Tequila Slammer College Party

Tequila Slammer College Party
Posted on May 20, 2021 March 24, 2022
Graduation season is often a great time for graduating students and their families to celebrate a terrific achievement. We wanted to honor the 2021 graduation class with a look at some of the top celebratory cocktails for graduation festivities (and tailgates!) from the SEC, Big12, Big10 and ACC. We encourage you to celebrate responsibly, but enjoy our list of college town themed cocktails!
While Gallette’s, the famous college bar near the University of Alabama, hasn’t released their fan-favorite recipe for their Yellowhammer cocktail , you can try and find your own recipe! This cocktail is so popular for home game tailgates that the restaurant sells anywhere between 4,000-5,000 a game.
Excited to try out the recipe? All you need is some vodka, rum, Amaretto, orange juice, and pineapple juice. You can mix these all together and serve over a cup of ice for your own delicious spin on the Alabama classic cocktail.
Alright, next up is the University of Texas. Now, you may be thinking about how to make a blended drink … we got you covered. Bring a blender or a portable blender and plug it into your car’s air conditioner adaptor! Your watch parties will never be the same, thanks to this super-easy twist on the Texas Margarita. Want to make a batch for your graduation party or at your next tailgate? The Hook ‘Em Horns Margarita is a jalapeño-infused drink brings all the heat and flavor you’ll need!
Eager to try it out? Grab some limeade, tequila, beer, and jalapeno, and pour it all in a blender with some ice. You can even wet the rim of the glasses and top it off with some sea salt. You won’t regret the Texas heat!
Mizzou time! Old Missouri” Spiked Root Beer is a favorite cocktail for Missouri Tigers fans! If you’re feeling extra, why not add some whipped cream on top?! Totally not needed, but definitely encouraged! Sing Mizzou’s alma mater and raise a glass before kickoff. It’s good luck. Okay maybe not… but it’s still delicious.
Want the recipe? Just have about 2 ounces of rum, plenty of root beer, and a handful of ice. Pour some root beer in a glass, add the ice and spike it with some rum… And of course, don’t forget the whipped cream for an extra touch!
What’s The Mighty Duck you might ask? Well, you can celebrate and cheer on your favorite Ducks with this pear spritzer! Between the famous University of Oregon school colors and the state fruit, this cocktail is as festive as it gets for any Duck celebration or tailgate.
For an easy tailgate recipe, combine vodka and lemonade in a glass filled with ice. You can even get pear-flavored vodka if you want! Top with a small splash of club soda. Then, garnish the delicious drink with pear.
Alright, alright… we know that Swamp Juice is a great competition, but the investors of Gatorade deserve a Gatorade cocktail! With only five simple ingredients, this recipe is a must-have for any UF celebration or tailgate.
Eager to give this Gatorade Margarita a try? Just grab some lime juice, lots of Gatorade, tequila, a handful of ice, and some salt. Now, with the Gatorade and while in Gainesville, you gotta have the orange or blue… no other options!
Georgians and Bulldawg fans KNOW how to make REAL Sweet Tea, and on a blazing game day or graduation event in May, there’s no better way to stay cool. From classic lemon slices in the tea to oranges for more of a tropical flavor, you can add lots of different options to the mix.
To prepare a Georgia Spiked Sweet Tea cocktail, you need a classic recipe. Start by bringing the water to a boil in a pot. Add tea bags and allow the tea to steep. While the tea is still hot, but off the burner, add the granulated sugar until it’s dissolved. Let the tea cool in a fridge and prepare your lemon slices. Once your sweet tea is done, the real fun starts!
All you have to do is add some bourbon to a large cup of iced sweet tea and add some more lemon slices if you want! For some easy tailgate access, combine all ingredients in a large pitcher, stir and serve.
Get ready for a rowdy “War Eagle” rallying cry before kickoff with this rum-infused drink. You can mix a batch of OJ and rum beforehand, then top everyone’s glasses with Sprite before serving for a quick and easy cocktail.
The War Eagle Rum Punch is really to make. Pour about four ounces of sprite, six ounces of orange juice, and four ounces of rum over ice. That’s all you need to enjoy any Auburn celebration – including game days in the Fall!
Heading back to the Big10, the University of Michigan is home to the Big Blue Spritzer . Adding a splash of Blue Curacao gives this fizzy spritzer its subtle color, but you can amp up the color by opting for a mix of half-Sprite, half-blue Gatorade, or Powerade.
To make this delicious cocktail, all you need is 2 ounces of Blue Curacao, 2 ounces of rum, 10 ounces of Sprite, and you can add some Gatorade too if you want that extra color!
No one does a “white game” better than Penn State! So, a go-to cocktail for a Penn tailgate would have to be a classic Negroni or Tigah Shark . A traditional Negroni is equal parts gin, sweet vermouth and Campari. But, to make it a bit lighter for a tailgate, we got your back!
You can either add 1 ounce of Gin, 1 ounce of Suze, and one ounce of Lillet blanc to a glass over ice, or you can go a bit lighter! You can mix 1.5 Gin, 0.75 Suze, and 0.75 Lillet instead for a lighter option. Either way, this drink will have you hype and ready for game day!
Last but not least, the Hokies deserve a special cocktail too! Anyone that has ever been to Blacksburg in the Fall and winter, with the dazzling grey buildings only matched by grey overcast skies can see why people often confuse a Hokie for a bird of paradise. The Jungle Bird also happens to be a maroonish color to match the spirit of the Hokies!
To make this amazing recipe during graduation season, all you need is some Black Strap Rum, Pineapple Juice, Campari, Lime juice, and simple Syrup. Combine all the ingredients with some ice and your tailgate just got a whole lot more fun!
So, what’s your favorite CW drink on the menu? Between all the CW destinations, I’m sure there’s a cocktail out there for you to choose from. Visit collegeweekends.com for more information!

