Recession Specials: Kool-Aid Libre
The weather is warming up and the grills are coming out. Everyone knows a summer BBQ isn’t complete without two things: booze and Kool-Aid. During economically straining times such as these, the cost of mixers for your booze can start to become a burden–especially when you can use that money towards hard liquor to forget your shitty job and rising debt. Have no fear, the summer recipe for the poor man’s drink is here: Kool-Aid Libre
In Spanish, the classic Rum + Coke is called a Cuba Libre. The poor-man’s twist to this classic cocktail is to replace the Coke with the more wallet-friendly Kool-Aid — hence the name “Kool-Aid Libre”.
The mixologist, the bartender, the creator, Yari putting her creation into full effect! Kool-Aid Libre. Recipe Below
What you need:
2 10 cent packs of Cherry Kool-Aid
1 Bacardi Razz bottle
1 Drink Container and 0 Shame
Procedure:
1. Fill up your drink container about 3/4s of the way with the Cherry Kool-Aid mix.
2. Fill up the rest of the container with the Bacardi Razz.
3. Stir.
4. Drink.
Follow these simple instructions you’ll be enjoying a fiscally-friendly cocktail in no time!
Tips:
Don’t have the budget for sky-high priced city drinks? Put your Kool-Aid libre in a red Gatorade bottle and enjoy your PATH ride into the city with your low budget wonder. By the time you reach your destination you’ll be so bombed they’ll be no need to shell out $17 for a watered down cocktail.
Warning: When mixed with the Cherry Kool-Aid, the hint of any hard liquor in the mix is virtually undetectable due to the rum’s raspberry flavoring. At first it may seem like there isn’t enough booze mixed. But, don’t be fooled! CHEERS!
