You guys – Gotham is back tonight! I absolutely love Gotham. Hubs and I decided to watch it on a whim (because even though I’m a Marvel girl, I’ll always love Batman) and we fell in love with the show. I know a lot of people have issues with it since there are many things that seem to be different from canon stuff, but to us it’s just so good.
So tonight is the Season 2 Mid-Series premiere where we will finally get to meet Mr Freeze. I will admit that when I think of Mr Freeze I 100% think of Arnold Schwarzenegger in his role …and more specifically all of his terrible puns. Also, am I the only one that was madly in love with Chris O’Donnell when he was Robin? No? Good 🙂
I’m really excited to see where they take this character in Gotham. So far, I’ve really enjoyed the villains and what they’ve done with them. I was disappointed we didn’t get to see Jerome become The Joker since he was obviously perfect for that, however everything related to Penguin is all I could want from this show. To celebrate meeting the newest Mr Freeze, I’ve made a delicious (seriously, you have to try this) Mr Freeze cocktail to enjoy while watching the premier tonight.
The Mr Freeze Cocktail
This drink is seriously crazy good. I could easily have a whole pitcher to myself. I’m so excited to share this with you guys and if you booze, definitely give this a try.
- Simple syrup or light corn syrup (to rim the glass)
- Shredded coconut (to rim the glass)
- 6 cups ice
- 1/2 cup vanilla vodka (could also use plain vodka or rum)
- 1/2 cup blue curaçao
- 1 cup pineapple juice
- 1/2 cup coconut cream
- Rim the glasses first. Pour some simple syrup or corn syrup and the shredded coconut onto separate plates. Dip the rim of the glasses in the syrup first, followed by the coconut.
- Place the ice, vodka, blue curacao, pineapple juice, and coconut cream into a blender until desired consistency is reached. Pour into glasses and serve.
- Can also make on the rocks by pouring ingredients into a shaker and serving over ice.
I could not drink this fast enough and Hubs liked it and he basically only drinks bourbon or IPAs. Even if you’re not into Gotham or Batman, this is a great cocktail year round. It looks festive in a wintery sort of way, but would be perfect to cool off in the summer as well. I hope you enjoy this and can’t wait to finally meet Gotham’s Mr Freeze tonight!
Are you planning to watch the Gotham mid-season premiere tonight? Who’s your favorite character on the show?
I want to rush home and make this cocktail! It looks and sounds delicious!
It is seriously so good 🙂
I loved Chris O’Donnell as Robin too <3 Glad i'm not the only one – those movies always get so much stick, but I actually kind of loved how campy they were.
So glad I’m not the only one that loved him – I enjoyed those movies even though they got a lot of flack :p
Mmmmm this looks yummy! Although I’ll have a put a pin in it until baby has left the building 😉 xx
Definitely make one after baby is here 🙂
This sounds delicious!
I watched most of S1 of Gotham, but found it hard to get into, I may have to give it a second chance at some point though as I’ve heard good things about this season.
There was a lot going on in Season 2 – I’d say it’s worth one more try and if not, you have at least have a tasty cocktail to enjoy instead haha 🙂
Yum this sounds delicious! I’m not a fan of Gotham, but I would love to try this cocktail
It’s definitely delicious – hope you like it!
Um, YUM! I’ll definitely be trying this one, despite never having watched Gotham:P I keep hearing awesome things about it though!
No need to watch Gotham to enjoy a tasty cocktail :p
I am so making some of these!
Let me know what you think when you make it 🙂
This sounds delicious! And I NEED to start watching Gotham!!! <3 <3 <3 <3
It’s got teenaged Catwoman – you’d love it 🙂
This sounds delicious! I am definitely going to have to try this out the next time me and my friends get together! They all love Gotham (but i have yet to watch it, but hopefully start soon)! But hey, this cocktail would be great to drink WHILE starting to watch it lol! ;D
Definitely give the show a try…and with a little cocktail, of course :p
Yum!!! This cocktail looks delicious! And super adorable!
Thanks – I think the little Mr. Freeze really made the photo :p
This cocktail is calling my name! 😀 I need to try this out! 🙂 Thanks for sharing it!
I hope you like it when you try it 😀
You know I tried the first episode at someone’s house and it was very chaotic and difficult to watch it over the conversations others were having. And they didn’t set me up very well commenting on how bad the show was. I want to give it a chance! I just have to find the time.
I love this cocktail! Sounds so islandly and yummy!
I hope you get another opportunity to try out the show. This drink definitely does have a tropical taste to it 🙂
