So for the chance to win $2007 dollars cash, apparently I'll whore myself out to anyone. I've entered this contest (seemingly directed towards the nightclub scene, we won't be carrying this at Meriwethers), simply because I've probably never needed 2k like I do right now. Not that you can ever count on winning money in a contest. Life just doesn't work that way, and these things are so subjective. "Phil", apparently my local Vitaminwater Energy drink rep, dropped off a mixed case of this stuff at my job so that I could experiment with it a little bit. I got 4 cans each of Tropical Citrus (the yellow can), Dragonfruit (the red can) and Fruit Punch (the purple can). I've had this stuff before, as a straight energy drink, and I don't think its particularly memorable, but it does the trick. Its only slightly carbonated, and apparently contains a ton of sugar (50g of sugar in the Fruit Punch, JESUS CHRIST!). Well, I attempted two cocktails right off the bat with less than stellar results. I don't really make sweet drinks, and this stuff is sweet AND thin, so it kind of disappears in a cocktail. So far, its a complete bitch trying to balance these damn things out. Here are the first two losers;
The Rum Booty-
2 oz Bacardi light
1/2 oz John D. Taylors Velvet Falernum (big mistake)
3 dashes orange bitters
3 oz Dragonfruit Vitaminwater energy drink
3 oz Tropical Citrus Vitaminwater energy drink
Build over rocks in a bucket.
The Tijuana Puta
2 Cazadores Reposado Tequila
3 dashes grapefruit bitters
3 oz Dragonfruit Vitaminwater energy drink
3 oz Fresh Grapefruit Juice
Back to the drawing board. Maybe I'll just foam this crap. I'm open to any and all ideas right now, if you help me to achieve victory, I'll kick you $7 in prize money.

Dragonfruit!!! Oddly, I was in the car with my buddy Sang last night, and he pulled a fresh dragonfruit out of his bag while looking for something else.
I saw go with the foam (because I NEEEED that $7). Maybe some vitaminwater foam atop a vitaminwater jello shot...
I don't reallyCheap GW2 Gold create fairly sweet refreshments, and also this things is good AND lean, in order that it type of is gone inside a tropical drink. To date, their a total slut trying to equilibrium these types of damn things available. Listed here are the
