A Bar Drink Called Purple Rain? A friend on Facebook, knowing that I'm a Prince fan, sent me this picture of an alcoholic drink called a Purple Rain. I don't know if it's a real drink on bar menu, but the next time I'm out with friends, I plan on ordering one! Um, Prince lawyers, I didn't make up the name and I'm not trying to infringe on copyrights or anything. Please don't sue me! Thanks!

Yep, Reflex (the 80's themed nightclub chain) have a Purple Rain cocktail too. And a Thriller one. |

But if HitnRun is a huge MEGA success, don't count on it having its own drink. | |

They always had a Purple Rain drink at Prince night at Berlin in Chicago. I have no idea what was in it, but it was nicknamed the "brain eraser." We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

Had one of those years ago down on the Embankment in London | |

Just be sure not to confuse it with Purp, which is something else entirely... "Had to get off the boat so I could walk on water..." | |

They sure did! IIRC, it was kind of like a Long Island but with some purple modifications. "That's when stars collide. When there's space for what u want, and ur heart is open wide." | |

I've had it, but wasn't keen sadly. | |

Purple Rain drink has been in the D for years. | |

It sucks! My sister and I made it a few years ago and could barely drink it. It's just way too sweet. Yuk!

Those ingredients do not make as pretty a shade of purple as what is pictured. They had these at the bar at the HitNRun DC show and I've tried making them before too.... they taste pretty bad and turn out ugly. <insert price is right losing horn> | |

...probably 'cos it lists Cranberry Juice rather than Chambord. "Had to get off the boat so I could walk on water..." | |

I've had it at a few student dives and clubs and it's always been pretty sickly, but they probably take shortcuts with the recipe in those places. Heavenly wine and roses seems to whisper to me when you smile...
