An Aussie vodka flogger was at my local piss shop last week, extollng the virtues of Melbourne voddy over my choices of Frog, Polish, Russian, or even New Zealand distilled leg opener. I’m not sure whether Bloody Oath would have been my choice for a theme, particularly for a somewhat girly looking herb vodka mixture, especially when the NZ Vodka 42 Below goes for a cat that looks like Hitler theme. Would anyone, ANYONE ask for a Coke ‘n Oath at a bar? I do like how they understand that Aussies may need to actually be instructed to drink the “short cocktail” after making it. No doubt many would end up standing around confused if that last step hadn’t been added.
I am willing to do a review if principal Oath floggers want to send me a bottle.
Bloody oath! – One of the hallmarks of the great Australian vernacular, which has been yelled with gusto for generations by miners through to politicians alike.
The social leveller – the emphatic “yes” – the roar that all are in complete agreement!
A unique liqueur made with the finest Australian Vodka infused with a secret mixture of extracts from the purest of indigenous herbs and spices.
Take the oath! Straight up, on the rocks or mixed.
There’s also a name the cocktail competition which I hesitate to bring to the attention of some potty mouthed commenters.
The Fuck’n'Oath… apply one bottle to Perth strumpet, and fuck!
Troy’s favourite tipple?
Adele counts as a strumpet these days?
Yes (I shall refrain from commenting on her BMI)

Jeeze, that’s a harsh judgement. Stupid yes, Bad choice of FB, yes.
You’ll be lumping her in with the Scarborough Sluts next.
35% ? pffft, cats piss
Buffalo Cunt
30ml Bloody Oath
30ml Orange Juice (NOT pulp free- it’s for texture)
50ml Midori
Mix together in a highball glass. Place glass on seat of chair. Sniff deeply, savouring the sharp aroma, and drink.
Winner. Maybe sprinkled with buffalo grass?
Nice touch, very classy.
the cocktail naming competition is now closed
bugger
I had a good one:
a Bloodsnatch
Clit Tickler?
a Classy Shove?
Munted Cunt?
With milk – a White Australian
a Bloody Hanson?
Cane and Able?
Cleaveur.
Well I, for one, am looking forward to the day when all alcohol advertising and glamorous labeling goes the way of tobacco.
The inability of people to enjoy themselves sober is pitiful.
I’ve spent too much of my life helping the victims of alcoholism; wives and children especially.
No humour here.
You’re talking about devestating the blogging drunk in pyjamas industry Rolly. Surely responsible drunken smartarsery is OK?
I’d rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy
That would be the BloodNut and Coke’n'Death.
Whinging welshman.
The boy child I’d like to trade on a bad day has been saved by the calming affects of wine on many occassions.
My Grandmother swore by brandy.
One little glass and I was much more sociable.
I slept very well.
I haven’t got used to it. The new layout is too big.
Fair suck of the sav – I know it may be considered unaustralian of me but i fucking hate aussie colloquialisms – they shit me beyond belief. a href=”http://www.holidayoz.com.au/features/slang.htm”>Arrrrrrrghh.

Strewth, turn it up, ya wowser!
“humping the bluey: what a hobo (swaggie) does”
Humping the greenie – what a buswell does
They don’t know how to spell Derow properly.
Errrrr…
With ya MP. One things that strikes me about the usual kind of list of Aussie colloquialisms is that I’ve never heard of at least half of them, which leads me to think they are largely made-up. Except if Alf used one in an episode of Home & Away circa 1988.
Agreed. The only one I will abide is ‘youse’, which I consider to be our greatest contribution to the English language.
I recall many years ago young Miss Shazza trying to get our attention by calling for “You twos”. At which point Shazza corrected: “[Miss Shazza], it’s not ‘you twos’, it’s ‘youse two’.”
Sad to say Bento but most likely it’s Irish.

Youse is all a pack a cunts.
I think ‘dunny’ and ‘chunder’ rank quite high.
“Finest Australian Vodka”.
Wtf?
Can someone point out to me the “most shithouse Australian Vodka”.
Right here friend.
Is Volsk produced here?
Alongside the Devolvo.
oh, I just checked out their website – awful shite
Push button. Receive bakon.
Awesome Snuff. Just reminded of how funny the Adams Family actually was, man. But why am I up at 4.30am?
Always a pleasure, NF#1. And … probably because that’s the best time for replying to comments in other threads.
Is this beer im unsure it looks unhealthy anyway.
