MOFO Day #26 True Grub: Jessica's Virgin Strawberry Daiquiri


You don't have to be like King of the Bill and make a waywardly yet hot read headed virgin vampire out of punishment by The Authority. Nope. You can make a virgin drink instead.
Seriously, folks. This ain't complicated. This is a glass of cool, refreshing, and sweet strawberry bliss. Just like Vampire Jessica.


You'll need:
1 can of cold ginger ale
1 heaping cup of frozen strawberries
a blender


Can you guess what you need to do? That's right, put the strawberries in the blender, add the ginger ale and make it slushy. Goes well with Covenly Tacos, which I'll talk about tomorrow.

MOFO Day #10 True Grub: Make Your Own True Blood

This should have been the first entry, really. I'm not always thinking, so please forgive me.
You don't have to be a vampire or a drunk to enjoy this fruity and energizing concoction. If you are the kind that loves to drinky-drink, you could probably add a jigger or two of vodka or a fruity schnapps, but I don't think that's really needed. If you have a spooky glass, that's fine. I hear Pam and Nan have real fancy glasses they like to break out for their vegan friends. Plainer folk just serve it in a mason jar or Yahtzee tumbler.


Make Your Own True Blood

  • 1/4 c. beet juice -(you can use the stuff from the can if you're in a pinch)
  • 1/4 c. cherry flavored POM juice, or any pomegranate based juice
  • 1/2 c. blood orange juice
  • 1/2 c. blueberry iced tea -(any fruity iced tea will work)
  • 1/2 c. club soda, tonic, or seltzer water



Pam's Cosmo
Add 1-2 jiggers of high end vodka.


Nan's Fuzzy Thigh
Add 1 jigger of peach schnapps
Replace tea and club soda with 1c. strawberry Boone's Farm
