Your friend is turning 21 years old ? Looking for a drink to knock your guests out cold ?
Look no further ! This bright blue colored cocktail called ” AMF ” will do the trick.
" AMF "
When
did this drink become popular ?
As far as we know, this popular mix came to life back in the 1980s and it is also a variant of the ” Long Island Iced Tea ” which is also made of Rum, Gin, Vodka & Tequila but with the AMF, Blue Curacao is used instead of Triple Sec & 7-up instead of Cola.
If some of you don’t know, AMF refers to ” Adios Mother… ” you get the rest of the word. Basically that’s what you say to someone after having them drink such a strong cocktail.
Without further ado let’s dive into how we made it !

15 ml ( 0.5 oz ) White Rum
15 ml ( 0.5 oz ) Tequila
15 ml ( 0.5 oz ) Gin
15 ml ( 0.5 oz ) Blue Curacao
Half Lemon Squeezed
30 ml ( 1 oz ) Simple Syrup

What’s the difference between Cocktails and Mixed Drinks ?
By definition, a mixed drink is any latter that is composed of at least two ingredients that are combined together to form the drink.
While a cocktail traditionally used to indicate a drinks that is composed of liquors, sweeteners, bitters and water ( or diluted ice )
Nowadays a cocktail’s definition is much broader as most drinks will be considered cocktails even though they might not contain bitters or sweeteners.
TLDR : a cocktail is a mixed drink but not every mixed drink is a cocktail. It depends on the quantity and variety of ingredients inside it
Don't forget to let us know how big of a headache did the AMF cocktail cause you or your friends !