A growing number of young women are posting images of their debauchery online.
LONDON, February 19, 2008 -- When is it time to say no to the next tequila slammer?
How about this? "You've already had a couple of bottles of Chardonnay over dinner, your make-up is smeared all over your face" (#18).
Or this? "You've become convinced that dancing with your arms overhead, shaking your ass, and yelling WOO HOO is truly the sexiest dance move EVER" (#3).
Well, this is advice from a (tongue-in-cheek) list of "30 reasons girls should call it a night," a very popular Facebook group with almost 180,000 members.
Here viewers can find 5,000 photos of girls in states of drunken debauchery: vomiting, inadvertently flashing their underwear, passed out in a bush, or answering a call of nature — outside.
It appears that drunken antics are no longer a source of acute embarrassment for girls; in fact boasting to the world on social networking sites is a way to gain social standing among one's peers.
However, there are double standards involved when you fall on the wrong side of the gender divide, as group moderator Jasmine Kalimullah, a communications major at SUNY College at Oneonta, explained to ABC News.
"I don't know why it is acceptable for guys to drink and not females," she said. "Possibly because boys have always been expected to be mischievous, so when they drink and act out, they are just boys being boys. Females, on the other hand, are supposed to be dainty and ladylike.
"Is it changing?" she asked. "I really don't know, I hope it is changing. I think it's unfair to have a double standard."
However, so commonplace are drunken girls that the Oxford English Dictionary found it necessary in 2001 to include the newly coined noun "ladette", which describes a "boisterous, heavy-drinking young woman; a young woman with a lifestyle that is more characteristic of that of some young men, usually involving heavy drinking and boisterous behavior."
Amanda Simpson, from the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs, told the "Stop making fools of yourselves!" discussion group that she has no problem with those drinking to excess, but that she does take issue with advertising one's drunken stupidity.
"I drink, I party, I live it up," Simpson wrote in a post to the group. "I do NOT, however, take photos of myself in drunken, compromising positions and then plaster them on public internet forums where any %*$?!^% off the street may see them, including, but not limited to: Parents, Bosses, Potential employers, grad school or college admissions staff, Internship directors."
But many photos on the site are accompanied by full names and the colleges they attend, showing a blatant disregard for the fact that potential employers could be viewing their drunken exploits.
A study by the networking firm Viadeo recently found that one in five employers now uses social networking Web sites, such as Facebook and MySpace, to research information on job candidates and to view how they project themselves. Almost two thirds said their recruitment decisions were influenced by the contents of an individual's profile, while a quarter said that they had changed their mind and decided not to hire someone because of what they found online.
Graduates at Yale University are being warned that keeping what may be considered a "cool" profile on Facebook could cost you your next job. Philip Jones, director of Yale's undergraduate career services, told ABC News that he advises graduates to clean up their profiles. "We've seen the results of not doing it, and shared our war stories with students," he said.
Although it may seem to some like good clean fun, many doctors are far from convinced of any merits to the site. They believe it is making fun of a very real problem facing not only college girls but women or men of any age.
"Brain damage, trauma injuries and the increased risk of infection by sexually transmitted diseases are long-term consequences of binge drinking," Dr. Fulton T. Crews, professor of pharmacology and psychiatry at the University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill, told ABC News. "Education on responsible drinking and healthy life habits are important to help young individuals avoid these long-term consequences."
Data from several national surveys indicate that about half of college drinkers engage in heavy episodic consumption. Binge drinking is typically defined as consuming five or more drinks in a row for men, four or more for women.
About 1,700 college students between the ages of 18 and 24 die each year from unintentional alcohol-related injuries, including motor vehicle crashes. And more than 97,000 students between the ages of 18 and 24 are victims of alcohol-related sexual assault or date rape, according to the American Psychiatric Association.
So that "30 reasons" list may provide friendly advice for those who need to be told when to call it a night.

Classic Cocktails & Drinks With A Funky Twist
A southern charm of a cocktail, the Alabama Slammer drink is made with four ingredients and is suitable for any season or occasion. Its complex yet delightful flavor of nutty, fruity, and refreshing along with its crimson hue are a hit.
You won’t have to look too hard to find a classic Alabama Slamma once you enter Crimson Tide territory of the University of Alabama, where the cocktail originated. Sometimes served as a shot , the Alabama Slammer recipe is simple to make at home and can be easily multiplied to make multiple cocktails.
Serve your Alabama Slammer recipe in a highball glass or glass tumbler over ice. Garnish with an orange and cherry and enjoy.
The popular cocktail can be served as a drink or as a shot. Its roots date back to the 1960s and 1970s as a shot at the University of Alabama, where the drink’s crimson hue matches the school’s beloved Crimson Tide.
Technically neither! SoCo is actually a liqueur made with low-quality whiskey blended with fruits and spices.
Amaretto is an almond-flavored liqueur that can be made with vodka like in this homemade recipe . The standard base is typically made with almonds or apricot pits.

Great drink. Question: is there a sub for Southern Comfort? Not my favorite (bad college experience🤪)
You could use any whiskey or bourbon, it will just take slightly different than the original since Southern Comfort is whiskey with fruit and spice accents. Hope you enjoy!
