Absolut Los Angeles: flavor of the city?
FRANCE HAS given the world Burgundy and Champagne. New York's contributions include the Manhattan and the Long Island iced tea. Even the tiny Caribbean island of Curaçao has placed a bright blue bottle in the pantheon of potent potables.
And Los Angeles? How about a vodka flavored with pomegranate, blueberry, acerola cherry and açai berry? That's the flavor profile of our fair city according to Swedish brand Absolut, which has ginned up 25,000 cases of a limited-run vodka called Absolut Los Angeles that started trickling out to bars and stores in late July.
... . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
The SigAlert: Mix 1 part Absolut Los Angeles to 2 parts pineapple juice and wait at least 30 minutes before drinking.
The Canyon Brush Fire: In a 2-ounce shot glass, float 1 ounce of Bacardi 151 rum on top of 1 ounce of Absolut Los Angeles. Light with a spark from a carelessly discarded cigarette, snuff flames with a $100 bill. Sip gingerly.
The Plastic Surgeon: Add 1 1/2 ounces Absolut Los Angeles to 2 ounces absinthe in a highball glass filled with cracked ice. Fill with lime-flavored Perrier and stir. Drink until your face feels as if it's melting.
But has the Swedish vodka maker truly captured the flavor of the city? Samuel summed it up best: "A pessimist would say it's just like Los Angeles: ugly on its own but with the right lighting, the right makeup and the right touch, it comes out looking great."
GIMME THAT VODKA!!!
LIGHTS, CAMERA, VODKA
Edison had his lightbulb, Ford had his Model T, and Jan Vinzenz Krause has his spray-on condom. Inspired by the mechanics of a drive-through car wash, the German sexual-health educator designed a custom-fitting male contraceptive using liquid latex and some materials from a hardware store. "I felt a little like MacGyver," he says of building the contraption.
"Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes.
Art is knowing which ones to keep. "
