17.) The Porcelain Warrior & Mushu (Mulan)
Ingredients:
Porcelain Warrior
- Cherry Sake
- Lychee Syrup
- Mango Vodka
Mushu
- Absolut Peppar
- Sriracha
- Pepper
Depending on where you live the ingredients for the Mushu will more than likely be easier for you to find than the ingredients for the Porcelain warrior, but that little shot definitely has what it takes to put a fire in your belly. The Porcelain Warrior, on the other hand, is more of a sophisticated drink for college students with access to an Asian market.

Wacky Races was arguably one of the best Hanna Barbera shows of all time, and now there is a drink to honor one of the prime icons of the television series, Penelope Pitstop. Just because the show is about racing doesn’t mean you have to race to finish the drink, but that sounds like fun as well.
