A Brief History of Absolut
Recently, our mixer attended an intensive vodka mixing course to better our mixing skills. One of the highlights of the course was a discussion about the history of Absolut Vodka, the official poison of choice for PARTYMAKERS. Absolut Vodka was founded in 1869 by Mr. Absolut (hence it is called absolut vodka, duh) who was an aspiring artist at the Stockholm Academy of Fine Arts. In his spare time, he liked to doodle gay pictures of lions with sky-blue eyes. However, lions were all he could draw, thus he focused his attention on his other passion-- getting wasted.
However, his success in his newfound passion was not all smooth sailing. The black community at that time did not favour his liquor because they did not identify with the lack of colour, and thus sales plummeted. Being the ever resourceful person he is, Mr. Absolut introduced Absolut Afrika in 1889 and won the hearts of the black community. It is simply normal vodka in a black bottle, but it fooled them nonetheless. We hear it will be enjoy a revival due to its popularity amongst Hip-Hop singers.
We have probably all seen the man in the medallion featured on the bottles, but have you ever wondered who the hell it is? Yes! It is Pavarotti! Apparently Mr. Absolut was a patron of the performing arts, and was such a fan of Pavarotti that he featured him on all his bottles. As you can see he went through many ideas, such as Charlie Chaplin (top right), and a bushel of marijuana (bottom right), but he finally decided putting Pavarotti on a medallion was the best way to pay tribute to his "life partner".
Wow, Absolut has really come a long way to becoming the iconic drink it is today. This is due to the company's multiple efforts to create new flavours, such as Absolut Pears, Absolut Citron and Absolut Peppar. It will also be introducing regional flavours, like Absolut Urea, 40% vodka with 60% NeWater-- only in Singapore!
No we are just kidding-- that flavour will be available all around the world and released on Singapore Day.
Mr. Absolut is really my hero-- look how talented he is! Here, he is trying to build a glass house shaped like an absolut bottle to house the billions he's earned from making people wasted. There will be a giant jacuzzi filled with what else? Vodka! situated right where the bottle cap is supposed to be. Unfortunately i think he's no longer around.
Uh Oh, looks like Mr. Absolut does not care about saving trees! He wrapped all the bottles in paper! Thankfully, during the Hippies movement in the seventies, millions of hippies, after getting wasted on absolut, thought it would be a great idea to write on tons of paper to lodge a petition against such a waste of paper! therefore, absolut now comes naked.
Alright! hope u enjoyed the concise and interesting history of absolut! Remember, our mixers are now certified VERY GOOD by the Absolut National Association of Liquor. On a related note, we are officially in business, so please do help to spread the word. Our rates are very competitive and will be released online, so watch out for it!

Par-tay at GARY'S
Hello everybody!
Its been a month of non-stop, no-time-to-even-shit mugging for the partymakers but even then we have time to party. This time we played mixers for GARY'S sausagefest 2007, an annual party where the hottest guys in medicine meet and get drunk.
However, GARY, having drank too much, totally forgot to bring back our KICK-ASS photos of the party back. So if u see someone who looks like this:
PLEASE spank his butt because if not for him, this post could have been a lot more colourful.
However, it'll be just a matter of time before he defects back to malaysia and sends us the photos, so till then stay tuned for the photos we took of us burning raj's notes and stuff.
On that note, we also created a few cocktails specially for the mugging season.
Firstly, you must BURN YOUR NOTES! that's the only way to free yourself from the mindless constraints of paper. u must think beyond the box.
Secondly, collect the ashes.
Third, prepare 1 measure of BOMBAY SAPPHIRE. WHY? because all of our best anatomy professors are Indian! (DHEEN, RAJ, GOPAL)
And what do they drink in India? BOMBAY SAPPHIRE!
Bring out the hidden indian in you by drinking bombay sapphire.
Lastly mix all the ingredients into a shot glass and top up with redbull for wings.
Drink RIGHT before your exams and you'll definitely do well! BUT everyone must drink it ok? (We know we wouldn't...)
alcohol is good for exams-- A healthcare message from Dr. Jiang and Dr. Lim
Once again thanks to gary for his letting us try our drinks. And another reason why you should hire us: WE MAKE LOSSES SO YOU DONT!
thats right, we made a loss but it doesnt matter as long as everyone got high.
Thats our, like, mission statement or something.

Happyfuntime CNY
Happy Gong Xi Fa Cai to everybody!
We at Partymakers sure know how to enjoy this festive season.
Besides cheating at mahjong, mugging, stealthily creeping into strangers' houses to solicit hongbaos from unsuspecting aunties, mugging, playing poker with rabbit candy and ferreros, and mugging, the partymakers have also racked their brains can have come up with two absolutely delightful festive cocktails.
Presenting our festive collection 2007:
The eighty-eight
2 measures of Absolut Mandarin + I slice of ripe mandarin
Chew the mandarin so that it mixes with the alcohol
Serving instructions:
1) Gather a bunch of mahjong buddies
2) Shout YAM SENG loudly as you hoist the EIGHTY-EIGHT into the air
3) At the end of SENG, bang your 88 loudly on the table and bottoms up
P.S. You will probably want to pretend to drink it. After repeating a few rounds of this we assure you'll be the MAHJONG KING and win a lot of money.
Crouching Orange, Hidden Hangover
1 Measure Triple Sec + 1 Measure Galliano + Top up with Florida Natural
Flame the Mandarin peel before serving
This is the perfect drink for serving aunties. It looks innocent enough, but IT PACKS A HIDDEN PUNCH!
plus it tastes really good. we promise
also when the aunties are drunk enough, pretend you havent received your angbow.
you can then repeat until they're drunk or out of money.
(Can also be used on pretty daughters of your mums' colleagues)
On this note we would like all a happy cny and mugging season.
remember! no party begins till we say so
SO hire us the next time u wanna have a fun party!!!
(not now though.. we got exams)
