We need to invent a cocktail called a screenshot. There's already one called a snapshot (sambuca and Kahlúa), but I think it should be a completely different drink.

Sweet vermouth and vodka. Chilled and neat

Edit: Screenshot JPEG version - add crushed ice

Lol I totally made it up on the spot. My thought process being:

  • It at least has to not taste awful
  • Vermouth is a fortified wine and vodka is a common fortifier
  • Screenshots are digital images of digital imagery

That one actually sounds pretty good!
I need to try it, thanks!

Edit: although I was more going in the direction of wormwood/absinthe with vodka - although I've tried that mix and it tastes like...I don't remember

I'd swap the sambuca for 50/50 Galliano and vodka (to match the proof), and keep the Kahlua. When you're riffing close enough to keep part of the name, you should keep part of the drink.

Galliano is herbal and sharp like anissettes, but just different because of the herbs used, including significant vanilla notes, which should go with the Kahlua
