The Mind Eraser – A Caffeinated Kick from the '80s
Ah, the '80s, a decade of bold fashion, big hair, and some of the most fun cocktails you could imagine. One such gem is the Mind Eraser. This drink is essentially a fizzy twist on the classic Black Russian, a cocktail born in late '40s Brussels. While the Black Russian combines vodka and coffee liqueur in a two-to-one ratio, the Mind Eraser keeps it simple with equal parts of both, topped off with club soda for that effervescent kick.
The beauty of this cocktail lies in its simplicity. You can build it directly in the glass, no shaking required. Many bartenders choose to layer the Mind Eraser for a visually appealing dark-to-clear effect.
A Word of Caution
Don't let the name fool you—the Mind Eraser won't actually erase your memories, but it is a potent cocktail. Sip one or two, and the stresses of the day will fade away. But be cautious, as too many too quickly could have you living up to the cocktail's tongue-in-cheek name!
