THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
Editor's Note
When I was in grade school, my cousin and I used to make disgusting concoctions and then try to get my neighbor girl to try them. We would mix such
household goodies as honey, grape juice, hot sauce, cinnamon and mustard with more 'exotic ingredients such as sand. To top it off we would freeze dead flies in ice cube trays. Then we would call my neighbor to come over and hand her the dripping slop when we tried not to let our giggles escape. I can't remember a single time my neighbor did more than sniff her carefully created drink, shove it back in our faces and run home.
Apparently I was not the only one fascinated with these four mixtures, and it seems some bartenders and drinkers have not given them up. In "Strange Brews" on page eight, writer Chris Brown examines the ingredients and bizarre appeal of these drinks and lets you know where you can find them in Lawrence. We've also listed a few recipes, so drink at your own risk. Hey, you may even find one you'll actually like.
Shot names have always grossed me out anyway the monkey gland, corpse reviver, duck fart, test tube baby, but perhaps the most repulsive is the income tax. And after glancing at what's in the drinks in the article, I can tell you the next time I'm offered a shot. I'll be asking for a list of ingredients.
