Congratulations, Joe Minotaur!
Harold and I want to thank all of you who submitted drinkie-poos to the Kapu Drink Contest. It was a close finish and a few points separated the winning drink… but Joe Minotaur’s submission won out. Each drink was judged by four people judges (I recused myself from judging) and one
stufftie, Harold. Our guest judge, David, tended bar in San Francisco, and had good insights. Drinks were given a score (from 1 to 5) on each of the following… taste, creativity, appearance, and proper potency.
So without any further a do… Here’s the new KAPU…
KAPU:
One part Frangelico
one part Grenadine
one part Sambuca
one part Dark Rum (Malibu Black).
Serve in a tall glass with ice.
THIS IS KAPU… it is rather strong (Harold added some diet ginger ale to the mix…. he’d had a few too many at that point).
I’d like to thank the Academy… CHEERS!
How many entries did you have? Any colateral damage?
I would have joined you tonight, but Sunday’s my day of rest and that includes alcohol. I did get my summer car(Mazda Miata) all charged up and took it for a spin. It’s a great little car, but the seat doesn’t fit my seat wery well.
ANYWAY!!! You like me! You really like me!!
My sincere congratulations Joe.
There were three… and therefore the damage was nil because Judy made delicious homemade pizzas to go along with! It was a most enjoyable afternoon evening… filled with serious discussion about the drink entries, arguments over Rolling Stones’ Top 100 Songs of all time (and why Nirvana was included in the top 10) and the fact that Harold didn’t get blitzed off his stuffing. Thank goodness the judging happened at home here so he didn’t have to find a way home (not that I wouldn’t have held him). David, the former bartender, his lovely wife Olga, Minions Judy & Nelson judged (and Harold)… and I sat it out as I know all the Squiddie participants and didn’t want any bias.
It’s adorable that you’d hold Harold in his drunken state, sort of like a cuddling a little, burping and puking baby, only with an alcoholic twist.
stick… if he had ears, I’d hold his ears while he….
I give it a try, thanks Joe.
Ooh ooh…
a splash of Reeds Extra Ginger Brew instead of diet ginger ale.
