#16 Cocktail: Alabama Slammer

     The legend has it that the Alabama Slammer was invented  at the University of Alabama in 1975, although further details about the origins of the cocktail are hazy. It is claimed to have been made famous by Green Bay Packers quarterback, Brett Favre. However, the drink was popular with the college crowds as early as the 1980s when it was served as a shaker shot in many bars and also available as a pitcher in T.G.I.
