LOL! Well, I am sure he would take this as a compliment.

I think you guys should invent a Bob McCue by proxy alcoholic drink. A smooth, velvety, tall, sultry drink.

Yes! And the "dressing" could be two melon balls on a toothpick!

With prosciutto of course.

Canadian Goose as the base?

I looove Bob McCue. I went to ExMoConf last year just to see him. I mean, not in a sexual way but he's helped me out a lot and his writings are very helpful to me. I adore him.

So anyway, Bob McCue is my Hot Canadian Bacon and I've been touched by his 'sizzle'.

(Say this next part like Mary Catherine Gallagher)

Sometimes.. I just want to rub his head, and I just want rub his head like this (pantomimes vigorously rubbing Bob McCues head) and then sometimes I just want to go like THIS (pantomimes face plant into cleavage, moving poor captive Bob McCue back and forth.)

LOL!!

Somewhere a Canadians ears, and probably his face is burning.

Ok. So I can't believe I just spent 15 minutes doing this, but I sifted through hundreds of drinks looking for anything that sounded remotely like Bob. I do this only because I would consider it the height of amusement to offer Bob a McCue by Proxy drink the next time I meet up with him.

(dare I add that I sincerely hope these drink creators were in a serious stage of intoxication to make up names like alligator sperm, kinky orgasm, and modified duck fart for their drinks, holy crap)

When I think of Bob, I think of a more rich, sophisticated liqueur like a scotch or a rum. He's also quite earthy and likes beers so that is an option. Unfortunately, very few of these mixed drinks with those at the base would be remotely compatible with melons, lol. So here are a couple of options, help me out here:

Option 1:

2 oz Canadian whisky
1 tsp triple sec
1 dash Angostura® bitters
1 dash fresh lemon juice

(this one has an appropriate base, but may be too citrussy to be Bob)

Option 2:

1 oz Midori® melon liqueur
1 oz dark rum
1 1/2 oz cranberry juice
3/4 oz orange juice

(I bet this one would be excellent with prosciutto, Mish)

Option 3:

1 1/2 oz Absolut® Mandrin vodka
fill with pineapple juice
1 splash cranberry juice

Option 4:

1 shot amaretto almond liqueur
1 shot Malibu® coconut rum
1 shot Bacardi® Limon rum
1 oz pineapple juice
1 oz orange juice
1 dash grenadine syrup

(I chose this option only because it had the richness of almond and coconut and sounded creamy)

What do you think? Anyone up for a taste test?

psssst to Infymus. Don't snitch to Bob!

1 1/2 oz Absolut® Mandrin vodka
fill with pineapple juice
1 splash cranberry juice

Now that sounds fantastic, although I prefer Grey Goose to Absolut (at three times the cost, it should be).

psssst to Infymus. Don't snitch to Bob!

Ring...
Bob: Yes?
Infy: Did you know that someone wants to rub your face in her bosom?
Infy: Bob?

That's the one that sounded best to me as well. I'm not a big drinker, but I much prefer vodka to scotch and rum (I had some Johnny Walker Blue the last time I was in Chicago and it burned the heck out of my throat and I swear my tongue went numb.)

Infy: Yes, Bob. Something about wanting to enfold you within the shadow of the everlasting hills.

You can enfold me in the shadow of your everlasting hills anytime. ;-)

Hmmm...I vote for #2, the midori and run combo, but could be easily persuaded to both sample all and/or agree with everyone (after sampling all).

Either way, something melon related must be brought close to the drinker's face for the maxium proxy effect.
