Fallout Stimpak Shot | How to Drink
With the disappointing release of Fallout 76 I'm feeling nostalgic for the original, and creating an original cocktail to go with it.
Come on down to Vault HTD for a Stimpak Shot!
**********************************
I love Fallout, I've lost an insanely high number of hours to the original two games that came out in the 90's. I thought Fallout 3 was just OK, and Fallout New Vegas was the closest thing I was ever going to get to a proper release of the Van Buren Project (More on that in the video). At any rate, Fallout has finally gone on-line with the release of Fallout 76 and... well frankly I'm still hooked on the first two. So I'm here reminiscing about the "Good-Old-Days" and shaking up an original cocktail to celebrate my love of Fallout: The Stimpak Shot. Which is a twist in itself, because this is the first time I've made a "shooter" on the series. I won't go into the how and why I came up with this recipe in the description, I dive pretty deep on that in the video, but here's the recipe:
Fallout Stimpak Shot
1 oz. or 30 ml. Lemon Juice
1 oz. or 30 ml. Ginger Syrup
1 oz. or 30 ml. Vodka
.25 oz. or 8 ml. Suze
The Suze is the smallest ingredient of the set here, but it's totally vital. Don't try to skip it.

This is the first time I've done a video-game inspired drink, but I've been wanting to for a long time. As I mentioned in the video, I'd love to know what games you'd like to see me create drinks from, let me know in the comments.
And are you a Fallout fan? Have you been lurking in the forums of No Mutants Allowed for years and years like I have? Are you playing Fallout 76? Is it better than I think it is? Worse? Let me know!
