There's an Adventurer's Club fan at Blizzard! The Kungaloosh is the signature beverage of the Adventurer's Club, a halfway improv, halfway scripted club at Walt Disney World's Pleasure Island. Sadly this club will be closing at the end of September 2008.

Kungaloosh: an all-purpose adventurers' term which, much like "aloha," can mean just about anything; e.g., hello, goodbye, wanna get lucky?, excuse me, there's toilet paper stuck to your shoe, etc.

The Adventurer's Club Creed

We climb the highest mountains,
just to get a better view.
We plumb the deepest oceans,
because we're daring through and through.
We cross the scorching desert,
martinis in our hand.
We ski the polar ice caps,
in tuxedos looking grand.
We are reckless, brave, and loyal,
and valiant to the end.
If you come in here a stranger,
you will exit as a friend.
KUNGALOOSH!

Even better, the Washed-Up Mage that gives the quest that results in this recipe is named Fletcher; Fletcher Hodges, perhaps - the Adventurer's Club curator.

"Come in a Stranger... Come Out a Little Stranger..."

For those who wish to taste the inspiration for this item. Here are the recipies to create the famous drink.

The real life recipe:
Old Kungaloosh Recipe - Circa 1997

1 1/4 ounce vodka
1 1/4 ounce Malibu Rum
3/4 ounce Midori (melon liqueur)
2 tablespoons pineapple juice
1 splash cranberry juice

Instructions:
Combine all ingredients in a shaker and mix well. Serve in a margarita glass.

New Kungaloosh Recipe - Since 2000

1 cup Daily's Strawberry Daiquiri Mix
1/4 cup orange juice
1/4 cup Captain Morgan's Spiced Rum
1/4 cup blackberry brandy

Instructions:
Toss all ingredients in a blender with enough ice to make it slushy. Blend it up good and serve in a margarita glass or a chilled collins glass.

Tips:
For a variation, try using a mixed juice blend such as peach, mango and orange juices instead of just plain orange juice. Be sure to keep the juice choice in the citrus/tropical juice group though.

On 3.0.8 PTR you can learn to make it from the washed up mage in the Dalaran sewers.

Making Kungaloosh costs 66 silver per 5 in mats with no rep discounts.

This is significantly cheaper than buying the comparable Honeymint Tea from vendors (1g 10s per 5)--and Kungaloosh gets you drunk, too!

Kommentar von Chariot

Extremely easy cooking points up to 400, which is when the (A)Vendor / (H)Vendor recipes kick in.

Sorry if wrong, but in the Episode where The simpsons goes to England, to get Homor`s car back, dosent he order Kungaloosh (To much even) while waiting for the parking guy to help him ?

Might just me mixing up words, cause of bad memory. But pretty sure its true ^^ If so, it could be a cool reference.

Man, it's amazing seeing a reference to the Adventurer's Club. I'm a huge WDW nerd, so this gave me that warm, happy feeling.

Using some napkin math, unless you're for some reason farming the fruit yourself you'd usually buy the berries from the vendors at 5 per stack; also, some people might try to resupply once their personal stash of drinks run low. Personally, I used to stock up on draenic waters every time mine drops to <15. So, to calculate the economic feasibility of kungaloosh:

-

(Ignoring faction discounts)

If I make my kungaloosh when I drop to 15, I'll need to make 1 stack (5). Making 1 stack of 5 kungaloosh requires 1 stack of berries (85 silver) + 1 stack of snowplum (1 gold 60 silver) = 2 gold 45 silver. 3 berries and 4 snowplums are wasted and can be vendored for 45 silver. Thus 40 silver per drink! At this point, buying Honeymint Tea is cheaper at 1 gold 10 silver per stack of 5 (22 silver each).

If I make my kungaloosh when I drop to 10, I'll still need 1 stacks of berries + 1 stack of snowplum = 2 gold 45 silver. Vendoring the extra fruit recovers 28 silver, thus each drink cost 21.7 silver.

If I make my kungaloosh when I drop to 5, I'll need 2 stacks of berries (1 gold 70 silver) + 1 stack of snowplum (1 gold 60 silver) to make 15 = 3 gold 30 silver. 4 berries and 2 snowplums are vendored for 33 silver. Each drink now costs 19.8 silver.

If I make a full stack of 20 kungaloosh, I'll still need 2 stacks of berries (1 gold 70 silver) + 1 stack of snowplum (1 gold 60 silver) = 3 gold 30 silver, which ends up at 15.67 silver per drink. Of course, no proper player would be caught not having any drinks in their bag at all wouldn't they. :P

Currently the highest item-level a cook can make (85).

I just wanted to add additionally, that the quest chain 'The Taste Test,' in Sholazar Basin closely resembles one of the shows that was performed at The Adventurers Club before it's 'demise.'

FYI - I was just at WDW 3 weeks ago however, and yes PI is all closed down and the clubs/ bars are empty...except for TAC, which still had it's theming in place and interior decor.

Kommentar von Lurdk

if you drink these and whisper someone while you are drunk... It will sometimes add "...hic!" to your message!

i would pay the extra gold to NOT get drunk every time i needed mana. usually don't like turning side to side, or dealing with blurred vision when i'm running around in a raid/dungeon/bg/farming/anywhere. i see people drinking this all the time and can't understand it.

Rhymes with "jungle juice."

All mats can be bought of of the Traveler's Tundra Mammoth Mount, the Travelling Trader. Easy cooking levelling 375-400

My roommate's recipe:

One bottle of orange-pineapple juice (preferably Simply Orange)
Roughly equal parts of Malibu coconut, mango and pineapple rum
Just enough blue curacao to make it match the color of the icon

Combine ingredients in margarita bucket (discard included margarita mix, because ew).
Add umbrella.
Apply to face.
Fall over.

This got our disc priest, who is an IRL Lutheran minister, completely sloshy...
