It begins with “The Pickup Line” (Ketel One, Peach Schnaps, Blue Curacao, and Apple Juice), which tastes sweet and flirty, much like the promising possibilities of a first date.

This is followed by “Small Talk” ( Ketel One, Chardonnay, Lemon Juice, Grapes), flavorful enough to fill in the silent lulls between conversation. Topped with a sprinkling of salt, this cocktail has just the right amount of zing to ease you through a date’s awkward beginnings.

A serving of “Truth or Dare” (Ketel One, Sprite, Buleberry, Strawberry, Ginger) soon follows, featuring a spectacle of smoky liquid nitrogen flowing through one end of a bamboo contraption to freeze up the shot glasses at the other end of the tube. This 3rd drink sets the pace as your date night gets more interesting.

As with every perfect date, a “Take Me Home Tonight” (Ketel One, Rosé, Sprite) practically seals the deal when spoken, or in this case, consumed. Simple and strong, this cocktail is every bit like an honest request in its straightforwardness. No wonder the guys like it!
