Cocktail: The Chicago Razor
By Marc Felion on July 23, 2006
Our Mexi-licious correspondent César Torres brought us this tasty, health-friendly recipe during Gay Games week when he competed with his triathlon team the Chicago Razors. The Razors’ official cocktail is also a good alternative to pies. Seriously. If it’s good enough for Chicago’s premier gay triathletes, it’s good enough for you.
This cocktail keeps you away from simple sugars, which are detrimental to the waistline. It does, however, give you a boost from the caffeine and also gives you the vitamin C and health benefits of cranberry juice without the ever deadly high fructose corn syrup. You can feel yourself getting fit as you drink it.
4 oz. Sugar-free energy drink
4 oz. No-sugar-added cranberry juice
4 oz. Premium vodka
Add ingredients into a mixer with ice, shake and strain into a chilled martini glass. Garnish with fresh berries or an orange rind.

The Porn Star is sweet and sour and fulll of protein. It is best when shaken to full throttle. The egg white adds body and froth to the drink. In Spanish we call it “espuma” or “spumante” in Italian. In English its called “head.” It just explodes with pleasure. Fresh egg whites are bit […]
