Get Blasted by 8-Bit Videogame Drinks:

September 12th, was National Videogame Day! Even if you’re not an a “gamer” mixed drinks are still a rather fun pastime. What’s not to love about all the colors in a nice layered drink, fancy bottles, and getting lit*. Even if you decide not to use these today, these are great drinks to have for all kinds of parties! Take a seat, watch a video, impress your friends by learning a drink (or five).

*(Lit is actually a jazz term born in the prohibition meaning buzzed)
