Lovecraftian Beverage Menu
Saturday, November 7, 2009
Aaron Vanek has re-posted the contents of a Lovecraftian cocktail menu offered at last month's H.P. Lovecraft Film Festival. While the twelve drinks listed aren't quite full recipes, they contain enough information on ingredients for adventurous Lovecraftians to re-create them. Among these frightful brews, you'll find gut bombs like "Sweet Oblivion, "The Twisted Tentacle," "Starry Wisdom Blood Orange Cosmo," and even "Grand Ligotti." The creation of Lovecraftian beverages is actually ironic, given H.P. Lovecraft's famously puritanical attitude toward alcohol. But Lovecraft fans have never really let the Old Gent's long buried attitudes ruin the fun that might be had with his ideas and monstrosities.
