...had invented a drink called the "test tube baby".
I heard about a drink called the "Abortion", which features cherry advokaat. Shudder. Cherry Advokaat which looks all disgusting and blood clottish and curdley just in the bottle, I shudder to think what it'd look like with white spirits.
Research suggests that an 'Abortion' is grenadine, white sambuca and either white creme de cacao or irish cream. This would taste horrendous.
Some cocktail sites list this 'Test Tube Baby' as well, usually listing it as containing amaretto, cream (or irish cream) and vodka (or tequila). That doesn't sound nearly filthy enough, however. There are lots of bizarre variations. One recipe suggests Grand Marnier, Anisette and Irish Cream, and another says Peach Schnapps, Irish Cream and Grenadine, which sounds far more like it. Guh, that would taste so odd.
