Pancakes and Cocktails?

Question

What's the best thing to put on Pancakes?
What's the best kind of alcoholic Cocktail drink? (easies to make the better)?
Recepies for either would be greatful

Answer 1

Best pancakes, add chopped banana's and cinnamon to them!
For the best drink, I don't really like cocktails, but Jose Quervo, and their margarita mix is easier than ever!

Answer 2

If I don't have fruit in the pancakes like blueberries or banana, then I like to put on fresh strawberries or a low sugar jam instead of maple syrup.
Try balsamic vinegar reduced in half in a warm pan and a teaspoon of vanilla extract poured over fresh strawberries, mmmmm!

A good cocktail is Bacardi rum and any fruit juice, frozen fruit or fresh fruit either blended with ice or on the rocks (daiquiri).

Answer 3

A great cocktail to go with the pancakes is a Mimosa. Half OJ, half champagne. Yummy!!!! On second thought, I'll just skip the pancakes.

Answer 4

Best thing to put on pancakes is syrup and butter.
Great pancake recipe:
1 cup flour
1tblsp sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1 beaten egg
1 cup milk
2 tblsp oil

Best alchoholic coctail drink is a mojito- a cuban drink I think. It's got lime, sugar and rum I think. I'd do a google search for a mojito recipe.

Answer 5

On pancakes:
Butter and Sugar
OR
Butter and Warm Syrup

With pancakes:
Mimosa (Champagne and OJ)
Bloody Mary (Bloody Mary mix, vodka, stalk of celery)

Answer 6

blueberries on pancakes is wonderful, also i like a little coconut sprinkled w/ powdered sugar and pineapple chunks w/ hot maple syrup....ummmmm

keep it simple w/ the alcohol: fuzzy naval w/ very little orange juice and peach schnapps, vodka

or vodka and Ocean Spraywhite cranberry peach juice (mixed drink over ice)

Answer 7

my favourites are fried mushrooms wrapped into pancakes. serve with sauce made of fried onions, mushrooms and sourcream.
other choices:

cheese
banana
curd with rasins
spinach with ricota

(wrapped into pan-sized pancakes an fried again)

Answer 8

my kids love strawberry banana pancakes ....just make your batter like normal and then smash up bananas and mix it in the batter. cook your cakes.
make strawberry sauce like you would for strawberry shortcake and top the cakes.
you can add chocolate chips to the batter too!
