It's Nine o' Clock on a Friday!~ (Housewarming Open Mingle Post)
What: Dolly's Housewarming Party/ The Lily Pad Bar Opening
Where: The Middle Tier Housing for Lum Berry Guild, more specifically, The Lily Pad located upstairs in Dolly's new home.
When: June 12th
Warnings: Alcohol, potential drunkenness, and possible bar fight Pokemon Style.
Sing us a Song, You're the Piano Man~!
The bar is set up to the nines and nicely organized for its maiden voyage for the housewarming, ready to entertain others upon coming inside. The counter is painted delicately to resemble a lily pond, soft blues, creamy pinks, soft whites, and mossy greens adorn the surface lovingly. On the counter are felt coasters made to look like the namesake, lily pads. Some have the lilies on them, others have a smiling little frog, and then there are few that have a little gold ball stitched on. If you're from earth and familiar with the Frog Prince fairytale, you'll likely pick up on the theme super quickly.
Lining the back of the wall of the bar are bottles of the homemade alcohol as well as decorative potion bottles that have the precautionary 'do not drink' on them. It's set up as a nice lounging style where folks can lay on the floor with the giant domino shaped pillows while playing boardgames with the other guests. The games available are the Clue boardgame, A homemade dart board with sharpened pebbles for the darts, The card game of Potions and Poisons with game instructions, A small game board of chess, and a stacking logs game of some kind to choose from. Perhaps one day, Dolly will have an actual set of dominos to offer to play with. In the corner of the room is Ribombee, taking a very well needed break from work to have a drink. Best not to disturb him, the poor mon needs some space during these stressful times.
Behind the counter, Dolly is merrily tending to mixing drinks and serving her guests for the housewarming party with Shuckle on the counter looking pretty cozy with their woven blanket on their shell. Elsewhere, it would appear Dolly had invited her neighbors over to get to know them better, Maushold and the ever loathsome Togepi. The two bigger Maushold are very social, gentle voices much like Mister Rodger in demeanor while keeping the smaller ones close by as they sip cherry cola. Togepi, the middle age Pokemon that unfortunately never grew out of his baby face, is most certainly the most unwelcome and unwholesome guest imaginable. Togepi hasn't even had any alcohol in his body yet, he doesn't have alcohol as an excuse at all for the behavior. Dolly is definitely having major regrets ever inviting over her dread neighbor Togepi at the moment.
On the counter are two menus of the drinks to pick from, one being the cocktails while the other is soda for those that cannot have alcohol.
Cocktail Menu
Berry Wines Available (Made by Cedric and Mayaka): Cheri, Leppa, Sitrus, Aspear, Nomel, Grepa, Oran, and Tanga. Feel free to request to have it mixed with a soda of you choice to make it into a wine cooler.
Better Bee-lieve it!: A nice blend of lemonade, elderflower liquor, and mead, topped with a lightly salted honeycomb.
Imploded Billionaires: The adult version of a cherry cola! Rum mixed with cola with some cherry syrup, garnished with homemade cherry mash candies that were dipped with a mini skewer still in there. Optionally can be pigmented black since it's a known fact billionaires have crude oil coursing through their veins.
Vesper: Recipe provided by Eleanor! A timeless classic cocktail made of gin, vodka, and Kina Lillet served with a lemon zest curl inside.
Mai-Tai: Recipe Provided by Eleanor! The perfect beach drink to enjoy the summer with, made with rum, curaçao, orgeat syrup made with the leftover almonds from Cedric and Mayaka with a splash of lime juice. Comes with a little grilled pineapple slice garnish.
Mint Julep: A refreshing classic! Made with chopped mint brought by Cedric and Mayaka, bourbon, sugar, and a splash of water over on crushed ice.
Toasted Almond: A cozy comfort drink of amaretto, coffee liqueur, and heavy cream. You can request a scoop of moo moo milk ice cream to top it with. The amaretto was made by Cedric and Mayaka while the coffee liqueur was made by Siffrin and Cater.
Amaretto Sour: A classic blend of amaretto and sour mix, garnished with a lemon twist in a Chansey egg white foam. The amaretto was made by Cedric and Mayaka.
Nukashine: Designed lovingly by our very own Perrin and given Thundershocks by Bigby Wolf! This drink has a good spicy kick.
Martini: Available in Dirty, Perfect, Dry, and Wet.
Lemon Cake: Sweet, but punches back hard! A mix of limoncello and vanilla bean vodka with a sprinkle rim. The limoncello was created by Aelita and Sonya!
Hard Fruit Cider: A curiously strong blend of mixed fruits that sure to bring a refreshing bite with every sip! This lovely blend was brought to use by Siffrin and Cater.
Dandelion Wine: This is literally summer in a glass with the bright, sweet floral notes of dandelion. This delightful blend was made by Siffrin and Cater.
The Bay Old Fashioned: An old fashioned with a massive punch! Gently muddled sugar and water combined with smooth whiskey followed by a splash of Revival Herb bitters, this is a drink you won't be forgetting any time soon. It's delicately garnished with a twist of orange rind and a cherry. The Revival Herb bitters was made by Siffrin and Cater.
Manhattan Bay: A classic with a Bottlecap Bay twist! Made with Whiskey, a splash of dandelion wine, and the Revival Herb bitters garnished with a cherry. It is a lot stronger than the average Manhattan, featuring two alcohols made by Siffrin and Cater!
Soda Menu
((Sodas available (Made by Perrin and Eleanor) : Nuka Cola, Sunset Sarsaparilla, and Lemon Lime Soda ))
Cherry Cola: The classic! This too comes with the skewer of the cherry mash candies.
Shirley Temple: Recipe Provided by Eleanor! A classic kids cocktail of a lemon-lime soda mixed with some cherry syrup. Can be turned into a float upon request!
Soda Float: Your pick of the soda with a scoop of moo-moo milk ice cream on top.
Minty Lemonade: A fun lemonade with freshly chopped mint leaves provided by Cedric and Mayaka. You may request it to have some blueberry tea to be poured in for the most refreshing half and half out there!
Sundae: Okay, so not a drink per se, but it's still delicious! Two scoops of the moo moo milk ice cream topped with melted chocolate, whipped cream, and your choice of a regular cherry or cherry mash candies.
Iced Tea: Pick from your choice of Peppermint, Orange Spice, Chocolate Hazelnut (already sweetened), Raspberry, Blueberry, Peach, Hojicha, or London Fog. It can be sweetened upon request!
Potion Mixture: Pick three non alcoholic drinks and have them mixed together to produce your very own custom drink!
With the menu looked over and drinks picked, it's truly a good time to go mingle with your fellow guests, play some games, or chat with Dolly as she runs the bar. Let's just hope that all the bar gets is a rowdy and drunken tavern song instead of a bar fight. Then again, the Fates are very much a hideous lot with a humor to match....
((OOC: I got permission from the Mods to have Ribombee in the background :'> He's just here to have a small break from work to enjoy a drink.))
