I need to get rid of a lot of alcohol in my house so I figured I might as well drink it all. Let's have some fun with it though. The rules are simple: I'll give you the inventory, you give me the recipe, I make it. I'll make tasting notes on all the drinks (good or bad), then rate them. The winner gets mad e-cred, maybe an official 'Booties Seal of Approval'©. If it's VERY good I'll even put it on the menu of the bar I work at and you can name it (pics to prove it will follow of course).
So here's what I got to work with
