Drink Recipes for Episode #09: Wonder Woman and Wonder Woman 2.0

I've got a gaming tourney tonight; I think I'll pregame with one of tonight's cocktails. Even if you're not a gamer and/or off to defend a championship belt tonight (like me), you should still give one or more of these delicious drinks a try. Kick off your weekend like the hottest, most badass superheroine - Wonder Woman.

During EP #09, I recommended Wonder Woman and one of our own concoctions, Wonder Woman 2.0.

If you like your drinks light and fruity, try the Wonder Woman cocktail. It's a sweet, tropical delight, no doubt created in honor of Wonder Woman's island homeland.

Wonder Woman (according to drinksmixer.com)
  • 2 oz Midori® melon liqueur
  • 2 oz peach schnapps
  • 3 oz orange juice
  • 1 oz pineapple juice
  • 2 oz cranberry juice
Wonder Woman is an Amazonian warrior-princess and as such, we thought she deserved a cocktail that packs a powerful punch (just like she would). So, we created Wonder Woman 2.0; this is not a cocktail for the faint of heart.

Wonder Woman 2.0
  • 1/4 pt Absinthe 
  • 1/4 pt dry vermouth
  • 1 pt vodka*
  • 1 pt gin 
  • squirt of fresh lemon juice
  • Garnish w/ a cherry
*Note:  I've tried this cocktail with flavored and non-flavored vodka. If you want to go the flavored route, I recommend Stoli® Peachik, Blueberi, or Cranberi.
