So you May-know(pun intended) me as a Stardew Valley enthusiast, but by night I'm a bartender… and I just HAD to experiment with some more… shall we say "unique?" flavors for my Stardew themed cocktails.
u/ConcernedApe once said "no way would I allow drinking mayonnaise" and then went ahead and allowed it anyway.
That got me thinking… could I actually make mayonnaise into a drink and make it GOOD in real life?
So I did.
Twice.
Here you go! Drinkable Mayo, two ways.
You're welcome (or I'm sorry… your pick)

Hey hi howdy and hello friends!
Alright so I did this as some joke drinks initially, and then it got a bit out of hand. Here are the recipes for Mayo two ways, great for April Fools day, but also not too bad imho. I drank them… will you?
“Did You Just…?”
Limeonayse (a weird take on a Brazilian limeade)
1.5 oz vodka (use coconut water for non-alcoholic)
0.75 oz lime juice
0.75 oz honey syrup (1:1 honey to water)
0.5 oz MAYONNASIE! (use a nice neutral oil mayo, like Hellmans. Avoid Avocado or Olive Oil mayo due to flavor leaning too savory here)
2 drops vanilla extract
Lime zest in shaker
small pinch of salt
Shake all of this HARD with ice, strain over fresh ice. Top with soda if wanted.
Notes: You can make this more airy by using a frother after the mix, or blending it in a blender. 8 oz glass with ice is ideal, I used a 12 oz glass with a little extra coconut water added.
“Why?!”
Mayo-Elote (Mexican Street Corn style drink thing)
1.5 oz Silver Tequila (Olmeca Altos Plata) or aloe juice for non-alcoholic
0.75 oz Corn Butter Syrup* (we make this ourselves, see below)
0.5 oz Kewpie Mayonnaise (or avocado mayo. Kewpie give a nice umami punch though)
0.75 oz Lime Juice
1-2 dash Habanero hot sauce
Pinch smoked paprika
Shake lime and mayo first to combine, add the rest, shake and strain over ice in a lime salt and Tajin rimmed glass, sprinkle cilantro and Tajin and maybe a bit of cotija.
Corn Butter Syrup
Used for this Elote drink and my Matinee Martini
Char 1 corn on the cob, cut kernels off, add cob and kernels with 1 cup water and 1 cup sugar and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and add in 1.25 tbs salted butter and combine. Cover, let it steep for 2 hrs. Remove cobs, blend the rest all together, strain and bottle.
I am disgusted and impressed and going to try this at some point
The one in the shorter glass looks absolutely delicious I must admit
i love bartenders we’re so creative
That’s the mayonaise effect
Krobus: “I’d like a glass of the black stuff”
I know you’re a damn good bartender!!!!! These are so creative and sound like they could work! Savory drinks have been such a trend in mixology lately!
