a name for my newest #xna cocktail database app

Hi guys, I need your help. I'm looking for a new name for my cocktail database app.

This time it is focused on the database, there are more recipes (115 rigth now, growing) including this time the non-alcoholic ones, and there are lots of queries possible. You can search by ingredients (at least one matching and/or all matching), by genre, by tags (sweet, strong, fruity etc) and if there are more matches it indicates the matching percentage. Searches are fast and easy. All the ingredients are organized in a better way and I plan to extend the database of cocktails every couple of months.

It is clear it isn't a "Cocktail Paradise 2" it is too different and this is more database oriented than CP.


Names I'm planning to use:

  • 100+ COCKTAILS
  • COCKTAILS!
  • A cocktails database
  • The cocktails database
  • DRINKS!
  • 100+ DRINKS

I'm open to suggestion, the more original it is the better.

Cocktail Paradise update on the go

The update is actually in peer review phase, and it will fix some issues. The most important is a wrong conversion calculation CL -> FLOZ on some Xbox for some cocktails (really sorry).
I added also two new features: a slideshow, good to use an a cool screensaver during your parties, and a random pick, usefull when you want to try something new but you can't decide.

The update will be out soon but I can't say when, so check frequently the community games list, and see if there's the new version out.

a few words about Cocktail Paradise

What's Cocktail Paradise?
Cocktail Paradise is a lifestyle app available on Xbox360 (community games section).
It is a database of 100 cocktails with pictures of every single cocktail and complete instructions. The cool thing is that you can search your cocktail in a lot of differet ways: in a alphabetical order, by type and by ingredient, choosing one or more ingredient (more than 120).
Do you like cocktails containing orange juice or vodka? Select both the indredients and start mixing your cocktail.
