Schadenfreude Flip (alcohol) 

"Excuse me, bartender? I ordered a shot of straight Schadenfreude, but this is clearly a Schadenfreude Flip. Why do you even *make* those??"

if you were to make a mixed drink called a Schadenfreude Flip, what would you put in it?

(yeah I went looking for a shot of straight Schadenfreude but got a Flip instead last night why do you ask)

@green I think I might be qualified here, given my {REGULAR PONY} friend of the same name. A Schadenfreude should be something sweet, sour, and a bit astringent. Greenish-yellow, suitably changeling colors. Maybe a sweet black coffee drink with a floater of something herbal and nasty on top, like chartreuse or absinthe, like some sort of Caffe Incorretto? O:)

Looks like "flip" can mean a beer cocktail or something with frothed egg white. Hmmm. Changeling eggs. O:)

@zebratron2084 in my imagination "Schadenfreude" is--like Goldshlager; something you get in a bottle, pre-mixed--yeah, sweet, sour, and bitter, with a sharp kick. I like the frothed egg white... I was thinking the "flip" would involve some kind of rather nasty diet soda, like diet Mountain Dew. and an egg white. BLEARGH XD

@green I think the real core of a "flip" is the carbonation. I'm guessing the beer and sugar did it in the original by frothing up a whole bunch of little nucleation sites, so a soda-based flip would probably be perfectly valid! (FWIW, I would probably make it that way anyhow, since i loathe any sort of detectable egg in food. Eggs are for cakes, end of file. -_- )

@zebratron2084 ooh, yeah, that makes sense. and like I'm not suggesting this as a drink that people should actually drink, the idea is that it's inherently horrible and nobody actually *wants* it. Schadenfreude straights are an acquired taste to begin with, but even people who like those don't like the flips. XD

Schadenfreude Flip (alcohol) 

@green Yeah, but you're talking to someone who's been actively seeking a bottle of Jeppson's Malört for at least a decade. XD

(Without success, probably luckily...)

@anthracite @green Can they ship to Washington State, though? That's been the usual stumbling block to my self-destruction. XD

Schadenfreude Flip (alcohol) 

@zebratron2084 Annoyingly enough no, the online store they direct me to has it in stock at a bunch of locations, but doesn't seem to have it in stock for their online store?!?

But here I am on theliquorbarn.com with a bottle of it in my cart and an estimated shipping cost that is almost as much as a bottle of the stuff itself. You're gonna regret this and you know it...

@anthracite HOW DOES THIS DIFFER SUBSTANTIALLY FROM THE REST OF OUR RELATIONSHIP? 😺​

Schadenfreude Flip (alcohol) 

@anthracite You can not imagine how much I am looking forward to this. XD

Schadenfreude Flip (alcohol) 

@zebratron2084 Do you think you could use it as a component of a Schadenfreude Flip?

Schadenfreude Flip (alcohol) 

@anthracite I don't see how I *couldn't*. If it lives up even halfway to its reputation, anything it TOUCHES will become a Schadenfreude Flip...

Schadenfreude Flip (alcohol) 

@zebratron2084 also I may be recording you drinking this and sharing the results

because it's not a Schadenfreude Flip without OTHER PEOPLE ENJOYING YOUR SUFFERING

Schadenfreude Flip (alcohol) 

@anthracite @green You buy it, Miss Dragon, and I'll drink it...

Schadenfreude Flip (alcohol) 

@zebratron2084 @anthracite and I'll have to come over sometime and at least try it, and maybe work out a Schadenfreude Flip that *isn't* horrible... :P

@anthracite

@green @zebratron2084

Binnys is good for finding weird stuff, yep yep!

Schadenfreude Flip (alcohol) 

@green Jägermeister, dark rum, and an egg-white, shaken until full-bodied.

Schadenfreude Flip (alcohol) 

@literorrery @Thaminga omg both of these are fascinating, plausible, and utterly disgusting. XD thank you... I think!

Schadenfreude Flip (alcohol) 

@green Everclear, Mtn Dew Baja Blast™, and like, the flavor packet from a serving of instant ramen. *Maybe* some sparkling water to finish it all off.

It's called the Schadenfreude Flip after the emotion everyone else gets to experience after you order one.
