Hpno Cake

Day 359

Hpno Cake

4.5 shots out of 5

Happy Friday everyone!  It is unbelievable, but next Friday will be my very last day of my challenge!  Can you believe it?  I will have done 366 cocktails when I am finished.....that's a LOT of alcohol!  Sheeesh.  Today marking my 8 days and counting to go, I wanted to share with you the 8th cocktail I made on my blog which is my Blue Hawaiian.  Boy I really liked that one and have made it since!

I gave today's cocktail 4.5 shots out of 5.  Truth be told, I found a recipe on facebook today that was posted my Hpnotiq.  I made the cocktail and just now realized that I had forgotten one ingredient (is my brain on Friday mode already?  guess so....), so I decided to change the name and call it my own.  This is a nice tasty cocktail.  It may be a little sweet for some, but apparently I was in the mood for "a little sweet".  I halved the amount of the ingredients that I remembered to put in the cocktail and made myself a martini sized shooter.  Note: Yes I DO still hate sprinkles....but the original recipe called for them, so what can you do?

Here is my recipe for a Hpno Cake:

• 1 oz Hpnotiq
• 1/2 oz cake vodka
• sprinkles to rim the glass

In a shaker, add ice and the first two ingredients.  Shake and strain into a sprinkle rimmed martini shot glass......or any shaped sprinkle rimmed shot glass.

Here's to Friday!  I hope you all have a wonderful weekend and let me know if you try any amazing cocktails!

Cheers!!

Hpnotiq Blue

Day 271

Hpnotiq Blue

4.5 shots out of 5

Three day holiday weekends are awesome.  

I love having the kids home for an extra day.  

They get to sleep in......well the older ones do at least and we all get to just hang out, that is until Tae Kwon Do, get together's with friends and soccer practice.

I gave tonight's cocktail 4.5 shots out of 5.  

Hpnotiq goes very well with vodka.......very well I must say.  

Sure you can add other ingredients in with the two, but if you don't have anything but Hpnotiq and vodka in the house, then you're good!  

This shooter is a perfect evening starter with friends.  It gives you a little bite, but goes down pretty darn smooth.  

I really enjoyed tonight's cocktail......a lot.  

I got this recipe from the Hpnotiq site.
