any recipes for "virgin" blender drinks? am on meds that can't drink any liquor at all.
Thank you.

Tipsy - We've had that question on the forum before, I'll see if I can search out the thread. But basically, you can make any tropical drink... just leave out the booze!

Edit: I can't seem to find that discussion, but here's the OT Forum cocktail thread, there are 22 pages and I'm sure there's something "virgin" in there, or adapt.

Thank you.

The irony of your screen name relative to a virgin drink is not lost on me. Hope you can get off those meds soon.

Good catch !! No luck w/meds,have a life sentence. But there is always a designated driver in the "house" so that's good.

Ingredients
1/2 ounce rum (Cruzan is the best, but use whatever brand you have)
1/2 ounce vodka (any brand)
1/2 ounce Baileys Irish Cream (or a similar off-brand name)
1/2 ounce Kahlua (or a coffee flavored off-brand name)
1/2 ounce amaretto liqueur (any brand)
1/2 ounce chococo chocolate-flavored liqueur
1/2 ounce Frangelico (I recommend it) (optional)
1/2 ounce creme de coconut (a MUST - "Coco Lopez" is best)
1 cup crushed ice (more or less to make the proper consistency)
3 dashes of grated nutmeg
1 tablespoon whipped cream
1 maraschino cherry
Directions
1 Put everything, except nutmeg, whipped cream and cherries in a blender and use enough ice that when blended will be the consistency of a milkshake.
2 Blend, pour into glasses, and top with whipped cream, a cherry, and a couple dashes of grated nutmeg.
3 Enjoy!
4 But use caution!
5 They taste like there is no alcohol in them and most people have a tendency to get"bushwacked!"
6 Haha!

Hi, got some great recipes from the site, thank you again. Will think of you when take my 1st drink on STJ.

Best margarita around...(If you can source "Damiana")
http://www.damiana.net/

6 oz frozen limeaid (small container) into blender
fill blender with ice
6 oz tequila (empty limeaid can for measuring works)
3 oz triple sec
3 oz Damiana

Blend, pour, watch the sunset (sunrise as the case may be)...

All the best, Scott

After a disappointing first attempt, I've hit in a good one. It tastes delicious, and I can't help but guzzle it. It doesn't have a name but here is the recipe: (Mango Colada?)
One Mango
Six ounces of Pineapple Juice
Heaping Tablespoon of frozen Orange Juice Concentrate
Juice from one Key Lime
Four ounces of Coconut milk
One and a half ounces Dark Rum
One and a half ounces Light Rum
Blend until smooth. Pour. Sprinkle Nutmeg on top. Enjoy.
