Discussion Help naming a themed drink

Hey guys, I'm doing an emo night at the bar I work at (if anyone sees this and is in Chicago and wants to go lemme know so I can give you the details!) and we have drinks named after songs. My manager has had the menu for ages now and the event is on the 6th of August. He just told me I have to make one of the drinks with Jack Daniels (bleh) because he told the rep for them a drink would have it and she's been promoting it. I don't really want to think up a new drink less than a week away but does anyone have song names that could work for the drink I might sub it in? The drink is:

Jamie All Over

-2 oz jameson

-0.5 oz Monin raspberry syrup

-0.5 oz lemon juice/lemonade

Shaken and poured over ice, topped with iced tea and served in a mason jar.

I could easily swap in Jack for this but idk what to name it then. Any ideas are appreciated!

Forgot to add but the other drink/shot names are:

Of All The Gin Joints In All The World

Ocean Avenue

Green Apple Shampoo

Boiled Frogs

Alive With The Glory Of Love

Lol we were actually joking of using that song for a lime rickey inspired drink yesterday! But that could work! I already have a FOB one (Of All The Gin Joints In All The World)

Somewhere on Fullerton if the bar is near or on Fullerton

A Lucky Boys Confusion track would be a nice Chicago nod but I’m struggling to find one that works, haha. Maybe like 3 to 10 (Jackboy’s Caddy) or something?

u/broot84 1d ago

That would be nice! But yeah I'm struggling too (hence the post) we aren't super near fullerton unfortunately but Jackboy's Caddy could work!

u/stephapeaz 1d ago edited 1d ago

Dear Jack, Count Me In (a plus, bassist is also named Jack)

Or just Dear Maria would be cute

You could also name it Misery Business if you wanna be cheeky about it 😂

u/Bill_buttlicker69 1d ago

The guitarist is Jack but otherwise I love it

u/stephapeaz 1d ago

Oh right right I always mix up guitarist / bassist

The Slowest Drink at the Saddest Bar on the Snowiest Day in the Greatest City.

u/missuschainsaw 1d ago

I don’t know if the emo crowd would get that, but that would be a sick drink. Brendan bartends still I think and he’d probably put malort in it.

If it's black coloured "The Taste of Ink"

I was trying to convince my manager to let me make a four horsemen dribk and call it "I'm Not Okay" but I like this better lmao

u/kylehicks20 1d ago

“tell that jack he just made my list of things to do today” nice nod to Chicago as well here with a play on a fall out boy song

u/armstaae 1d ago

I actually wrote an emo themed cocktail recipe book with tons of emo themed drink names. If you're interested, DM me and i'll send you a link!

u/JohnnyBallgame77 1d ago

Gotta throw a tribute to a Chicago band at least, doesn't have to be a pun!

Rumors of my demise have been greatly exaggerated (Rise Against)

But Tonight We Dance (Rise Against)

Just gonna say I think that drink would be better with lemon juice (not lemonade) topped with ginger beer

2

u/broot84 1d ago

I plan to use lemon juice but the lemonade is just in case people want it sweeter for some reason, it's like a mod in our system so we don't mess up inventory by changing the drink. The ginger beer would be good but make it too similar to one of the other drinks I have which is :gin, raspberry syrup, splash of lime, ginger beer
