesting cocktail. It’s a combination of a breakfast classic, the famous Georgia fruit, and a frat parties best friend. I’m sure somewhere a Georgia Bulldogs fan is going to think this is a great idea for a gameday brunch.

6 oz of your favorite beer, we used a fruit smoothie beer from a local brewery, we recommend that you use something a little on the lighter side.
2 oz of peach schnapps
Peach Juice

This is a cocktail you aren’t going to need any tools for. Grab yourself a pint glass and pour in your 6 oz of beer, if you have any foam allow it to dissipate, then add in your peach schnapps and top off with peach juice! Cheers!

Strawberry Jam Moonshine 🍓🌙🌟
This week we dip our toes in our first ever cocktail featuring white lightning, fire water, h***h, mountain dew good ol moonshine. This is a beautiful mix of sweet and sour to give us a bold summery cocktail worth throwing in a mason jar and sitting yourself on a wrap around porch somewhere.

1 heaping tablespoons of strawberry jam
1 tablespoon of meyer lemon juice
1.5 oz of moonshine, there are quite a few brands that are sold in stores which is what we used
1 large strawberries, sliced for garnish
Club soda to top everything off

In a cocktail shaker filled with ice add in your jam, lemon juice, and moonshine. Stir with a long spoon until your jam dissolves and some of your ice melts. Give it a little shake and strain into your glass or mason jar with ice. Garnish if you please and then top off with your club soda! Cheers!

For episode 21 we are a bloody mess! 🩸🩸🩸

This week's cocktail was created by Shelby one day by using the "what's in the fridge?" method. Its deep red color and chaotic energy earned it the name "A Bloody Mess." Sounds crazy, but just roll with it.

6 oz of ocean spray cran-blackberry
2 oz whipped cream vodka
1 oz of your preferred red blend wine (we used Apothic Red)

You can put it in a shaker if that's your style. Shelby just poured it all in a glass and stirred it up. If you're feeling fancy, add some blackberries for garnish. We're healthy bi***es today! Cheers!

The Boozey Buckeye cocktail joins us for episode 20!

This week's cocktail is a winning combination of chocolate and peanut butter! What’s not to love? Although we did follow the recipe this could also be delicious as a frozen beverage! Shelby and Taylor added a little something extra to their beverage.

2 packets of hot chocolate mix
12 oz of hot water
2 oz of bailey’s or bourbon
1 tsp of peanut butter melted, plus a little more to drizzle on the top
Whipped cream
Optional: a peanut butter cup for garnish or a peanut butter whiskey shot for an extra kick!

Start by pouring your hot chocolate packets into a cup and stir in your hot water and Bailey or bourbon. Stir in your melted peanut butter and then top your cup with whipped cream and drizzle your additional peanut butter. Shelby and Taylor added their peanut butter whiskey in at the end before the whipped cream. Cheers!

For episode 19 we dip our toes in a little Florida Swamp Water...Cocktail that is!

We couldn’t find a cocktail that we wanted to pair with this week's topic so we made our own! This is Florida Swamp water and we are happy to bring it to you! We used the base of an Arnold Palmer and built from there. So enjoy our first ever OMFT original cocktail creation!!!

3 oz of sweet tea
2 oz of lemonade
2 oz of lemon vodka
1 oz of raspberry liqueur
Lemon for garnish

Get yourself an ice-filled shaker and add all of your ingredients. Shake that baby like your momma gave it to you and pour it into a collins or a pint glass with ice! Garnish with a little lemon or choice of garnish and enjoy! Cheers!

Hopping on into our glasses this week is the Frogster Cocktail! 🐸🏞️🚗

This is our first tequila based cocktail so I HOP it will be RIBBIT-ing. Get it? Anyway get yourself a highball glass for this cocktail and fill it with ice. You’re going to need

1.5 ounces of blue curacao
1 ounce of tequila, we used silver
Orange juice

You add your blue curacao and tequila into your ice filled highball glass. Top off with your orange juice to create your lovely froggy green color and cheers!

