Salt(burn) on the rim: a recipe collection

By Griffin Brammer, Arts & Entertainment Editor

Inspired by the consumption and excess of everyone’s favorite, slutty, sleazy 2006 sex-fest, Saltburn, we’ve compiled a plethora of delectable drinks based on everyone’s favorite scenes. So whether you’re hosting a watch party and want to drink along, or simply want to have a party of Oliver’s-birthday-proportions, we have the recipes you need to have a murder on the dancefloor.

The “Vampire” Scene

Here’s a beverage fruitier than Elspeth the summer she was a lesbian. Men really ARE so nice and dry, take it from experience. In any case, this drink is a bloody good time. Period!

Ingredients:

1.5 oz vodka

1 oz raspberry liqueur, like raspberry Bacardi

0.5 oz lime juice

2 oz cranberry juice

2-3 oz sparkling white or rosé wine

Instructions:

  1. Combine vodka, raspberry liqueur, lime juice and cranberry juice to a shaker half-full of ice and shake to combine.
  2. Strain into glass and top off with sparkling wine.
  3. Optional: garnish with tampon swizzle stick.

For non-alcoholic enjoyment, replace vodka AND raspberry liqueur with raspberry soda (like the Raspberry Rose flavored Poppi, which can be found at Target or Kroger). Replace the sparkling wine with sparkling grape juice.

The Bath Scene

The real salt burn was the salty aftertaste of that bath water in Barry Keoghan’s mouth. So, let’s add a little sweetness with this viral TikTok recipe that will leave you gulping for more!

Ingredients:

2 oz light rum

2 oz pineapple juice (you know why…)

1.5 oz cream of coconut + additional for rim

Juice from half a lime

Instructions:

  1. Rim glass with cream of coconut and let… it… DRIP.
  2. Combine rum, pineapple juice, cream of coconut and lime juice into a shaker half-full of ice and shake to combine.
  3. Strain into rimmed glass and make the most egregious slurping noise known to man.

For non-alcoholic enjoyment, replace light rum with coconut water.

The Grave Scene

For the scene that puts a whole new meaning to the phrase “love you to death,” we’ve chosen a refreshing take on the classic Mudslide cocktail.

Ingredients:

4 oz RumChata

3 oz vodka

2 oz Kahlua or other Coffee Liqueur

1 oz white chocolate syrup, + additional for rim and garnish

Crushed Oreo cookie

Instructions:

  1. Rim glass with white chocolate syrup and set in fridge to chill
  2. Combine RumChata, vodka, Kahlua and white chocolate syrup into a shaker half-full of ice and shake to combine.
  3. Strain into chilled glasses, and top with crumbled Oreo.
  4. Finally, dig a hole in your Oreo “dirt” and generously fill with additional white chocolate “garnish” until you’ve come to terms with Jacob Elordi’s death. You never really loved him, anyway.

For non-alcoholic enjoyment, replace RumChata with Horchata, Kahlua with regular or cold brew iced coffee, and vodka with a splash of simple syrup.
