I've never cooked in a crock pot. I own one, but never figured out how throwing raw ingredients into one large electric piece of equipment can possibly have an outcome of a tasty meal. Call me old fashioned, call me a gas stove purist; I just can't do it.
While looking online for recipes (or somewhere to sell my crockpot) I came across drink recipes to cook in the crockpot. The Send Online Blogger Girl thought it would make a fun post and has allowed me to take over your bandwidth for a while. so for those who aren't stuck in the 1950s style of cooking on a range (or barbecue pit, complete with charcoal and lighter fluid) Sendliquor.com presents crock pot cooking to get crocked with:
Hot Rum Punch Recipe
The following list is for three quarts of punch.
Ingredients:
* 2 quarts apple cider

* 1 cup orange juice
* 1 cup lemon juice
* 1 cup cranberry juice
* 3 cinnamon stick
* 1 tablespoon whole cloves
* 1/4 cup sugar
Directions: Place the above ingredients into your Crock Pot Slow Cooker and heat up well. This should take between 30 and 60 minutes. Serve the prepared ingredients with 1 jigger of rum that is added when serving.
Colonial Hot Buttered Rum Recipe
This recipe makes 14 to 15 servings.

Pumpkin pie - not a crust to be found....
Found this incredibly tasty and fun drink recipe for fall. Note, there's nothing that even closely resembles pumpkin, except the name.... and the taste.
Pumpkin Pie in a Glass
1/2 oz Kahlua® coffee liqueur
1/2 oz Bailey's® Irish cream
1/4 oz cinnamon schnapps
Slowly layer ingredients one at a time into a tall shot glass.
Layering a drink is not the easiest thing to do, the trick is to pour it slowly over your bar spoon into the glass so that it does layer atop the previously poured liqeur with the heaviest one being on the bottom.

Who woulda thunk it?!?!
The question the past few days here at the office is "Is there a drink recipe in honor of the NY Yankees?" Well, we racked our brain, consulted with the most savvy of cocktail part planners and bartenders, low and behold. There's quite a few!
This one we found the most fun and befitting of a Yankee fan.
The Yankee Clipper
* 1 oz. Amaretto
* 1 oz. Curacao, blue
* 1 oz. Sour Apple Pucker
* 1 oz. Vodka
* 1 oz. Sour Mix
* 1 splash Sprite
Combine ingredients with ice in a shaker and shake. Serve in a rocker glass, although some die hard Yankee fans do insist it should be served in a dark blue plastic disposable beer cup.
Authenticity, ya know?

Star spangled Weekend
We all had a great time at our supervisor's place on Friday night. The Tropical Itch was as tasty as it sounded and wow did it pack a punch!
The rest of the weekend found your blogger girl tasting different sangrias and wine drinks. Sangria is an incredible drink experience and everyone seems to have their own recipe for it. The traditional recipe calls for Red Wine, carbonated water or water with a citrus flavor, and fruit. Funny what people would call a sangria just because it has fruit in it.
One of the many parties I attended this weekend had a sangria which I swear had peachs schnapps and vodka in it, along with red wine (we're assuming for color as we didn't taste wine). I renamed it "Wrecking Ball" due to the globe shaped glasses they were served in that contained this concoction. Tad strong is what the guests declared. It's an old fashioned with out the mashing part......
For those of us that want to enjoy a sangria in the traditional sense, here is the recipe that most mixologists consider the basic:
1 Bottle of red wine (Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Rioja reds, Zinfandel, Shiraz)
1 Lemon cut into wedges
1 Orange cut into wedges
2 Tbsp sugar
1 Shot brandy
2 Cups ginger ale or club soda
Preparation:
Pour wine in the pitcher and squeeze the juice wedges from the lemon and orange into the wine. Toss in the fruit wedges (leaving out seeds if possible) and add sugar and brandy. Chill overnight. Add ginger ale or club soda just before serving.
Chilling overnight brings out the flavors best to ensure a wonderful drink experience.
Red wines, domestic and imported are all available at our Send Liquor website. The free ground shipping coupon is good until tomorrow when you use the coupon code (good til midnight on 7/7/09) SHIP4SEND. This coupon also gives you $15. off express orders for those who want 2 and 3 day shipping.

What's in a name?
A rose by any other name would smell just as sweet. But here the question is does a drink called Dark and Stormy would taste dark and stormy?
Not really. This drink recipe originally from Bermuda, was probably named that due to the color and carbonation that makes it look like a dark storm in a Collins glass. This is a light summer drink, perfect for those hot summer days or cool summer nights this year.
2 ounces dark rum
4 ounces ginger beer
½ ounce fresh squeezed lime juice
Pour ingredients over ice in a Collins glass, garnish with a lime wedge. Our product testers here at send online (a.k.a. the Send Online Customer Support staff on a Friday night after hours) tried the recipe using ginger beer and ginger ale. Ginger beer may be a bit hard to find depending on what part of the country you are, but the taste is worth the effort in finding ginger beer. It gives it a hot, spicy aftertaste that ginger ale doesn’t.
We recommend using a good spiced rum like Meyer’s or an Appelton Estates for authentic flavor. A dose of the Captain (Captain Morgan’s spiced rum) works well too.
