8 Comic Book Cocktails For Your New Year’s Party

 

 

Not to toot my own horn even more than one would expect from writing on my own website, but I’m pretty awesome at the field of amateur mixology, which is why the excellent Cathy Leamy took the time a few weeks back to ask what I’d put in a cocktail called the Emma Frost.

So today, in preparation for New Year’s Eve, the Drinkingest Night of All, I’ve written up fully drinkable (well, mostly drinkable) recipes for eight comic book themed cocktails! The Green Lantern! The Red Lantern! The Deadpool! And my personal favorite, The KGBeast! There’s even one in there dedicated to you!

The only one of mine that I didn’t include is The J. Jonah Jameson: Jameson whiskey in a pint glass. No ice. Drink while hating Spider-Man. Cheers!

  1. I see a reoccuring column Sims. Truly some tippling genius. My gf, who has accepted my comic addiction up to now (including giving her some of your holiday cards), may think I have hit a new high (or low) when I mix her up one of these badboys.

  2. lollllll the Comments Section is hilarious but I seriously need to try the KGBeast.

    Also, best gif ever.

  3. For a moment I thought you’d posted hidden camera footage from our New Years Eve party – then I realised that none of my mates drink beer in stemmed glasses. Whew!

    Happy New Year all!

  4. While I sometimes tremble at the thought of what Chris Sims, History’s Greatest Villain, might do with animated .GIF technology, this image is awesome.

  5. I made the KGBeast last night and it was fantastic. However, I modified the recipe and added a half a teaspoon of Maxwell House Instant Cappuccino Vanilla Caramel and that turned out even better.

    Thanks for the great recipe!

  6. I love how Superman’s glass mysteriously refills itself as he puts it back down, then the level of scotch dips just before he refills it. It’s almost as if he weren’t ACTUALLY drinking! Although someone as wholesome as Supes probably never learned how. I can imagine Guy Gardner trying to explain it: “See, Supes, the deal is that the alcohol is supposed to go INTO your body.” And then Supes responding, “INTO my….BODY?!!!?” Bwahaha.
