- mannykannot 9y agoThere is a serious point here - as someone more familiar with the alcoholic beverage of the company's original name than its wholesome products, I think we need some blockchain-themed cocktails for the holidays (it's probably been done... does anyone have recipes?)
- acdanger 9y agoSomething with a lot of fizz that leaves you with a bitter aftertaste and a bad hangover? Looks like there's already a bitcoin cocktail floating about: http://www.barmeister.com/drinks/recipe/7511/?o=by_date http://www.barmeister.com/drinks/recipe/7511/?o=by_date
- ceejayoz 9y agoCoke and Mentos, resulting in a briefly frothy mixture followed by a mostly empty glass.
- mizzao 9y agoThat only works with diet coke.
- SAI_Peregrinus 9y agoIt works with any carbonated drink, diet coke just happens to be the frothiest of the ones tested.
- toomanybeersies 9y agoCheap gin, soda water, and a salt rim. Depth charge a shot of Jagermeister for extra effect if the price of bitcoin has ended on a negative that day.

- lazerpants 9y agoThe Satoshi Nakamoto Stir Japanese whiskey (2 oz), dry vermouth (1 oz), absinthe (teaspoon), and Peychaud's bitters (2 shakes) well with cracked ice, then strain into a chilled cocktail glass. Optional: micropipette the drink into 100,000,000 smaller drinks.

- ravitation 9y agoAnd for every day of December you use 10% more alcohol, until on New Years you don't use any.
- maxerickson 9y agoBuy a fifth of your favorite liquor. Give it to someone you've never met. Enjoy.
- stordoff 9y agoA decent beer that's been left out a little too long - solid fundamentals that haven't necessarily achieved quite what you want, and may be on the verge of going bad at any moment. Add bitters to taste. (Not really a cocktail, but oh well :p).
- dfrey 9y ago1. Use a freezer to make a tray of ice cubes 2. Use a kettle to boil water 3. Pour the boiling water over the ice and enjoy lukewarm water that required an excess of power to create.

- elmar 9y agoWill Bitcoin be remembered as the Netscape of the CryptoCurrency Bubble? The question is who is going to be the Chrome Browser and Firefox?
- pmlnr 9y agoWait, that's not how it was. You left IE6 out, which is significant. If BTC is Netscape, I'd say ETH is IE6 and it will stay for a while. Chrome and FF is not even on the horizon.
