Halloween Cocktails #10, Root Beer of all Evil

by Merlene

Root Beer of all EvilI had no idea that Root Beer came from the extract of the root and bark of the Sassafras tree. My earliest memory of root beer were the giant frosty mugs at A&W. We’d order through a speaker from the car and then the waitress would bring the tray of mama and papa burgers and place it on the passenger window and then another tray would arrive with the massive mugs of root beer.

For this Halloween drink, we used our Three Olives Root Veer Vodka and Root Beer from Jones Soda. We topped it off with a generous scoop of Haagen Dazs vanilla ice cream and a maraschino cherry. Deliciously evil.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 oz Three Olives Root Beer Vodka
  • 4 oz Jones Soda Root Beer
  • 3/4 oz Amaretto Liqueur
  • 1 scoop Haagen Dazs Vanilla Ice Cream

Preparation
Pour the vodka and root beer over ice. Shake, then strain into a chilled cocktail glass. Garnish with a maraschino cherry

Float On, Float on… Double Cherry Root Beer Vodka Floatini

Double Cherry Root Beer Vodka Floatini

Double Cherry Root Beer Vodka Floatini

A few months ago we were perusing the shelves of the LCBO and spotted bottles of Three Olives Root Beer Vodka. Memories flooded back to the days of the local A&W drive-in, which served up giant  mugs of ice-cold root beer on those crazy window trays. After a few more trips down memory lane, we knew we had to add this to our Madtini Lab supply.

Last weekend we attended the Toronto Drinks Show. The lineup at the Three Olives booth showed that we were not the only ones curious about this product. The mixologist added some coke, whipped cream and a maraschino cherry to the root beer vodka producing a delicious drink. We took that idea and ran with it – adding two scoops of vanilla ice cream in place of the whipped cream and doubling up on the cherry. Madtini is proud to present the Double Cherry Root Beer Floatini.

Cheers folks – we’re going back for seconds 🙂
