Slip
If you’re in the mood for a tasty little cocktail with a touch of the Star Trek about it, you need look no further than the Japanese Slipper.

It’s equal parts Cointreau, Midori and freshly squeezed lemon juice, served over an ice cube. The flavours are spectacular; tangy and spiky, and far more subtle than you’d think the individual ingredients could be. But the best part is the colour – a shade of iridescent green that wouldn’t look out of place in Captain Kirk’s cocktail cabinet. It’s the bottle you’d go for when your most shameful nerd fantasies came to life:
“Well hello, green-skinned Orion slave girl, I was just having a Blandwagian Ale… care to join me? Hmmm, good, isn’t it. What? Why yes, it is warm in here…”

may seem like a random question but do you still have your scooter and are you still loving it? would you buy it again?
cheers
I made this for my Supermodel Wife, although I added a splash of lemon-lime soda to accomodate her taste. It was a big hit. Cheers!
