___A note from the creators:First up the Gallifrey Double Sunrise! A sweet and tart cocktail with a cherry kick to it that rounds it out very nicely.
Second up Regeneration Energy! Sometimes you just need to sit back, recover and regain yourself. What better way to do that then with time lord energy? this has a very sweet and understated taste that will give you the energy to keep on going through waves of daleks.

ChristMMOs: League of Legends: Eggnog Health & Mana Potions
Merry ChristMMOs! This festive season, Gourmet Gaming will be celebrating with a selection of treats from your favourite MMOs to bring a little bit of gaming to your table this holiday season.
The League of Legends seasonal event is known as the “Snowdown Showdown”. During this time, many festive fares slip into the world with one of the regular changes being the trade-in of the traditional Health and Mana potions for ones of the Eggnog variety! Here in the UK, Eggnog isn’t very popular. So when I saw my chance to taste the drink that saturated my favourite Christmas cartoons and movies as a kid, I couldn’t turn it down.

Green, Red, and Yellow Herbs (Resident Evil shots)
Ingredients:
Green Herb:
1 part Midori
1 part Green Apple Pucker
___Red Herb:
1 part Grenadine
1 part 5 Hour Energy - Berry flavored
___Yellow Herb:
1 part Gold rum (Bacardi Gold used)
1 part Honey bourbon (American Honey used)Directions: For each individual shot, simply mix ingredients in a test tube shot glass. To create herb combinations, mix the shots up in separate glasses, the layer them according to density. Red is the heaviest and will always go on the bottom, Green is the next heaviest, and Yellow is the lightest. For the best effect when layering, make sure all your ingredients are chilled beforehand. Tilt the test tubes and pour the shots in so that they slide down the side of the tube.
Notes: I’ve had the idea for these shots for almost as long as The Drunken Moogle has existed, but refused to do so until I got the proper glassware. I modeled the herbs after my favorite Resident Evil game, Resident Evil 4.
Green- The basic herb. It’s nice nice and soothing.
Red- The catalyst herb. Alone, it will do nothing for you (thus the lack of alcohol and addition of caffeine in this shot), but mix it with a green herb and you’ll get something new.
Yellow- The stat increase herb. This shot won’t increase your overall health, but it’s certainly the strongest herb out of the three shots. Mix it with Green or both Green and Red for a strength boost.Drinks created and photographed by Mitch Hutts of The Drunken Moogle.

Freeze Ray - Dr. Horrible:
1 oz Vodka
1.5 oz Creme de menthe
Sprite (~5 oz)Directions: Fill a highball glass with crushed ice. Add in the alcoholic ingredients and fill with Sprite (around 5 oz). Stir, serve and stop the world.
“This is the one. Stops time. Freeze Ray. Tell your friends.” - Dr. Horrible
___The Hammer - Captain Hammer:
1 oz Captain Morgan Spiced Rum
1 oz Whiskey
1 oz Peach schnapps
Root BeerDirections: Mix alcoholic ingredients in a lowball glass over ice. Fill with your favorite root beer. Flex, serve, and be awesome.
“I don’t go to the gym, I’m just naturally like this.” - Captain Hammer
___Crazy Random Happenstance - Penny:
1/2 cup Strawberry Frozen Yogurt
2 oz RumChata rum cream
.5 oz Amaretto
5 Strawberries
4 Ice cubesDirections: Set aside one strawberry and blend the rest of the items. Pour into a large glass and garnish with the remaining strawberry. Serve and stay positive.
“We would be able to provide 250 new beds, get people off the streets and into job training so they could… buy rocket packs and go to the moon and become florists…” - Penny
___Notes: I had a ton of fun creating these drinks. Two years ago I saw Dr. Horrible on a whim and fell in love with it. I am anxiously awaiting the sequel!
Freeze Ray - To keep with the freezing theme, I wanted to have a drink with lots of ice and a minty flavor.
The Hammer - What is there to say about the Captain Hammer? He’s strong, not too bright, and kind of a wimp without his powers. The Captain Morgan and whiskey make a strong drink, but the peach schnapps reveals a hidden layer under the hardness. Be careful, as this cocktail might be sweet, but it will hit you like a hammer.
Crazy Random Happenstance - I couldn’t make a drink for Penny without including frozen yogurt. I’m very happy with how the glass I used is similar in size and shape to a frozen yogurt cup. This drink is sweet, innocent, and a perfect treat to give to a laundromat buddy.Drinks created and photographed by Mitch Hutts of The Drunken Moogle.

A note from the drink’s creator:
The Golden Goddesses. The most powerful creatures in the myths and folklore, they created the world and everything it holds. They bestowed three gifts upon Link to aid on his quest against Ganandorf. We created a series of shots to honor these deities that bound and built the land of Hyrule. you can either do them one after another or just pick your favorite and do it solo. Either way, we are sure you will enjoy these very well crafted shots.
Naru, who poured her wisdom onto the earth and gave the spirit of law to the world. This shoot is smooth, sweet, and gives you a nice arm feeling all throughout.
Din, who with her strong flaming arms, cultivated the land and created the red earth. To encapsulated this shot as best as possible, we gave it a smooth start, a little kick in the middle, and a strong fiery after punch.
Farore, whose rich soul produced all life forms, who would uphold the law. With a calming neutral citrus burst to balance out the tastes and bring them all together.
“If the heart of the one who holds the sacred triangle has all three forces in balance, that one will gain the True Force to govern all. But, if that one’s heart is not in balance, the Triforce will separate into three parts: Power, Wisdom and Courage.” ~Zelda
