Straight bottles
Hey, come-on, in this edition you don’t really expect
straight ‘straight’ bottles do you?
We get to start off with five New
Zealand bottles four of which are
also shot glasses. Unfortunately they
are plastic. The Sex on the Beach
bottles are from the Ready to Drink
Cocktail Company and contain the
well known cocktail, Sex on the
Beach – what else?
Orgasm and Dirty Girl were banned.
We few collectors who have them
mainly owe a debt of gratitude to
Erica Mulder who made some
‘disappear out of the back door!’
They were made by Portion Pack,
together with a range of other shot
glass bottles that do not fit with this
article.
Pocket Shots (work it
out) is a bag of vodka
from South Africa – I’m sure the lady
could tempt me!
Striker ‘Bottoms Up’ is another vodka,
this time from Scotland.
I know that there are
lots of bottles like this
from Germany but
have only been able
to locate a few.
Freudenspender (joy
spender is the literal English translation) 25ml bottle of
40% vodka. Suber Arsch is another bottle from
Krugmann (see first article). I don’t need to translate this
one!
We start the next page with Schlupfer Sturmer (slip
storm is the literal English translation). This is a rum
based liqueur. Next to it is Feige Eva (cowardly Eva
– presumably because she is wearing a fig leaf), a
vodka concoction. I have no idea as to what is in the
third bottle. Scharfer Hüpfer translates as Sharp
Hop. I have no idea about the bottle on the right.
