Brian's Frozen Cosmopolitan
  I created this one after having had a standard cosmopolitan for the first time and loving it. Also, tequila prices were going up and my soon to be wife and I were frozen margarita freaks.
 
12 oz. Can   Frozen Cranberry Juice Cocktail.  
18 oz.    Vodka  
9 oz.    Orange Liquer, 80 proof  
8 oz.    Lime Juice  
  
 
 
1 Combine all ingredients.
2 Divide into thirds and freeze thouroughly.
3 Put single batch into a blender full of ice.
4 Rizz and enjoy.
 
 
Yield: 3 blender batches
 
 Cooking Tips
3 cans cranberry juice cocktail, 1.75 liter bottle vodka, 1 liter bottle of orange liquer, and of course 24 oz. lime juice are sufficient for a triple of the recepie (nine batches).
Mix the triple batch in a cleaned empty two liter plastic bottle then divide into three 16 oz. bottles for freezing.
Fresh squeezed lime juice is the best.
 

 Brian's Frozen Mai Tai
  I created this one after having had some good ones on honeymoon in Hawaii. It is based on Trader Vic's Original Mai Tai recipie.
 
11 oz.    Light Rum  
11 oz.    Gold Rum  
11 oz.    Dark Rum  
5 oz.    Orange Liquer, 60 proof  
5 oz.    Orgeat Syrup  
5 oz.    Lime Juice  
  
 
 
1 Combine all ingredients.
2 Divide into thirds and freeze thouroughly.
3 Put single batch into a blender full of ice.
4 Rizz and enjoy.
 
 
Servings: 6
Yield: 3 blender batches
 
 Cooking Tips
1 liter bottle of each of the rums, 1/2 liter bottle of orange liquer, and of course 15 oz. of lime juice are sufficient for a triple of the recipe (nine batches). Orgeat syrup is usually sold in liters.
Mix the triple batch in a cleaned empty two liter plastic bottle then divide into three 16 oz. bottles for freezing.
Fresh squeezed lime juice is the best.

I'm a big  wine fan... preferrably French or Chilean... Mostly red, but white wine is slowly increasing in my consumption
