Mixology: Pepto-Bismol?

OctoparrotOctoparrot Registered User regular
edited August 2008 in Help / Advice Forum
Anyone think of an alcohol that would be drinkable with pepto-bismol? I would assume a clean vodka would work, and my first thought is that Absinthe might actually go pretty well with it.

Tonight, ingredients will be searched for. May not get results until the weekend, as I would prefer many of the alcohols be ice fucking cold, and due to obligations I shouldn't be throwing up during (assuming the worst). It is suggested I find a camera. This will be done.

Suggestions that will be tried:
Vodka (I have a good distilled vodka so F everclear)
Absinthe
Rumpelminze (not as good as Creme de Menthe?)
Jagermeister
Gin

Suggestions that boil my stomach even thinking about:
Tequila
Irish Cream

    Why would you want to mix Pepto-Bismol with alcohol?

    I'm trying to think of a good reason without shouting something vague and abstract like, Progress!

    Relieve horrible stomach pain and get a buzz at the same time.

    But, conversely, why wouldn't I want to mix them?

    Why in the world would you want to mix Pepto with alcohol, or anything, for that matter?

    If anything, I see a few results on Google mentioning that it's good for easing problems resulting from too much alcohol, not combining with it.

    EDIT:
    But, conversely, why wouldn't I want to mix them?

    While the two don't really interact badly, there's a decent chance drinking the alcohol is just going to make your stomach feel worse, and defeat the purpose of taking the Pepto in the first place.

    Unless you want to spew bodily fluids from every orifice of your being, I'd suggest against it.

    Ever shit and vomit at the same time?

    Neither have I and I sure would want to keep it that way.

    With that said, Tequilla might mask the chalky, wintergreen flavor of Pepto.

    While they're not contraindicated, alcohol tends to upset your stomach.

    Pepto-bismol has a pretty strong, distinct taste, so I would say something relatively tasteless--like vodka or everclear--would be the way to go.

    I would say 'whatever is the cheapest liquor you can find'. Because nothing is going to make this taste anything other than fucking horrendous, so why waste good booze on the project?

    Is this one of those rare H/A situations where the forum rules be damned we just need to tell the OP this is a completely stupid idea?

    Not to mention--if you are seeking to mix alcohol with over-the-counter medicines, I'm guessing you have some sort of problem.

    I'm not planning on slinging 'em back. This is science. You know, like using the tiny plastic cups they give you to rinse with at the dentist. Real professional, like.

    I'm not particularly trying to carefully preserve the delicate flavor of pepto or anything, but vodka's one of the few things I could dig up on the subject.

    The problem isn't preserving it; the problem is that if you have a strongly-flavored mixer, and you mix it with a strongly-flavored liquor, odds are that what you get is going to be strongly-flavored ass.

    Tequila would be the first thing I would recommend not using, personally.

    Okay, creating something called a Gas Chamber with Pepto just seems to be begging for something horrible to happen.

    I'm with Thanatos, I'd try an alcohol with a milder flavor, like vodka or.... hell, vodka's the only thing I could think of that would even be in the realm of vaguely inoffensive.

    I want pictures of this drink. It sounds God-awful, and yet I find myself intrigued (as long as someone who lives nowhere near me is trying it, and therefore I never have to).

    Anyway, let us know how it turns out, and how far you spew.

    My friend dropped a shotglass of pepto into a pint of Guiness.

    We called it a "Pink Chocolate".

    However, the drink was punishment for being a douchebag. The fact that he sorta liked the punishment only confirmed the crime.

    Add a shot and a half of white rum, half shot of simple syrup, a few dashes of lime, garnish with mint and you'd have a Pepto-Bismol Mojito.

    A Pepito, if you will.

    Than's earlier recommendations were probably similar to what I'd recommend: cold, clean, unflavored vodka.

    One of the first things I thought of was Irish Cream. Maybe it would have decent berries & cream taste to it, I thought. But it was also one of the first things I dismissed after realizing how disgustingly rich it would be.

    I like that you called it Mixology, not a lot of people know that term, or use it correctly.

    One thing that might work well is a good dry gin, like Bombay Sapphire. The sort of pine flavor from the juniper berries in the gin might mix well with the pseudo-minty flavor of the pepto.

    I'm tempted to go out and buy some Pepto-Bismol just so I can give some other suggestions.

    I'm usually pretty good at this, but I've never actually tasted the stuff before, so it's hard for me to judge.

    pepto is a minty flavor so try some drinks that already have mint sub out the mint for the pepto.

    The pepto julep, Ice bourbon dash of pepto
    The pepito (see earlier suggestion)
    The Pink tinsel christmas tree, Gin, pepto, rumplemints, (this should only be taken as a shot)
    The pink moose, (the shot limp moose my name sake is tequila and bailys, The pink moose would sub out the bailys for the pepto.

    Also You could use the pepto in lieu of genadine, There are dozens of grenadine drinks so the only limit would be your imagination.

    Also try layering The pepto bailys and 151 into a pink b-52.

    The website gives a lot of warnings about bleeding conditions and being on anti-coagulants contraindicating taking Pepto, so, like...don't bleed if you're having boozy Pepto.

    What about Goldschlager? Might...uh, mix all right with the wintergreen?

    Will any of this actually mix? Seems like the consistency of the liquids will cause a problem. And please, update us.

    It seems like the texture of Pepto would be a limiting factor. Strawberry Yoohoo is similar, and would likely be easier to mix.

    In any case, this thread is awesome. Carry on.

    I've ordered drinks with much worse mixers at a bar.

    Examples: A-1 Steak Sauce and mayonnaise.
