The non-alcoholic, straight edge Duck Fick is a black-pepper infused limeade.

To do it fancy, first make black pepper simple syrup:

1 cup water

1 cup sugar

1-2 tbsp of black peppercorns, lightly crushed

Put everything in a saucepan and boil and stir until the sugar is completely dissolved. 

Let cool, then strain out the remaining peppercorns. 

Store in the refrigerator.

Then make the limeaide:

3 cups cold water

3/4 cup lime juice

3/4 cup black pepper simple syrup.

-------------

To do it cheaply, buy a 64 oz bottle of limeaide.

Add 2-3 tbsp lightly crushed black peppercorns.  Allow to steep in the refrigerator overnight, then strain out the remaining peppercorns. 

-------------------------------

For the (alcoholic) Cuck Funt

1/2 can Cola

1 shot black pepper infused vodka

1 splash lime juice

Pour all three over ice.

Ma’mahu’s Cloud changes color using Butterfly Peaflower tea!

Infuse 1 cup tequila with 2 peaflower tea bags for at least 1 hour.

Mix and shake:

1/2 shot lime juice

1/2 shot triple sec

splash of simple syrup

pinch of edible glitter or lustre dust

Place 1 shot peaflower infused tequila in a fancy glass rimmed with sparkling salt or sugar, your choice

Carefully strain the contents of the shaker and watch it go from blue to pink!

Drop a cloud of cotton candy on top for sweetness.

Theskazi Sparkle (non-alcoholic!)

Make 1 cup blue peaflower tea and fill a glass rimmed with sparkle sugar halfway

Mix lime juice and lemonade 1:1 and pour on top of the tea -- watch it go from blue to pink!

Buddy Brew

6 ounces cranberry juice (1/2 a small bottle or can) 6 ounces ginger beer (1/2 a bottle) 1 shot lemon juice 12 ounces (1 can) beer (wheat beer or pale ale)

Finely chop crystalized ginger and mix 1:1 with sugar, use to rim the glass

Pour all three (chilled) ingredients together in glass, and stir well with bendy straw.

Best when drunk with a buddy, so you can use up the whole containers of the juice and ginger beer.

Warren Wellington

Begin with a highball glass, cut from the Samson family power crystals so that your drink will slowly leach magical power into you

Take one Rough Cut Demerara Sugar Cube, and charm it to glow gently in time with the rise and fall of the stock market. Put it in the bottom of the glass.

Add a single drop of Angostura bitters.

Pour 1oz cognac over the sugar (preferably Courvoisier L'Esprit de Cognac)

Fill glass with champagne (Pol Roger Sir Winston Churchill 1988 would be best)

Garnish with gold leaf 

Approximate cost with magical accouterments: $2500/glass

Professor Montana Styles

2oz bourbon

1oz sweet vermouth

1oz orange liquor

2 dashes bitters 

Garnish with orange peel

Just a little tweak from the old Cowboy Killer Manhattan

Karina Jarsdel 

It needs to be sparkling, I think, and a little sassy. And definitely pink: 

2oz tequila

2oz club soda

2oz grapefruit juice

a splash of lime juice 

a teaspoon of sugar for sweetness 

Mietto and Roxy: Paired cocktails that taste great both together and separate.

Mietto

1oz Aperol 

1oz lemon or orange juice, depending on how sweet you like it

Belgian wheat beer

Put the Aperol and juice in a pint glass, then fill with beer.  Well balanced, herbal, sometimes a little sweet, and red with a white tip for that foxy touch.

Roxy

2oz rum

1oz Kahlua

1oz banana liquor

2oz cream

1 whole banana 

Put all ingredients in a blender and serve cold. Definitely sweet, strong and substantial - maybe more than you thought at first glance - and it absolutely must be served with a little paper parasol.

Delilah Eversong

Juice a large green apple and a lime into a shaker. 

Add 2oz ginger-infused vodka and shake with ice. 

Strain into a martini glass that's been drizzled with honey

Garnish with a curl of the green-apple peel

The Minerva Hannigan 

Layer 1oz irish cream and 1oz Aftershock in a glass and a one-bite shortbread cookie as a chaser. Blue and white, just a little sweet, and perfectly capable of knocking you for a loop if you're not careful.

The Dakota Oxendine

1/2oz each of: raspberry vodka, light rum, tequila, gin, triplesec

1oz each of: sour mix, cranberry juice

1/4 tsp edible silver glitter

Mix and pour into a highball glass over ice cubes made with tonic water. Pink and sparkly in regular light; a black light should make the ice cubes glow blue and turn it just a little purple. Stir frequently to make the colors swirl and the glitter dance.

By the time you finish this, you'll at least feel like you're astral projecting...

The Astral Dream Bridge (for Belladonna)

2oz orange vodka

1/2oz elderflower liquor

1oz lime juice

1oz honey or agave nectar. 

Shake with ice, then strain into a martini glass. Add gold or silver luster dust (whichever would show up better) and stir. 

Then take 1oz creme du violette and carefully pour it down the side of the glass so it sinks to the bottom. The violet should slowly meld with the glittery gold on top.

Lee

On a plate, shapes:

Cut lemons in half and scoop out the insides. Mix 1 cup lemonade, 2 packages strawberry gelatin, and 1 cup vanilla vodka and pour into the lemon halves. Allow to set, then cut into wedges. Serve 1 wedge.

A small bowl (about the size of the lemon halves) half-filled with tapioca pearls and a 50/50 mixture of honeydew juice and Moscato with a splash of lemon juice.

Stemless Martini glass with: 1oz vodka, 1oz blue curacao, 3oz lemonade, and a splash of 151 on top. Light 151 on fire before serving.

Unnecessarily complicated, weirdly expensive, ultimately confusing, literally on fire, but sweet and somehow a complete, coordinated and interesting... drink? Dish? Thing?

Professor Contreras

Something as academic as leather-patched elbows and antique globes:

1oz port

1/2 oz spiced rum

1 1/2 oz rye whiskey

Mix and pour into a magically chilled glass. Add thin wedges of apple (of course) and lemon peel.

The fact that it is a deep red and slightly thick drink is an unfortunate coincidence.

Bea

Run a lemon wedge along the edge of a glass and then rim it with ginger-sugar (put a 1 to 4 ratio of candied ginger and sugar in a food processor until small enough)

Pour 2 oz Vernors (or ginger ale) and 6oz non-alcoholic pear cider over ice in the glass, then add a pinch of nutmeg and stir gently with a cinnamon stick.

Looks sweet, tastes complex, and may have a bite.

BirdDad's Late Night Draft, for when 'Milo, No' becomes 'oh god it's 2AM did you think I wouldn't say 'Milo No'?'

Take 1 cup very strong coffee.

Add 2 lumps brown sugar and cream to taste

Mix in 2 oz dark rum