This week we have the elegant White Lady Cocktail! 🍸🤍

This classic english cocktail joins us this week that was originally believed to have been created by a famous bartender named Harry McElhone while he was working at the London’s Ciro Club in 1919. Originally he used crème de menthe instead of gin until he opened up his own bar in New York in 1923.

2 oz of gin
1 oz of triple sec
½ an oz of lemon juice
Optional is ½ of fresh egg white, we did not do this, however if you want a silky texture feel free to add it.

If you are using egg white combine everything in your shaker, without ice, and shake. Then add in your ice and shake again. If you are not using egg add everything in with ice and shake before straining into a coupe glass or a martini glass, feel free to garnish to a lemon peel or a little cherry. Enjoy!

Mermaid’s Kisses Cocktail 🍹 🧜‍♀️

We have a beautiful summery cocktail this week that would look gorgeous in a pitcher for a pool party! We actually put our own pin on this cocktail and we can’t wait to try it! We personally used some stemless wine glasses but use the glass of your choice! At least it’s not another martini.

1 ounce of vodka, we actually used three different flavored vodkas although the recipe calls for plain. Use whatever makes you happy!
4 ounces of cream soda
1 ounce of blue curacao
Ice
Lemon for garnish

Fill your glass with ice and then add in your blue curacao. Slowly add in your cream soda and top with vodka! Garnish with your little lemon wedge if you so desire! Cheers!

We clip clop down the road in an Amish buggy this week, of course while carrying a cocktail, The Pennsylvania Cocktail this week! 🐎🌳🐄

This week we make some more martinis, I’m not sure if we are a fan of martinis or perhaps maybe we just like the glasses, so grab your martini glasses and a shaker for this weeks cocktail. This is a super simple cocktail that comes from the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania also know as the Keystone State. Fun fact both Shelby and Taylor grew up in Pennsylvania. You’ll need:

2 oz of light rum
½ oz of pineapple juice
1 dash of grenadine
And a garnish if your little heart desires

Add all of your ingredients into an ice filled shaker, shake that stuff up, and pour it into your martini glass and enjoy! Cheers!

The Ritz Fizz is our cocktail this week and we would love a stay at the Ritz!

Break out those champagne flutes! We have our first bubbly based cocktail! The Ritz Fizz was rumored to be created at the Ritz-Carlton in Boston and was believed to have been introduced in 1934 after Prohibition ended. Another variation of this cocktail reigns from America’s Hat, aka Canada, where they replaced two of the ingredients in this cocktail with apple liqueur.

1/3 ounce of Amaretto
1/3 ounce of blue curacao
1/3 ounce of lemon juice
Champagne is recommended but we say use whatever you’d like. If you prefer prosecco or other sparkling wine give it a go!
1 twist lemon zest for garnish, optional

Fill your champagne flute with ice cubes, slowly add in your amaretto, then blue curacao, then lemon juice and top off with champagne.

While the cats away the mice will play! While Kaitlin's on vacation Taylor and Shelby get some podcast work done with a little help from and maybe some gin. These mixers are delicious and locally made! We highly recommend giving their website a look and ordering yourself one of these fantastic mixes which can make an amazing cocktail or mocktail base!

Look at who Kaitlin ran into on vacation! Even when she is away from the studio somehow the cryptids find her! Or maybe she is a cryptid herself?

This week we tackle one of the things that Taylor hates most...dolls. Thank god we have a drink! This week we pair this terrifying tale, and inspiration for Child's Play, with the Hemingway Daiquiri! A failed attempt to get back at Kaitlin for being a bad bartender in the previous episodes occurs! Although we would love to enjoy the warm water and white sands of the keys, and cuddle some of the Hemingway cats while we're there, we have to take a terrifying trip to the museum where Robert lives. Wish us luck! Grab a glass! Grab a beach chair! And grab your emotional support buddy! You're gonna need it!
