If It Bleeds We Can Kill It

The following is the second of my “Prey” inspired cocktails. The first one was my “Orange Totsiyaa” cocktail.
Imagine, if you will, being stalked by an otherworldly creature whose main goal is to hunt the most deadly game. Most of the few victims, that have seen its face and survived would describe it as “one ugly motherfucker”. It also likes to wear black fishnet all over its body. Although not the one from the “Prey” movie since that Yautja was the first to come to earth, but subsequent ones had a better fashion sense.
Anyways, if you’ve seen the movie “Prey” you know that our protagonist, Naru, ends up killing the Feral Yautja and brings back its head to her village.
One of the cool things about the Yautja, is that their blood is fluorescent green. So I made a cocktail inspired by its blood. Enjoy!
