If you want to avoid queuing up for festival drinks, it’s a good idea to bring your own bottle of water. A bottle of water is much cheaper than buying it at the festival.
You can also prepare a cocktail before going to the festival, and pour it in your YETI. It’s guaranteed to impress!
Buckfast
Buckfast tonic wines are fortified wine with a lot of caffeine. It’s not a very strong alcohol at 15% but it has more caffeine per volume than a can Red Bull. It’s also laden with sugar and flavoring agents. It is still a huge seller despite all of this. It’s made by Benedictine Monks in Devon, England and is consumed throughout the UK and Ireland. It is a favorite of the working-class and student population, as it is among those who drink on the side. Buckfast has earned a reputation for being the drink of choice of Scotland’s feral young people, earning nicknames such as “Wreck The Hoose Juice”, “Commotion Lotion” and “Wreck The Hoose Juice”. In a survey conducted by the Scottish Prison Service in 2007, 43 percent of the inmates said they had drunk Buckfast prior to their last offense.
In Scotland, it’s not uncommon to see brown bottles of the boozy drink littered on the streets of poor housing developments. It’s not uncommon to find young people gulping down large bottles in the middle of the day, either. Buckfast’s drink is so popular that this demographic now accounts for over half of the company’s total sales.
The Abbey is trying to change the negative image of Buckfast. The Abbey has partnered up with Blunos – the chef in Bristol who received two Michelin Stars at his restaurant – to showcase the drink as a cooking beverage. The partnership promotes dishes like onion tarte Tatin, where the boozy drink is reduced to syrup and used as a glaze for the onions. It is also used in cocktail recipes. The Library pub in Oxford recently added a Buckfast Negroni cocktail to its menu. Instead of vermouth, the fortified wine tonic was used to create a sweeter version.
While it’s not a drink for everyone, Buckfast does have some health benefits, such as vitamins B and C. It is also a source of potassium, which aids muscle movement and helps maintain normal blood pressure. Nevertheless, it’s still best enjoyed in moderation. If you are worried about your health, you can reduce your intake of the alcoholic beverage by mixing it with soda or blending it in smoothies.
Jager Bomb
A Jager Bomb is a popular party shot made with Jagermeister and Red Bull. This drink is often dropped into a glass of beer, but can also be made with other caffeinated drinks such as energy drinks or sodas. It’s a fun and easy way to mix alcohol with a fizzy drink. Both adults and teenagers can enjoy it.
Jagermeister is a German herbal liqueur with an assertive bitter taste. It was created in 1934 by Wilhelm Mast and Curt Mass, using 56 different herbs and spice, including ginseng and black licorice. The drink has an alcoholic content of 35%. It is often mixed with an energy drink, such as Red Bull. This helps to offset the depressant effect of the liqueur.
Alcohol and caffeine should be consumed in moderation. The CDC warns that alcohol mixed with caffeine can mask the effects of the alcohol, making it easier to consume more than intended. This can lead to serious consequences, so consuming shots like the Jager Bomb should be done in moderation.
Pour the Red Bull can into a tall or pint-sized glass, leaving space for the shot. Fill a shotglass with Jagermeister. Then, drop the shot in the energy drink. The mixture will produce a fizzy and colorful reaction.
Some people prefer pouring the Jagermeister into the Red Bull directly, avoiding the “bomb” effects and reducing the alcohol consumption. Others use a double-bubble shot glass (like the Quaffer) to make a more colorful presentation. It is important to make sure that everyone is ready for the shot to be dropped, so that it happens at the same time and is completed in one fluid motion. This can be achieved by counting down (3.. 2… 1!) Toast the glass by either sprinkling it with a little salt or if you prefer, toasting it.
The Jager Bomb can be a great drink to get you through a festival, or dance event. It’s easy-to-make and has a lot of flavor. It’s a great conversation starter if you can impress friends with your impressive visual reaction.
Jelly Shots
Jelly Shots can be a fun way to spice up your cocktail party. The basic formula is flavored gelatin and alcohol, usually vodka. Then, a mixture of a second alcohol is poured over the first one to create layers. You can even use different shaped shots to make them festive. These jello shots will be a big hit at your next event.
Jello shots can be found at frat, bachelorette and other parties where a little drinking is acceptable. They are easy-to-prepare and come in many colors and flavors. Although jello shots tend to be associated with cheap alcohol, they can actually be made with any type of liquor. They also help to disguise the taste of the alcohol, allowing people to drink more than they would if they were drinking straight vodka.
You can make jello shots with any flavoring, including candy, chocolate and fruit juice. You can find jello shot with colored sugars, which are perfect for themed parties. For example, you can make a set of green jello shots for Halloween to look like a mad scientist experiment.
While jello shots can be made with almost any type of alcohol, vodka is the most common choice. This is because it has a neutral flavor that will complement many other flavors. But you can also try other spirits, such as rum, tequila, whiskey, gin or peach schnapps.
Be sure to use the right ratio of gelatin and alcohol when making jello shots. If you add too much alcohol, the resulting jello will be liquidy and may not be able to hold its shape. To determine if jello shots have reached the right consistency, gently shake each one. If the jello holds its shape and feels firm to the touch then it is ready to be served.
To make a more adult version of jello shots, you can use a combination of vodka and apple liqueur to create an interesting flavor. You can also add a splash of lime juice to give the shots a zesty kick. Add a dollop or two of whipped crème and an espresso beans to each shot for a delicious, festive treat.
Vodka
Vodka can be consumed on its own, or in cocktails. It’s a staple on many happy hour menus and bartenders often use it to mix with other types of liquor and beverages. It can be bold and flavorful or plain and mild, depending on the type of vodka used.
Vodka can be a healthy choice for those looking to cut back on carbohydrates. The fermentation process removes most carbohydrate from the original grains or potatoes and the alcohol processing removes most sugar. Any drink that contains over 40% alcohol by volume is likely to contain a lot of calories.
If you’re planning on going to a festival this year, it’s a good idea to start saving up your plastic drinks bottles in the run up to the event. You will not be allowed to bring in any glass bottles but you can decant booze and save money and time by waiting in the queues for drinks at the festival.
You can also invest in a few reusable vodka bottles to keep your drinks cool throughout the day. These bottles can be kept in the coolers in the festival bars, and you can even rig up your own fridge to keep them colder if needed. If you are a technophile you can find bottles that come with an integrated LED so you can view the contents even in low light.
