    Default Planned, perhaps coming soon: The Cocktail Computer

    The planned Cocktail Computer contains over 100 recipes; the punch system filters based on your tastes and available ingredients. Plus, you don't need WiFi to make this lo-fi gadget work its magic.

    It's currently on . I gave $25 because for me the idea is fantastic.

    Full report:

    R2D2 has already been there and done that on Jabba The Huts sail barge IIRC...it didn't work out so well for the drinkers.
    The fact that there's a highway to hell and a stairway to heaven says a lot about the anticipated traffic flow.

    I'm sure there would be several smartphone apps out there to do the same thing, but the card file system would be fun to use.

    [Edit: and I can see it being a popular gift for those people "who have everything".]

    Jim Beam ( since 2014 owned by Japanese spirit producer Suntory ), IMO is John Doe's whiskey. Who drinks already this swill?

    For the friends of Jim Beam:

    If you ask Fred Noe, Jim Beam master distiller, how to drink a bourbon properly, his answer is simple: "Any damn way you please."
    Jim Beam say only these receipes one needs - as found on their German website:

    1. Red Stag GINGER & LIME

      1. 3cl Red Stag by Jim Beam
      2. 4 cl Ginger Ale
      3. Lime slice

    2. JIM BEAM HONEY & GINGER ALE

      1. 2 cl Jim Beam Honey
      2. 2 cl Ginger Ale
      3. piece of lemon
      4. 1 dash bitters (optional)

    3. JIM BEAM LIME SPLASH

      1. 4 cl Jim Beam Bourbon
      2. 2 cl lime juice

    4. JIM BEAM APPLE & TONIC

      1. 1 part Jim Beam Apple
      2. 3 parts tonic water
      3. ice cubes
      4. Lemon or apple slices



    Should be simple to punch the Cocktail Computer's corresponding Hollerith cards

    Yeah! But, who mixes goon with anything, they just drink it straight and rarely even use a glass! As for whiskey, if it ain't Scotch or a close relative (Irish) it ain't whiskey!
    I'm out of my mind, but feel free to leave a message...

    LOL, you mean a "Granny" had to get pissed before she'd let you fvck her, what the hell did the girls your own age have to take before they let you??? Cyanide perhaps (Zyklon B to be precise)?

    These drink computers have been around for a while, they are flogging them on one of the shopping channels i believe.
