Hello! Questions. Are you a 13-year-old girl and yet somehow also of
drinking age? Do you love morose and sparkly he-vampires and
also getting shitfaced on expensive potato juice (with berries!)? Are
you totally psyched about not humping before marriage and someday
having a beast-baby (with talons!) MortalKombat its way
out of your womb-sac? Or, second option, are you a middle-aged
businessman trying to earn some sexual-hugging points with Sally
Secretary? (Daps, bro.)

Well. Hey there. If you are one of them peoples mentioned above (see
above), this is a slightly above average day for you and y’all’s
peoples! In honor of the recently birthed The Twilight Saga: New
Moon
, two local bars (Canlis and the Sorrento’s Hunt Club) have
bottled that movie’s frosty, viscous afterbirth and turned it
into two new signature cocktails! Eww, self! Why did you say
“afterbirth”? I don’t know, self! Shut up and drink the vampire juice!
Figuratively!

(Just so’s you know: Canlis’s cocktail is called The Temptation of
Edward Cullen, and it uses pine liqueur and walnut wine “to create a
biting crisp taste just hinting of a forest and visually feeling
like vampire
“; and the Hunt Club’s is The Bella-Edward,
representing “the forces of good and evil” by way of raspberry puree
and balsamic reduction.)

Inventing new cocktails to go with new movies seemed like such a
good idea, I came up with a few myself. Here they are. They are
really good. You’re welcome.

  1. The end of the world is upon us.
    (Adding in, to ruin the already slightly sh!tty sentence before) Also, even when I was 13 I wasn’t a twihard. Cut the kids some slack.
    But then again, we’re all going to die anyway.
