"Hermes Melon Liqueur"
If you've never heard of this,it's probably because they changed its name to Midori in 1978. Midori is an interesting honeydew liqueur;it's bright green colour and unique textured bottle make it look like something a Romulan or elf would drink. It's a rare ingredient in Tiki cocktails,but can make a very nice drink.
Mix #16 Fink Bomb
1oz Cruzan coconut rum* 1oz Midori 3oz pineapple juice 1/2oz Stroh 160-proof rum*
Fill a double old fashioned glass with ice,then pour in the following order: coconut rum,Midori,pineapple,and then float the Stroh's on top.
*I used Shipwreck coconut and Lemon Hart 151.
A friend sent me this recipe after buying the book Liquid Vacation from Frankie's Tiki Room. He used Parrot Bay and Kōloa Kauaʻi Dark Rum. It looked cool,so I tried it. I first used Thrashers(pictured),but later switch to Shipwreck,and used Lemon Hart 151 for the float. Stroh's is a spiced rum while LH is Demerara,so I think my version is probably smoother. While Frankie's wants you to use a straw and go up from the bottom,I prefer drinking it from the lip to get to the 151 first. Overall it's a very nice mixture of rum and sweet and it's made its way into my regular rotation of mixings.
Mix #17 Midori Cactus Juice
1oz coconut rum 1oz vodka 1oz Midori 3oz pineapple juice splash of club soda
Shake everything together except soda. Pour into glass,top with soda,and stir.
After trying the Fink Bomb,I became interested in Midori and did some searching on the 'net for recipes where I found this on Midori's site. A very smooth sweet drink that works well as a cooler.
Mix #18 Midori Illusion
1/2oz vodka 2oz Midori 1/2oz triple sec* 1oz pineapple juice 1oz lemon juice
*I used Pierre Ferrand dry curacao.
Meh,maybe triple sec would have worked better,but this just didn't do it for me. It just didn't taste like a properly balanced drink. Doubt I'd try it again with triple sec.
Mix #19 Japanese Slipper
1oz Midori 1oz Cointreau* 1oz lemon juice
*I used Solerno blood orange.
Again,maybe I should've followed the original recipe and used Cointreau,but this just didn't do it for me. Way too orange forward and bitter. Of course I did get the recipe off Wikipedia,so maybe they're to blame. In any case,with only two ounces of low octane liqueur,it's not a bad drink for lightweights.
Mix #20 Scooby Snack
3/4oz coconut rum 3/4oz Midori 3/4oz creme de bananes 3/4oz pineapple juice 2oz whipped cream
Shake everything except whipped cream and pour into glass. Top with whipped cream and pineapple wedge for garnish.
Found this after reading the Wikipedia page for Midori. Most sites say it's named for the famous cartoon,but History of Shots says it was named for a Japanese doctor of holistic medicine named Nishiwaki Scooby. Since it uses Midori(originally produced in Japan) I'm going with their version. It's a very interesting drink in that it starts out banana-y,then the melon kicks in,and it leaves you with a coconut finish. Quite nice actually,and you can use it as a Halloween drink.
Until next time,Sayōnara!

SPOILERS FOR YTTD 3-1B
I was on the part when Keiji show up. I started yelling and all and then Midori said rule violation. I thought why tho? and Midori said Keiji use Mishima’s collar. I was thinking of why not Shin collar... I mean he unlock his own collar. Keiji can just pick it up... and yeah I thought Keiji had both of Shin and Mishima’s collar when Midori said “you use it.”
Ah I finish the kanna / alice rote now.

YTTD SPOILERS BELOW!!
late to the party but Jeandori!
context behind the names: in my first YTTD play through i named him Missouri, and in the second Ulysses S. Grant. i have forgotten this numerous times and had to do a double take why the cast was enemies with a long dead union general
my friend asked me to write an essay about the midori head spin and then I did
@rock-doodles-shit this is all your fault
I am sure you know of this scene, and I am sure you can remember how you reacted when you first got to it in the game. We all know that it’s funny as balls and incredibly memorable, but I feel as though we don’t appreciate it quite as much as we should. So today I will be telling you why Midori spinning his head in the middle of the banquet was a necessary addition to the story, not because I actually think so, but because it would be really funny.
(These are all things that nankidai probably had in mind while writing the scene, it’s just that he most likely didn’t spend an hour and a half writing them out in great detail)
