The IT University of Copenhagen Scrollbar student group runs a weekly bar every Friday called Fredagbar. Since the college has a special program devoted to Media Technology and Games, it only makes sense that quite a few students are video games fans. Two of the group’s recent Fredagbars involved popular video game franchises, Super Mario (February 15, 2008) and Final Fantasy (May 9, 2008), and for each series custom cocktails were created.

Thankfully, the good students of Scrollbar realized that gaming fans around the world would be interested in the various concoctions created, Webpages were created for each event, providing a few pictures showing the Fredagbar bar area, guests (many dressed as Mario or FF characters) and drinks as well as the drinks’ recipes - complete with suggested prices. Its really helpful, as others may want to try and duplicate the experience.

Mike Khamphokeo, Douglas Wilson, Martin Colith and Martin Woo created the Super Mario drinks, while Khamphokeo created the FF drink recipes on his own. Reportedly the Yoshi, Waltz on the Moon, Summoner Yuna and Aerith were the most popular drinks at their respective events. Also the Waltz on the Moon drink was in such demand at the Final Fantasy event that it was been added to the Fredagbar drink list for all events.

I want to go on record saying that the Moogle drink looks yummy. I mean come on, strawberry, raspberry, peach, milk and whipped cream is a can’t miss. The Goomba, Princess Peach, Diamond Dust and Waltz on the Moon look good as well. I don’t think I’d try the Corrupted Lifestream though - that looks like it has the potential to wreck havoc on your insides.
