On the 1st weekend of October, we have our college reunion. We are meeting after 14 long years. (gosh, I’m old!). I’ve self appointed myself as the official bartender. We are meeting in Pondicherry and you can be sure that alcohol will have very high priority.
I’m taking my role of bartender very seriously and looking for tips for the most exotic cocktails. I have a couple of books on cocktails and have covered the most popular ones a la bloody Marys, cosmopolitans, Sex on the beaches etc.
What I’m looking for is for exotic, custom made, self-created recipes. Like this one from Kanchuki and Kongkona sarma who gave me tips about injecting multiple doses of vodka into ripe watermelons and then chopping them up for munching.
Or the popular Pani Puris with Vodka water.
How about chopping off the top of tender coconut, adding in 3 drops of honey, a pinch of Jaljira and 90ml vodka. And drink it right off the coconut!
What other ideas have you got? Love to hear from you guys.
You can either leave the ideas in the comments below or email me at kiruba@kiruba.com . I will collate every idea on the blog so that all of us can benefit.
Fire away.

Pretty interesting ones there.
Devyani, you rock. thanks a lot for the link. Lovely variations. Life saver.
How ’bout Rum milkshakes and Brandy syrup for pancakes?
And nothing would get better than some original Irish coffee! Black coffee with whisky!
A tip : Make ur own coffee liqueor. Make some sweetened black coffee with any instant coffee or filter coffee. For evry glass of coffee add 15 ml black rum (prefer Old Monk). Let it cool and then store it in a bottle. You can use this as a mixer in your coffee-based cocktails.
Anothr good thing is to open a bottle of vodka and put 2 mild green chillies sliced into halves into it. Let the pungentness of the chillies infuse the vodka for a day or two. U can do the same with apple or any other strong flavored food.
i meant to type ‘strong flavored fruit’. Sorry for the typo.
I agree with the green chilly thing – its a cool idea. and when u serve the drink, slice a green chilly and put it on the rim, so people know what they are going for.
Hope you find the watermelon idea useful
what u need is:
the Drinkspiration application by Absolut Vodka

Take a glass of “mor”, add chopped chillies, cilantro and a dash of mint, lemon juice!
Try Vodka with condensed milk- its a very popular cocktail in Peru. Make sure both are mixed well..u may need to shake it for atleast an hour
The best recipe would be Vodka with Tender Coconut… If you serve it in the coconut itself it would be great.

I’d suggest something simple:
Whipped Mango ice-cream with just the right amount of Bacardi white rum. Makes for an ultra-smooth drink
