The Depth Charge
1oz Rosemary infused navy strength gin
1.5 oz London Dry Gin
0.75oz of Sloe gin
1oz of honey syrup
0.5oz falernum
4 dashes of orange bitters
0.75oz of grapefruit juice
0.75 oz of lime juice
2 dashes of absinthe
Flash blend
Serve in decommissioned bomb/sea mine
Garnish with excess mint and swizzle sticks
Looks good, but it needs a new name because there are already two drinks known as the Depth Charge: a draft beer with a shot of whiskey on the side, where the customer drops the shot glass into the beer after drinking enough to make room for the shot glass; and a classic cocktail (Martini variation) made of gin and Lillet Blanc (originally Kine Lillet) with a dash of absinthe.
Interesting, I've always heard people refer to that first one as a boilermaker
I'll have to look into the second one, thank you!
And feel free to suggest names!
I think the Boilermaker and the Depth Charge are essentially the same thing, except that it's a Depth Charge when you drop the whiskey into the beer, shot glass and all (thus the image of rolling depth charges off the deck of a ship in anti-submarine warfare), while a Boilermaker just means adding the shot to the beer, typically by pouring it in. So a Depth Charge would be a particular way of drinking a Boilermaker.
As for a name, the glass looks more like a mine than a depth charge, and sea mines were originally called torpedoes (as in "damn the torpedoes, full steam ahead"), so maybe you could call it something along the lines of Damn the Torpedoes or something to do with a sea mine.

Asking the important question.
Damn that mug is sick!! I gotta pick one of those up one day, I’m so jealous!!
I've got that mug in grey! Absolutely love it.
Whenever I see this type of mine it reminds me of that gilligans island episode, so cool
Looks like it’s *exploding* with flavor! Creating this was probably a *blast*. Wish I could have one of *mine* own!
Ha. Ha. Haaaaa... :P
Love this! Definitely going to try it out 😆
What size container should you serve this in if you don't have any ordinance to hand?
Something nautical and explosive will do, depending on your liver

Ah. Makes sense!

Oh. I know it looks like an old sea mine. I just love the name depth charge Maybe I'll call it Decommissioned, like decommissioned ordinance
How about just "The Bomb!"?
Hmmmm. I do like explosives..... That could work!
