1. Klingon Blood Wine by Drinknation

Star Trek: The Next Generation Work (Michael Dorn) Klingons Drinking Blood Wine

Made famous by Star Trek: The Next Generation

Bloodwine is a popular alcoholic beverage among the Klingons, usually served warm.  Klingon foods and beverages are serious business, and in the Star Trek universe this is no exception. On the show bloodwine is highly intoxicating. Twice as potent as whiskey. Thankfully, this drink is very different. There’s no blood in this recipe, but it’s really good stuff. Very sweet, with a kick from the tabasco and spiced rum.

Ingredients

• 1 oz. Rum, spiced (Captain Morgan’s)
• 1 oz. Tequila, gold (Jose Cuervo Especial)
• Fill with Cranberry Juice
• 1 dash Grenadine
• 2 dashes Tabasco Sauce

Mixing Instructions

1. Add tabasco sauce to an ice-filled beer mug or glass.
2. Pour in the tequila, rum and grenadine, and fill with cranberry juice.
3. Shake twice and serve.

Tip: Sweeten to your own taste with Welch’s pure dark grape juice. Blend up some strawberries or raspberries to give it a thicker consistency.

2. Slurm by The Baltimore Chop

Futurama – Bender and Fry drinking Slurm

Made famous by Futurama

Good news everyone! “It’s Highly Addictive!” Almost. First seen on the animated show Futurama the drink is incredibly popular and actually the secretion of a giant worm. This drink recipe is definitely not addictive. In fact, its pretty gross. Too sweet and the mix of pineapple juice and schnapps are an…interesting choice. Do yourself a favor and pour it on ice and double up on the pineapple juice. Mix in a little lime jello to get the right consistency.

Ingredients

• 2 oz. light rum
• 1 oz. sour apple schnapps
• 2 oz. pineapple juice
• 3 oz. 7 up.

Mixing Instructions

1. Pour all the ingredients into a large glass and stir

3. Romulan Ale by Smith Bites

The effect of a Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster is described as having your brains smashed out by a slice of lemon, wrapped ’round a large gold brick.
