The Drunken Moogle: Cave Johnson's Flaming Lemonade

Cave Johnson’s Flaming Lemonade (Portal 2 Cocktail)

Ingredients:
10 oz. lemonade
2 oz. limoncello
1 splash Everclear (or other grain alcohol)
1 grain alcohol-soaked lemon wheel

Directions: Cut a lemon wheel and soak it in grain alcohol while you make the drink. Mix the lemonade and limoncello into a tall glass, then float a splash of grain alcohol on top of the drink. Place the lemon wheel on the rim of the glass and ignite the top. Admire your delicious weapon, then extinguish and drink.

“I’m gonna get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!” -Cave Johnson

Outstanding.

Good News, Everybody!

I'm transitioning over to Tumblr, since it makes following and reblogging much, much easier, so be sure to head over there and check it out! (The Blogger edition of Apocalypse POW! will be put on hiatus for the foreseeable future.)

Apparently, I was not finished posting Portal 2-related things. Here, have some more.

Notes:
¹ I have to admit, it took me a second before I realised how clever this was.
² He sees you.
³ This really only makes sense once you've finished Portal 2.
⁴ This is currently my desktop wallpaper at work.
⁵ Kind of a spoiler, I guess... Though out of context, it's just a great song a la "Still Alive".

I've been playing a ton of Portal 2 lately. I'm nearly finished the single-player campaign and then I'll try tackling the multiplayer, but I have to say - there's so much pure awesomesauce crammed into the single-player story-line that I wish it would never end. Almost anything I say about Portal 2 would be a spoiler, so instead I'll just throw out a bunch of phrases, out-of-context, to express my enthusiasm: Wheatley! Reboot! Cave Johnson! Gel! Potato battery! 1982!

One thing I am able to confidently ruin for everybody is that The National's song recorded for Portal 2, Exile Vilify, is fantastic, and is worked into the game in a fairly non-essential (in that if you miss it, you aren't overlooking anything critical to the game itself) but well-implemented manner. Or you can just stream it below.
